Title: Message Title

Adam Bottchen created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6510 selmodule provider should only list modules once Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Kylo Ginsberg Components: Client Created: 2016/07/15 10:38 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Adam Bottchen With a selmodule resource such as: selmodule { 'test': ensure => present, selmodulepath => '/usr/share/selinux/test.pp', syncversion => true, } The provider runs semodule --list twice, once for exists? and once for syncversion: Debug: Selmodule[test](provider=semodule): Checking for module test Debug: Executing '/usr/sbin/semodule --list' Debug: Selmodule[test](provider=semodule): Checking syncversion on test Debug: Executing '/usr/sbin/semodule --list' Debug: Selmodule[test](provider=semodule): load version 1.1 Debug: Selmodule[test](provider=semodule): file version 1.1 The semodule --list command takes around 2-3 seconds to execute, which causes a large performance hit when there are multiple selmodule resources. This impact could be cut in half if the command was only run once and the data cached for the syncversion function. It could be cut even more dramatically if semodule --list was stored as a fact and the output merely referenced in the provider.
