Tom Wilkie efbd9559f4 Deal with corruptions in the WAL:
- If we're replaying the WAL to get series records, skip that segment when we hit corruptions.
- If we're tailing the WAL for samples, fail the watcher.
- When the watcher fails, restart from the latest checkpoint - and only send new samples by updating startTime.
- Tidy up log lines and error handling, don't return so many errors on quiting.
- Expect EOF when processing checkpoints.

Tom Wilkie b93bafeee1 Various fixes to locking & shutdown for WAL-based remote write.
- Remove datarace in the exported highest scrape timestamp.
- Backoff on enqueue should be per-sample - reset the result for each sample.
- Remove diffKeys, unused ctx and cancelfunc in WALWatcher, 'name' from writeTo interface, and pass it to constructor.
- Reorder functions in WALWatcher depth-first according to call graph.
- Fix vendor/modules.txt.
- Split out the various timer periods into consts at the top of the file.
- Move w.currentSegmentMetric.Set close to where we set the currentSegment.
- Combine r.Next() and isClosed(w.quit) into a single loop.
- Unnest some ifs in WALWatcher.watch, propagate erros in decodeRecord, add some new lines to make it easier to read.
- Reorganise checkpoint handling to reduce nesting and make it easier to follow.

Callum Styan 6f69e31398 Tail the TSDB WAL for remote_write
This change switches the remote_write API to use the TSDB WAL.  This should reduce memory usage and prevent sample loss when the remote end point is down.

We use the new LiveReader from TSDB to tail WAL segments.  Logic for finding the tracking segment is included in this PR.  The WAL is tailed once for each remote_write endpoint specified. Reading from the segment is based on a ticker rather than relying on fsnotify write events, which were found to be complicated and unreliable in early prototypes.

Enqueuing a sample for sending via remote_write can now block, to provide back pressure.  Queues are still required to acheive parallelism and batching.  We have updated the queue config based on new defaults for queue capacity and pending samples values - much smaller values are now possible.  The remote_write resharding code has been updated to prevent deadlocks, and extra tests have been added for these cases.

As part of this change, we attempt to guarantee that samples are not lost; however this initial version doesn't guarantee this across Prometheus restarts or non-retryable errors from the remote end (eg 400s).

This changes also includes the following optimisations:
- only marshal the proto request once, not once per retry
- maintain a single copy of the labels for given series to reduce GC pressure

Other minor tweaks:
- only reshard if we've also successfully sent recently
- add pending samples, latest sent timestamp, WAL events processed metrics

Daniele Sluijters f25a6baedb remote: Set User-Agent header in requests (#4891)
Currently Prometheus requests show up with a UA of Go-http-client/1.1
which isn't super helpful. Though the X-Prometheus-Remote-* headers
exist they need to be explicitly configured when logging the request in
order to be able to deduce this is a request originating from
Prometheus. By setting the header we remove this ambiguity and make
default server logs just a bit more useful.

This also updates a few other places to consistently capitalize the 'P'
in the user agent, as well as ensure we set a UA to begin with.

```

When remove read is enabled, federation will call `q.Select(nil, mset...)`
which will break remote reads because it currently doesn't handle empty
SelectParams.

Fix remote read labelset corruption (#3456)
The labelsets returned from remote read are mutated in higher levels
(like seriesFilter.Labels()) and since the concreteSeriesSet didn't
return a copy, the external mutation affected the labelset in the
concreteSeries itself. This resulted in bizarre bugs where local and
remote series would show with identical label sets in the UI, but not be
deduplicated, since internally, a series might come to look like:

{__name__="node_load5", instance="192.168.1.202:12090", job="node_exporter", node="odroid", node="odroid"}

(note the repetition of the last label)

Thibault Chataigner bf4a279a91 Remote storage reads based on oldest timestamp in primary storage (#3129)
Currently all read queries are simply pushed to remote read clients.
This is fine, except for remote storage for wich it unefficient and
make query slower even if remote read is unnecessary.
So we need instead to compare the oldest timestamp in primary/local
storage with the query range lower boundary. If the oldest timestamp
is older than the mint parameter, then there is no need for remote read.
This is an optionnal behavior per remote read client.

Tom Wilkie d83879210c Switch back to protos over HTTP, instead of GRPC.
My aim is to support the new grpc generic write path in Frankenstein.  On the surface this seems easy - however I've hit a number of problems that make me think it might be better to not use grpc just yet.

The explanation of the problems requires a little background.  At weave, traffic to frankenstein need to go through a couple of services first, for SSL and to be authenticated.  So traffic goes:

    internet -> frontend -> authfe -> frankenstein

- The frontend is Nginx, and adds/removes SSL.  Its done this way for legacy reasons, so the certs can be managed in one place, although eventually we imagine we'll merge it with authfe.  All traffic from frontend is sent to authfe.
- Authfe checks the auth tokens / cookie etc and then picks the service to forward the RPC to.
- Frankenstein accepts the reads and does the right thing with them.

First problem I hit was Nginx won't proxy http2 requests - it can accept them, but all calls downstream are http1 (see https://trac.nginx.org/nginx/ticket/923).  This wasn't such a big deal, so it now looks like:

    internet --(grpc/http2)--> frontend --(grpc/http1)--> authfe --(grpc/http1)--> frankenstein

Next problem was golang grpc server won't accept http1 requests (see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/grpc-io/JnjCYGPMUms).  It is possible to link a grpc server in with a normal go http mux, as long as the mux server is serving over SSL, as the golang http client & server won't do http2 over anything other than an SSL connection.  This would require making all our service to service comms SSL.  So I had a go a writing a grpc http1 server, and got pretty far.  But is was a bit of a mess.

So finally I thought I'd make a separate grpc frontend for this, running in parallel with the frontend/authfe combo on a different port - and first up I'd need a grpc reverse proxy.  Ideally we'd have some nice, generic reverse proxy that only knew about a map from service names -> downstream service, and didn't need to decode & re-encode every request as it went through.  It seems like this can't be done with golang's grpc library - see https://github.com/mwitkow/grpc-proxy/issues/1.

And then I was surprised to find you can't do grpc from browsers! See http://www.grpc.io/faq/ - not important to us, but I'm starting to question why we decided to use grpc in the first place?

It would seem we could have most of the benefits of grpc with protos over HTTP, and this wouldn't preclude moving to grpc when its a bit more mature?  In fact, the grcp FAQ even admits as much:

> Why is gRPC better than any binary blob over HTTP/2?
> This is largely what gRPC is on the wire.

Dan Milstein 007907b410 Fix one of the tests for a remote storage QueueManager
Specifically, the TestSpawnNotMoreThanMaxConcurrentSendsGoroutines was failing on a fresh checkout of master.

The test had a race condition -- it would only pass if one of the
spawned goroutines happened to very quickly pull a set of samples off an
internal queue.

This patch rewrites the test so that it deterministically waits until
all samples have been pulled off that queue.  In case of errors, it also
now reports on the difference between what it expected and what it found.

I verified that, if the code under test is deliberately broken, the test
successfully reports on that.

This gives up on the idea to communicate throuh the Append() call (by

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.

2016-01-11 13:57:14 +01:00
Corentin Chary a2e4439086 Add support for remote storage on Graphite
Allows to use graphite over tcp or udp. Metrics labels
and values are used to construct a valid Graphite path
in a way that will allow us to eventually read them back
and reconstruct the metrics.

For example, this metric:

model.Metric{
	model.MetricNameLabel: "test:metric",
	"testlabel":           "test:value",
