Add disk I/O usage (on disk directly, not process)

[GuillaumeGomez]

On windows it can be done as follow (from @retep998):

You can query disk performance info for the entire disk and not process specific by using FSCTL_FILESYSTEM_GET_STATISTICS
or FSCTL_FILESYSTEM_GET_STATISTICS_EX if you're on windows 10

On linux, it can be retrieved from /proc/diskstats.

Is there still interest in this? I'm currently doing some work on implementing it for Linux/macOS/Windows https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom anyways, so I can port over some of that code if you want.

My only question is whether we also need implementations/dummy implementations for the other supported OSes.

[GuillaumeGomez]

I'm definitely interested. From what you wrote, you don't plan to add FreeBSD but it's fine, I can add the missing parts.

Any plans to add this in the short term?

[GuillaumeGomez]

Unless someone steps up and does it, no. I'm too busy to be able to look into implementing this feature.

[samin-cf]

Sounds good, I will try to put a PR in a few days.

[GuillaumeGomez]

Awesome, thanks!

[GuillaumeGomez]

It's now done. Thanks everyone!
