4. Technical Description
libpool : addition of pool_is_readonly_property public interface
A new f"unction pool_is_readonly_property" to be added to the existing pool
property manipulation functions. This function provides a method to determine
whether a pool property is readonly or not.
The above is to be added to facilitate more economic retrieval of pool
properties via poold and other consumers which currently suffer performance
issues when retrieving large numbers of properties in the case where we have
many components in a pool configuration (see CR 6836221), this change enables
consumers to determine whether a property is readonly and therefore can be
stored to subsequently be used without having to make further calls into
libpool each time the property value is required.
The libpool change will require an update to the man page man/3LIB/libpool
as follows:
