PromQL only requires a much narrower interface than local.Storage in
order to run queries. Narrower interfaces are easier to replace and
test, too.
We could also change the web interface to use local.Querier, except that
we'll probably use appending functions from there in the future.
Currently the printer doesn't print the annotations of an `*AlertStmt`
declaration. I've added a test case as well, which fails for the current
master.
Since rule evaluations work via String(), this fixes evaluation of
rules containing GROUP_x modifiers without labels. This change is the
minimal bugfix (so that we can release a fixed version without
risk). It does not intend to implement any additional features (like
allowing `GROUP_LEFT()` or `ON()` or even `ON` - see discussion in
https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/1597 ).
If the label doesn't exist on the one side, it's not copied.
All labels on the many inside are included, this is a breaking change
but likely low impact.
The labels listed in the group_ modifier will be copied from the one
side to the many side. It will be valid to specify no labels.
This is intended to replace the existing ON/GROUP_* support.,
Prometheus is Apache 2 licensed, and most source files have the
appropriate copyright license header, but some were missing it without
apparent reason. Correct that by adding it.
The `unless` set operator can be used to return all vector elements from
the LHS which do not match the elements on the RHS. A use case is to
return all metrics for nodes which do not have a specific role:
node_load1 unless on(instance) chef_role{role="app"}
The chunk encoding was hardcoded there because it mostly doesn't
matter what encoding is chosen in that test. Since type 1 is
battle-hardened enough, I'm switching to type 2 here so that we can
catch unexpected problems as a byproduct. My expectation is that the
chunk encoding doesn't matter anyway, as said, but then "unexpected
problems" contains the word "unexpected".
WIP: This needs more tests.
It now gets a from and through value, which it may opportunistically
use to optimize the retrieval. With possible future range indices,
this could be used in a very efficient way. This change merely applies
some easy checks, which should nevertheless solve the use case of
heavy rule evaluations on servers with a lot of series churn.
Idea is the following:
- Only archive series that are at least as old as the headChunkTimeout
(which was already extremely unlikely to happen).
- Then maintain a high watermark for the last archival, i.e. no
archived series has a sample more recent than that watermark.
- Any query that doesn't reach to a time before that watermark doesn't
have to touch the archive index at all. (A production server at
Soundcloud with the aforementioned series churn and heavy rule
evaluations spends 50% of its CPU time in archive index
lookups. Since rule evaluations usually only touch very recent
values, most of those lookup should disappear with this change.)
- Federation with a very broad label matcher will profit from this,
too.
As a byproduct, the un-needed MetricForFingerprint method was removed
from the Storage interface.