	"testlabel2":           "test:value",
)

Will become:

test:metric.testlabel=test:value.testlabel2=test:value

escape.go takes care of escaping values to match Graphite
character set, it basically uses percent-encoding as a fallback
wich will work pretty will in the graphite/grafana world.

The remote storage module also has an optional 'prefix' parameter
to prefix all metrics with a path (for example, 'prometheus.').

Graphite URLs are simply in the form tcp://host:port or
udp://host:port.

beorn7 be11cb2b07 Remove the sample ingestion channel.
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.

Bjoern Rabenstein 1909686789 Make metrics exported by the Prometheus server itself more consistent.
- Always spell out the time unit (e.g. milliseconds instead of ms).

- Remove "_total" from the names of metrics that are not counters.

- Make use of the "Namespace" and "Subsystem" fields in the options.

- Removed the "capacity" facet from all metrics about channels/queues.
  These are all fixed via command line flags and will never change
  during the runtime of a process. Also, they should not be part of
  the same metric family. I have added separate metrics for the
  capacity of queues as convenience. (They will never change and are
  only set once.)

- I left "metric_disk_latency_microseconds" unchanged, although that
  metric measures the latency of the storage device, even if it is not
  a spinning disk. "SSD" is read by many as "solid state disk", so
  it's not too far off. (It should be "solid state drive", of course,
  but "metric_drive_latency_microseconds" is probably confusing.)

- Brian suggested to not mix "failure" and "success" outcome in the
  same metric family (distinguished by labels). For now, I left it as
  it is. We are touching some bigger issue here, especially as other
  parts in the Prometheus ecosystem are following the same
  principle. We still need to come to terms here and then change
  things consistently everywhere.

Bjoern Rabenstein 6bc083f38b Major code cleanup in storage.
- Mostly docstring fixed/additions.
  (Please review these carefully, since most of them were missing, I
  had to guess them from an outsider's perspective. (Which on the
  other hand proves how desperately required many of these docstrings
  are.))

- Removed all uses of new(...) to meet our own style guide (draft).

- Fixed all other 'go vet' and 'golint' issues (except those that are
  not fixable (i.e. caused by bugs in or by design of 'go vet' and
  'golint')).

- Some trivial refactorings, like reorder functions, minor renames, ...

- Some slightly less trivial refactoring, mostly to reduce code
  duplication by embedding types instead of writing many explicit
  forwarders.

- Cleaned up the interface structure a bit. (Most significant probably
  the removal of the View-like methods from MetricPersistenc. Now they
  are only in View and not duplicated anymore.)

- Removed dead code. (Probably not all of it, but it's a first
  step...)

- Fixed a leftover in storage/metric/end_to_end_test.go (that made
  some parts of the code never execute (incidentally, those parts
  were broken (and I fixed them, too))).

Julius Volz 61d26e8445 Add optional sample replication to OpenTSDB.
Prometheus needs long-term storage. Since we don't have enough resources
to build our own timeseries storage from scratch ontop of Riak,
Cassandra or a similar distributed datastore at the moment, we're
planning on using OpenTSDB as long-term storage for Prometheus. It's
data model is roughly compatible with that of Prometheus, with some
caveats.

As a first step, this adds write-only replication from Prometheus to
OpenTSDB, with the following things worth noting:

1)
I tried to keep the integration lightweight, meaning that anything
related to OpenTSDB is isolated to its own package and only main knows
about it (essentially it tees all samples to both the existing storage
and TSDB). It's not touching the existing TieredStorage at all to avoid
more complexity in that area. This might change in the future,
especially if we decide to implement a read path for OpenTSDB through
Prometheus as well.

2)
Backpressure while sending to OpenTSDB is handled by simply dropping
samples on the floor when the in-memory queue of samples destined for
OpenTSDB runs full.  Prometheus also only attempts to send samples once,
rather than implementing a complex retry algorithm. Thus, replication to
OpenTSDB is best-effort for now.  If needed, this may be extended in the
future.

3)
Samples are sent in batches of limited size to OpenTSDB. The optimal
batch size, timeout parameters, etc. may need to be adjusted in the
future.

4)
OpenTSDB has different rules for legal characters in tag (label) values.
While Prometheus allows any characters in label values, OpenTSDB limits
them to a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9, -, _, . and /. Currently any illegal
characters in Prometheus label values are simply replaced by an
underscore. Especially when integrating OpenTSDB with the read path in
Prometheus, we'll need to reconsider this: either we'll need to
introduce the same limitations for Prometheus labels or escape/encode
illegal characters in OpenTSDB in such a way that they are fully
decodable again when reading through Prometheus, so that corresponding
timeseries in both systems match in their labelsets.
