If users see the crash recovery error, the chances are
they aren't shutting down Prometheus correctly. Telling
them how to do so will help them debug and fix the problem.
Perhaps it would be even better to still warn in case the sample value has
changed but the timestamps are equal, but we don't have efficient access
to the last value.
For the label matching index-based preselection phase, don't do an OR
between equality and non-equality matchers. Execute only one of the two
(with equality matchers preferred when present).

If all samples in consecutive chunks have the same timestamp, the way
we used to load chunks will fail. With this change, the persist
watermark is used to load the right amount of chunkDescs from disk.
This bug is a possible reason for the rare storage corruption we have
observed.
Fixes https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/481
While doing so, clean up and fix a few other things:
- Fix `go vet` warnings (@fabxc to blame ;).
- Fix a racey problem with unarchiving: Whenever we unarchive a
series, we essentially want to do something with it. However, until
we have done something with it, it appears like a series that is
ready to be archived or even purged. So e.g. it would be ignored
during checkpointing. With this fix, we always load the chunkDescs
upon unarchiving. This is wasteful if we only want to add a new
sample to an archived time series, but the (presumably more common)
case where we access an archived time series in a query doesn't
become more expensive.
- The change above streamlined the getOrCreateSeries ond
newMemorySeries flow. Also, the modTime is now always set correctly.
- Fix the leveldb-backed implementation of KeyValueStore.Delete. It
had the wrong behavior of still returning true, nil if a
non-existing key has been passed in.
See https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/887, which will at
least be partially fixed by this.
From the spec https://golang.org/ref/spec#Conversions:
"In all non-constant conversions involving floating-point or complex
values, if the result type cannot represent the value the conversion
succeeds but the result value is implementation-dependent."
This ended up setting the converted values to 0 on Debian's Go 1.4.2
compiler, at least on 32-bit Debians.
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.
Change #704 introduced a regression that started reading the queue only
after potential crash recovery. When more than the queue capacity was
indexed, Prometheus deadlocked.
This change is conceptually very simple, although the diff is large. It
switches logging from "github.com/golang/glog" to
"github.com/prometheus/log", while not actually changing any log
messages. V(1)-style logging has been changed to be log.Debug*().
Also, clean up some things in the code (especially introduction of the
chunkLenWithHeader constant to avoid the same expression all over the place).

Note that everything is obviously loaded from the page cache (as the
benchmark runs thousands of times with very small series files). In a
real-world scenario, I expect a larger impact, as the disk operations
will more often actually hit the disk. To load ~50 sequential chunks,
this reduces the iops from 100 seeks and 100 reads to 1 seek and 1
read.
