Subject: [pbs-devel] [RFC proxmox-backup 4/4] gc: don't limit index listing to same filesystem
Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2020 16:22:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201130152220.658777-5-f.gruenbichler@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201130152220.658777-1-f.gruenbichler@proxmox.com>

WalkDir does not follow symlinks by default anyway, and this behaviour
is not documented anywhere. e.g., if a sysadmin mounts 'extra storage'
for some backup group or type (not knowing that only metadata is stored
in those directories), GC will ignore all the indices contained within
and happily garbage collect their chunks..

Signed-off-by: Fabian Grünbichler <f.gruenbichler@proxmox.com>

Notes:
    RFC since I am not 100% sure, but the current behaviour seems like a timebomb
    waiting to bite someone's behind..
