What does this PR do?
Backport of upstream PR: giampaolo/psutil#2000
Motivation
On some Linux setups (eg: default Ubuntu 20.04 AWS instances), psutils
would return /dev/root instead of the actual block device (eg: /dev/xvda1).
When using the
tag_by_label
option, the disk check tries to match theoutput of psutil with the output of
lsblk
orblkid
to find disk labels.However, these return the actual path instead of /dev/root, resulting in
missing tags.
Describe how to test your changes
Run
import psutil; psutil.disk_partitions()
on both the py2 and py3 interpreters of an Agent running on an Ubuntu 20.04 AWS instance. It should list/dev/xvda1
with this patch and/dev/root
without.
