Backport #19516
Within doArchive there is a service goroutine that performs the
archiving function. This goroutine reports its error using a
chan error
calleddone
. Prior to this PR this channel had 0 capacitymeaning that the goroutine would block until the
done
channel wascleared - however there are a couple of ways in which this channel might
not be read.
The simplest solution is to add a single space of capacity to the
goroutine which will mean that the goroutine will always complete and
even if the
done
channel is not read it will be simply garbagecollected away.
(The PR also contains two other places when setting up the indexers
which do not leak but where the blocking of the sending goroutine is
also unnecessary and so we should just add a small amount of capacity
and let the sending goroutine complete as soon as it can.)
