Folks, With the v1 catalog, the client now has a list of manifests needed to install a package at the beginning of the evaluation process. This means that it's possible to download all of the manifests using a piplined HTTP request, instead of asking for the manifests one by one.
With Bart's SAT wad, the necessary manifests are computed ahead of time, making it very easy to prefetch the needed data before evaluation begins. The following change introduces a transport method that prefetches manifests using a pipelined HTTP request. Once I've putback, the SAT solver can use these methods to quickly get the manifests before they are needed. I merged and tested with the SAT workspace, to ensure that this would indeed work as advertised. There should be only a few lines necessary in imageplan.py to get this to work with SAT. http://cr.opensolaris.org/~johansen/webrev-12128/ Thanks, -j _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
