We were not properly maintaining the scrape cache when the same metric
was exposed with a different string representation.
This overall reduces the scraping cache's complexity, which fixes the
issue and saves about 10% of memory in a scraping-only Prometheus
instance.
This gives up on the idea to communicate throuh the Append() call (by
either not returning as it is now or returning an error as
suggested/explored elsewhere). Here I have added a Throttled() call,
which has the advantage that it can be called before a whole _batch_
of Append()'s. Scrapes will happen completely or not at all. Same for
rule group evaluations. That's a highly desired behavior (as discussed
elsewhere). The code is even simpler now as the whole ingestion buffer
could be removed.
Logging of throttled mode has been streamlined and will create at most
one message per minute.
The prefixed target provider changed a pointerized target group that was
reused in the wrapped target provider, causing an ever-increasing chain
of source prefixes in target groups from the Consul target provider.
We now make this bug generally impossible by switching the target group
channel from pointer to value type and thus ensuring that target groups
are copied before being passed on to other parts of the system.
I tried to not let the depointerization leak too far outside of the
channel handling (both upstream and downstream) because I tried that
initially and caused some nasty bugs, which I want to minimize.
Fixes https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/1083
Bump timeouts of tests where we don't want I/O timeouts.
Adjust the full channel test to be much more reliable,
by reducing the ingestion timeout from 1ms to 0.
This commit adds the honor_labels and params arguments to the scrape
config. This allows to specify query parameters used by the scrapers
and handling scraped labels with precedence.
This commit shifts responsibility for maintaining targets from providers and
pools to the target manager. Target groups have a source name that identifies
them for updates.
The one central sample ingestion channel has caused a variety of
trouble. This commit removes it. Targets and rule evaluation call an
Append method directly now. To incorporate multiple storage backends
(like OpenTSDB), storage.Tee forks the Append into two different
appenders.
Note that the tsdb queue manager had its own queue anyway. It was a
queue after a queue... Much queue, so overhead...
Targets have their own little buffer (implemented as a channel) to
avoid stalling during an http scrape. But a new scrape will only be
started once the old one is fully ingested.
The contraption of three pipelined ingesters was removed. A Target is
an ingester itself now. Despite more logic in Target, things should be
less confusing now.
Also, remove lint and vet warnings in ast.go.
- Move CONTRIBUTORS.md to the more common AUTHORS.
- Added the required NOTICE file.
- Changed "Prometheus Team" to "The Prometheus Authors".
- Reverted the erroneous changes to the Apache License.
Having metrics with variable timestamps inconsistently
spaced when things fail will make it harder to write correct rules.
Update status page, requires some refactoring to insert a function.
