Bug #16425
closed[keepstore] should not scan directories it doesn't write in
100%
Description
Keepstore walks all directories in its mount points, even those it never writes in. This can lead to a situation where keepstore does tons of unnecessary IO (e.g. when .snapshot directories are present, where GPFS makes daily snapshots).
Adding an option to exclude certain directories from what Keep considers would be a good solution.

When indexing, it looks like we're already skipping dirs that don't conform to keepstore's storage layout: source:services/keepstore/unix_volume.go#L355
var blockDirRe = regexp.MustCompile(`^[0-9a-f]+$`)
var blockFileRe = regexp.MustCompile(`^[0-9a-f]{32}$`)
...
if !blockDirRe.MatchString(names[0]) {
continue
}
...
blockdir, err := v.os.Open(blockdirpath)
However, the "empty trash" goroutine does walk the entire tree.
err := filepath.Walk(v.Root, func(path string, info os.FileInfo, err error) error {
if err != nil {
v.logger.WithError(err).Errorf("EmptyTrash: filepath.Walk(%q) failed", path)
return nil
}
todo <- dirent{path, info}
return nil
})
That walk func should check dirnames and return filepath.SkipDir when appropriate.
