RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Rich Megginson 2013-09-24 13:51:18 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1004876 +++

This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/47504

With very large databases, some queries go through a lot of work to build huge ID lists for filter components with many matching IDs.  For example, a search for (&(objectclass=inetorgperson)(uid=foo)) may build a huge idlist for objectclass=inetorgperson only to throw it away to intersect it with uid=foo.  In these cases, it would be useful to be able to tell the indexing code to use a different idlistscanlimit for certain indexes, or use no idlist at all.  In the above case, it would be useful to tell the indexing code to skip building an idlist for objectclass=inetorgperson, but still use the default idlistscanlimit for other objectclass searches (e.g. objectclass=groupOfNames).

This would also help in https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/47474 - if there are several million IDs for each of the objectclass= filter components, being able to skip id list generation for the objectclass values would make that query very fast.

We can't reuse nsslapd-idlistscanlimit, so perhaps a new attribute

dn: cn=attrname,cn=index,...
objectclass: nsIndex
nsIndexIDSize: NNNN[:type][:eqvalue:eqvalue:...]

Where NNNN is the max ID list size (or 0 for no list at all)
type is the type of index (sub, pres, eq)
eqvalue are for equality indexes - these are the values to which the max ID list size applies

So in the case of ticket/47474, something like

dn: cn=objectclass,...
objectclass: nsIndex
nsIndexType: eq
nsIndexIDSize: 0:eq:organizationalPerson:inetOrgPerson:organization:organizationalUnit:groupOf
Names:groupOfUniqueNames:group

Would effectively disable id list generation for the objectclass values listed.

Note that this will apply to _all_ queries for any of the objectclass values, not just their use in conjunction with this particular search filter.

Tests for the new feature Fine Grained ID List Size
new file filterscanlimit.sh tests have many positive and
negative tests to test features and error handling
tests pass with valgrind reporting no errors

Comment 3 Sankar Ramalingam 2013-09-25 07:00:31 UTC 
As per comment #2, the test cases are already automated in filter test suite. Hence, marking the qe_test_coverage+ flag.
Comment 5 Sankar Ramalingam 2013-12-20 13:33:12 UTC 
Automated test cases in TET for filter test suites are PASSing. Hence, marking the bug as Verified.
