When doing comparison operations on vectors, filtering
sometimes gets in the way and you have to go to a fair bit of
effort to workaround it in order to always return a result.
The 'bool' modifier instead of filtering returns 0/1 depending
on the result of the compairson.
This is also a prerequisite to removing plain scalar/scalar comparisons,
as it maintains the current behaviour under a new syntax.
The current behaviour produces values that are not
from rules or scrapes. So if for example I have
a boolean 0/1 it can be returned as 0.2344589. This
prevents a number of advanced use cases, introduces
race conditions and can produce misleading graphs.
This commit removes the possibility to have multi-statement queries
which had no full support anyway. This makes the caller responsible
for multi-statement semantics.
Multiple tests are no longer timing-dependent.
These changes allow to do range queries over scalar expressions.
Errors on bad types for range queries are now raised on query creation
rather than evaluation.
A high number of concurrent queries can slow each other down
so that none of them is reasonbly responsive. This commit limits
the number of queries being concurrently executed.
This copies the evaluation logic from the current rules/ package.
The new engine handles the execution process from query string to final result.
It provides query timeout and cancellation and general flexibility for
future changes.
functions.go: Add evaluation implementation. Slight changes to in/out data but
not to the processing logic.
quantile.go: No changes.
analyzer.go: No changes.
engine.go: Actually new part. Mainly consists of evaluation methods
which were not changed.
setup_test.go: Copy of rules/helpers_test.go to setup test storage.
promql_test.go: Copy of rules/rules_test.go.
