Subject: [PATCH 4/4] change_mnt_propagation(): calculate propagation source only if we'll need it
Date: Sat, 16 Aug 2025 00:36:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250815233645.GD2117906@ZenIV> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250815233316.GS222315@ZenIV>

We only need it when mount in question was sending events downstream (then
recepients need to switch to new master) or the mount is being turned into
slave (then we need a new master for it).

That wouldn't be a big deal, except that it causes quite a bit of work
when umount_tree() is taking a large peer group out.  Adding a trivial
"don't bother calling propagation_source() unless we are going to use
its results" logics improves the things quite a bit.

We are still doing unnecessary work on bulk removals from propagation graph,
but the full solution for that will have to wait for the next merge window.

Fixes: 955336e204ab "do_make_slave(): choose new master sanely"
