When a target is no longer returned from SD stop()
is called. However it may be recreated before the
next scrape interval happens. So we wait to set stalemarkers
until the scrape of the new target would have happened
and been ingested, which is 2 scrape intervals.
If we're shutting down the context will be cancelled,
so return immediately rather than holding things up for potentially
minutes waiting to safely set stalemarkers no newer than now.
If the server starts immediately back up again all is well.
If not, we're missing some stale markers.
In Prometheus 1.x one sample that is out of order
or that has a duplicate timestamp is discarded, and
the rest of the scrape ingestion continues on.
This will now also be true for 2.0.
If metrics_relabel_configs are used to drop metrics, an errSeriesDropped
is returned. This shouldn't be used to return an error at the end of a
append() call.
The automatic GZIP handling of net/http does not preserve
buffers across requests and thus generates a lot of garbage.
We handle GZIP ourselves to circumvent this.t
With this change the scraping caches series references and only
allocates label sets if it has to retrieve a new reference.
pkg/textparse is used to do the conditional parsing and reduce
allocations from 900B/sample to 0 in the general case.
This imposes a hard limit on the number of samples ingested from the
target. This is counted after metric relabelling, to allow dropping of
problemtic metrics.
This is intended as a very blunt tool to prevent overload due to
misbehaving targets that suddenly jump in sample count (e.g. adding
a label containing email addresses).
Add metric to track how often this happens.
Fixes#2137
So far, out-of-order samples during rule evaluation were not logged,
and neither scrape health samples. The latter are unlikely to cause
any errors. That's why I'm logging them always now. (It's alway highly
irregular should it happen.) For rules, I have used the same plumbing
as for samples, just with a different wording in the message to mark
them as a result of rule evaluation.
But only on DEBUG level.
Also, count and report the two cases of out-of-order timestamps on the
one hand and same timestamp but different value on the other hand
separately.
This commit removes the scrapeConfig entirely from Target.
All identity defining parameters are thus immutable now and the mutex
can be removed..
Target identity is now correctly defined by the labels and the full URL.
This in particular includes URL parameters that are not specified in the
label set.
Fingerprint is also removed from hash to remove an unnecessary tight coupling
to the common/model package.
With this commit the scrape pool deduplicates incoming
targets before scraping them. This way multiple target providers
can produce the same target but it will be scraped only once.
This commit updates a target set's scrape configuration
on reload. This will cause all running scrape loops to be
stopped and started again with new parameters.
This commit changes the scraper interface to accept a timestamp
so the reported timestamp by the caller and the timestamp
attached to samples does not differ.
We group providers by their scrape configuration. Each provider produces
target groups with an unique identifier.
On stopping a set of target providers we cancel the target providers,
stop scraping the targets and wait for the scrapers to finish.
On configuration reload all provider sets are stopped and new ones
are created. This will make targets disappear briefly on configuration
reload. Potentially scrapes are missed but due to the consistent
scrape intervals implemented recently, the impact is minor.
