Since go1.8 os.RemoveAll and os.MkdirAll both support long
path names i.e UNC path on windows. The code we are carrying
was directly borrowed from `pkg/os` package and doesn't need
to be in our repo anymore. As a side affect this also
addresses our codecoverage issue.
Refer #4658
This patch also reverts previous changes which were
merged for migration to the newer disk format. We will
be bringing these changes in subsequent releases. But
we wish to add protection in this release such that
future release migrations are protected.
Revert "fs: Migration should handle bucketConfigs as regular objects. (#4482)"
This reverts commit 976870a391.
Revert "fs: Migrate object metadata to objects directory. (#4195)"
This reverts commit 76f4f20609.
This change adopts the upstream fix in this regard at
https://go-review.googlesource.com/#/c/41834/ for Minio's
purposes.
Go's current os.Stat() lacks support for lot of strange
windows files such as
- share symlinks on SMB2
- symlinks on docker nanoserver
- de-duplicated files on NTFS de-duplicated volume.
This PR attempts to incorporate the change mentioned here
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20100212-00/?p=14963/
The article suggests to use Windows I/O manager to
dereference the symbolic link.
Fixes#4122
Resource strings and paths are case insensitive on windows
deployments but if user happens to use upper case instead of
lower case for certain configuration params like bucket
policies and bucket notification config. We might not honor
them which leads to a wrong behavior on windows.
This is windows only behavior, for all other platforms case
is still kept sensitive.
