Wiser coders than myself have come to the conclusion that a `switch`
statement is almost always superior to a statement that includes any
`else if`.
The exceptions that I have found in our codebase are just these two:
* The `if else` is followed by an additional statement before the next
condition (separated by a `;`).
* The whole thing is within a `for` loop and `break` statements are
used. In this case, using `switch` would require tagging the `for`
loop, which probably tips the balance.
Why are `switch` statements more readable?
For one, fewer curly braces. But more importantly, the conditions all
have the same alignment, so the whole thing follows the natural flow
of going down a list of conditions. With `else if`, in contrast, all
conditions but the first are "hidden" behind `} else if `, harder to
spot and (for no good reason) presented differently from the first
condition.
I'm sure the aforemention wise coders can list even more reasons.
In any case, I like it so much that I have found myself recommending
it in code reviews. I would like to make it a habit in our code base,
without making it a hard requirement that we would test on the CI. But
for that, there has to be a role model, so this commit eliminates all
`if else` occurrences, unless it is autogenerated code or fits one of
the exceptions above.

We haven't updated golint-ci in our CI yet, but this commit prepares
for that.
There are a lot of new warnings, and it is mostly because the "revive"
linter got updated. I agree with most of the new warnings, mostly
around not naming unused function parameters (although it is justified
in some cases for documentation purposes – while things like mocks are
a good example where not naming the parameter is clearer).
I'm pretty upset about the "empty block" warning to include `for`
loops. It's such a common pattern to do something in the head of the
`for` loop and then have an empty block. There is still an open issue
about this: https://github.com/mgechev/revive/issues/810 I have
disabled "revive" altogether in files where empty blocks are used
excessively, and I have made the effort to add individual
`// nolint:revive` where empty blocks are used just once or twice.
It's borderline noisy, though, but let's go with it for now.
I should mention that none of the "empty block" warnings for `for`
loop bodies were legitimate.

It took a `Labels` where the memory could be re-used, but in practice
this hardly ever benefitted. Especially after converting `relabel.Process`
to `relabel.ProcessBuilder`.
Comparing the parameter to `nil` was a bug; `EmptyLabels` is not `nil`
so the slice was reallocated multiple times by `append`.
Lastly `Builder.Labels()` now estimates that the final size will depend
on labels added and deleted.

This makes the buffer the correct size for the common case that labels

This change removes restrictions to allow adding exemplars
to all time series. It also contains some improvements in test values
so that it is easier to track what is tested.
The advantage of doing this is having a little less error-prone tests:
"yy" is not really descriptive but "counter-test" can give people
a better idea about what is tested so it is harder to make mistakes.

These benchmarks were testing things related to what Prometheus does, but not testing actual Prometheus code.
Moved the label-copying benchmark into the labels package.
This commit adds an alternate implementation for `labels.Labels`, behind
a build tag `stringlabels`.
Instead of storing label names and values as individual strings, they
are all concatenated into one string in this format:
[len][name0][len][value0][len][name1][len][value1]...
The lengths are varint encoded so usually a single byte.
The previous `[]string` had 24 bytes of overhead for the slice and 16
for each label name and value; this one has 16 bytes overhead plus 1
for each name and value.
In `ScratchBuilder.Overwrite` and `Labels.Hash` we use an unsafe
conversion from string to byte slice. `Overwrite` is explicitly unsafe,
but for `Hash` this is a pure performance hack.

This commit adds a new 'keep_firing_for' field to Prometheus alerting
rules. The 'resolve_delay' field specifies the minimum amount of time
that an alert should remain firing, even if the expression does not
return any results.
This feature was discussed at a previous dev summit, and it was
determined that a feature like this would be useful in order to allow
the expression time to stabilize and prevent confusing resolved messages
from being propagated through Alertmanager.
This approach is simpler than having two PromQL queries, as was
sometimes discussed, and it should be easy to implement.
This commit does not include tests for the 'resolve_delay' field. This
is intentional, as the purpose of this commit is to gather comments on
the proposed design of the 'resolve_delay' field before implementing
tests. Once the design of the 'resolve_delay' field has been finalized,
a follow-up commit will be submitted with tests."

Signed-off-by: beorn7 <beorn@grafana.com>
With this commit, the parser stops to see a gauge histogram (whether
native or conventional) as an unexpected metric type. It ingests it
normally, it even sets the `GaugeHistogram` type in the metadata (as
it has already done for a conventional gauge histogram scraped using
OpenMetrics), but it otherwise treats it as a normal counter-like
histogram.
Once #11783 is merged, though, it should be very easy to utilize the
type information.
Signed-off-by: beorn7 <beorn@grafana.com>
So far, the parser hasn't validated that the type is valid in the
`Next()` call. Later, in the `Series()` call, however, it assumes that
we will only see valid types and therefore panics with `encountered
unexpected metric type, this is a bug`.
This commit fixes said bug by adding validation to the `Next()` call.

And use the new method to call to compact Histograms during
parsing. This happens for both `Histogram` and `FloatHistogram`. In
this way, if targets decide to optimize the exposition size by merging
spans with empty buckets in between, we still get a normalized
results. It will also normalize away any valid but weird
representations like empty spans, spans with offset zero, and empty
buckets at the start or end of a span.
The implementation seemed easy at first as it just turns the
`compactBuckets` helper into a generic function (which now got its own
file). However, the integer Histograms have delta buckets instead of
absolute buckets, which had to be treated specially in the generic
`compactBuckets` function. To make sure it works, I have added plenty
of explicit tests for `Histogram` in addition to the `FloatHistogram`
tests.
I have also updated the doc comment for the `Compact` method.
Based on the insights now expressed in the doc comment, compacting
with a maxEmptyBuckets > 0 is rarely useful. Therefore, this commit
also sets the value to 0 in the two cases we were using 3 so far. We
might still want to reconsider, so I don't want to remove the
maxEmptyBuckets parameter right now.

