checkout_acl_map()

Acl_map * Acl_cache::checkout_acl_map	(	Security_context *	sctx,
		Auth_id_ref &	uid,
		List_of_auth_id_refs &	active_roles
	)

Returns a pointer to an acl map to the caller and increase the reference count on the object, iff the object version is the same as the global graph version.

If no acl map exists which correspond to the current authorization id of the security context, a new acl map is calculated, inserted into the cache and returned to the user. A new object will also be created if the role graph version counter is different than the acl map object's version.

Parameters

sctx	The target Security_context
uid	The target authid
active_roles	A list of active roles

Returns

A pointer to an Acl_map

Return values

!NULL	Success
NULL	A fatal OOM error happened.

create_acl_map()

Acl_map * Acl_cache::create_acl_map ( uint64  version, Security_context *  sctx  )

private

Creates a new acl map for the authorization id of the security context.

Parameters

version	The version of the new map
sctx	The associated security context

flush_cache()

void Acl_cache::flush_cache

(

)

Removes all acl map objects with a references count of zero.

increase_version()

void Acl_cache::increase_version

(

)

When ever the role graph is modified we must flatten the privileges again.

This is done by increasing the role graph version counter. Next time a security context is created for an authorization id (aid) a request is also sent to the acl_cache to checkout a flattened acl_map for this particular aid. If a previous acl_map exists the version of this map is compared to the role graph version. If they don't match a new acl_map is calculated and inserted into the cache.

return_acl_map()

void Acl_cache::return_acl_map

(

Acl_map *

map

)

When the security context is done with the acl map it calls the cache to decrease the reference count on that object.

Parameters

map

acl map

size()

int32 Acl_cache::size

(

)

Return a snapshot of the number of items in the cache.

version()

uint64 Acl_cache::version

(

)

Return a lower boundary to the current version count.
