On every restart of the server, usage was being
calculated which is not useful instead wait for
sufficient time to start the crawling routine.
This PR also avoids lots of double allocations
through strings, optimizes usage of string builders
and also avoids crawling through symbolic links.
Fixes#8844
Continuing from PR 157ed65c35
Our posix.go implementation did not handle I/O errors
properly on the disks, this led to situations where
top-level callers such as ListObjects might return early
without even verifying all the available disks.
This commit tries to address this in Kubernetes, drbd/nbd based
persistent volumes which can disconnect under load and
result in the situations with disks return I/O errors.
This commit also simplifies listing operation, listing
never returns any error. We can avoid this since we pretty
much ignore most of the errors anyways. When objects are
accessed directly we return proper errors.
This is a consolidation effort, avoiding usage
of naked strings in codebase. Whenever possible
use constants which can be repurposed elsewhere.
This also fixes `goconst ./...` reported issues.
Do not attempt to fetch volume/drive information for
each i/o situation. In our case we do this in all calls
`posix.go` this in-turn created a terrible situation for
windows. This issue does not affect the i/o path on Unix
platforms since statvfs calls are in the range of micro
seconds on these platforms.
This verification is only needed during startup and we
let things fail at a later stage on windows.