A lot of this code was hacked together, literally during a
hackathon. This commit intends not to change the code substantially,
but just make the code obey the usual style practices.
A (possibly incomplete) list of areas:
* Generally address linter warnings.
* The `pgk` directory is deprecated as per dev-summit. No new packages should
be added to it. I moved the new `pkg/histogram` package to `model`
anticipating what's proposed in #9478.
* Make the naming of the Sparse Histogram more consistent. Including
abbreviations, there were just too many names for it: SparseHistogram,
Histogram, Histo, hist, his, shs, h. The idea is to call it "Histogram" in
general. Only add "Sparse" if it is needed to avoid confusion with
conventional Histograms (which is rare because the TSDB really has no notion
of conventional Histograms). Use abbreviations only in local scope, and then
really abbreviate (not just removing three out of seven letters like in
"Histo"). This is in the spirit of
https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#variable-names
* Several other minor name changes.
* A lot of formatting of doc comments. For one, following
https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#comment-sentences
, but also layout question, anticipating how things will look like
when rendered by `godoc` (even where `godoc` doesn't render them
right now because they are for unexported types or not a doc comment
at all but just a normal code comment - consistency is queen!).
* Re-enabled `TestQueryLog` and `TestEndopints` (they pass now,
leaving them disabled was presumably an oversight).
* Bucket iterator for histogram.Histogram is now created with a
method.
* HistogramChunk.iterator now allows iterator recycling. (I think
@dieterbe only commented it out because he was confused by the
question in the comment.)
* HistogramAppender.Append panics now because we decided to treat
staleness marker differently.

If the metrics exported by a process already contain any of a target's
base labels (such as "job" or "instance", but also any manually assigned
target-group label), don't overwrite that label, but instead add a new
label consisting of the original label name prepended with "exporter_".
This is to accomodate intermediate exporter jobs, which might indicate
e.g. the jobs and instances for which they are exporting data.
This commit updates the documentation, Makefiles, formatting, and

1. ``make advice``,
2. ``make format``, and
3. ``go fix`` on various targets.
This commit extracts the model.Values truncation behavior into the actual
tiered storage, which uses it and behaves in a peculiar way—notably the
retention of previous elements if the chunk were to ever go empty. This is
done to enable interpolation between sparse sample values in the evaluation
cycle. Nothing necessarily new here—just an extraction.
Now, the model.Values TruncateBefore functionality would do what a user
would expect without any surprises, which is required for the
DeletionProcessor, which may decide to split a large chunk in two if it
determines that the chunk contains the cut-off time.
This commit reduces the general compile time dependencies to omit

This commit introduces to Prometheus a batch database sample curator,
which corroborates the high watermarks for sample series against the
curation watermark table to see whether a curator of a given type
needs to be run.
The curator is an abstract executor, which runs various curation
strategies across the database. It remarks the progress for each
type of curation processor that runs for a given sample series.
A curation procesor is responsible for effectuating the underlying
batch changes that are request. In this commit, we introduce the
CompactionProcessor, which takes several bits of runtime metadata and
combine sparse sample entries in the database together to form larger
groups. For instance, for a given series it would be possible to
have the curator effectuate the following grouping:

- Samples Older than One Week: Grouped into Bunches of 1000
- Samples Older than One Day: Grouped into Bunches of 100
- Samples Older than One Hour: Grouped into Bunches of 10
The benefits hereof of such a compaction are 1. a smaller search
space in the database keyspace, 2. better employment of compression
for repetious values, and 3. reduced seek times.
Primary changes:
* Strictly typed unmarshalling of metric values
* Schema types are contained by the processor (no "type entity002")
Minor changes:
* Added ProcessorFunc type for expressing processors as simple
functions.
* Added non-destructive `Merge` method to `model.LabelSet`
The Protocol Buffer compiler supports generating a machine-readable
descriptor file encoded as a provided Protocol Buffer message type,
which can be used to decode messages that have been encoded with it
after-the-fact. The generated descriptor also bundles in dependent
message types.
We can use this to perform forensics on old Prometheus clients, if
necessary.
Go's time.Time represents time as UTC in its fundamental data type.
That said, when using ``time.Unix(...)``, it sets the zone for the
time representation to the local. Unfortunately with diagnosis and
our tests, it is a PITA to jump between various zones, even though
the serialized version remains the same.
To keep things easy, all places where times are generated or read
are converted into UTC. These conversions are cheap, for
``Time.In`` merely changes a pointer reference in the struct,
nothing more. This enables me to diagnose test failures with fixture
data very easily.
The curator work can be done easier if dto.SampleKey is no longer
directly accessed but rather has a higher level type around it that
captures a certain modicum of business logic. This doesn't look
terribly interesting today, but it will get more so.
The curator doesn't do anything yet; rather, this is the type
definition including the anciliary testing scaffold.
Improve Makefile and Git developer experience.
The top-level Makefile was a bit overloaded in terms of generation of
assets and their management. This has been offloaded into separate
Makefiles.
The Git developer experience sucked due to lack of .gitignore
policies.
Also: Fix faulty skiplist naming from old merge.
The old system relies off of super-careful notion that the serialized
form of a Protocol Buffer should be used for fingerprint formulation.
Of course this is both wrong and inefficient. This commit breaks
ground for swapping to a pure attribute-oriented digest.
Kill LevelDB watermarks due to redundancy.
General interface documentation has begun.
Creating custom types for the model to prevent errors down the
road.
Renaming of components for easier comprehension.
Exposition of interface in LevelDB.
Slew of simple refactorings.
