The github.com/beevik/ntp package was recently updated with some
API changes that broke node_exporter. This commit fetches the
latest version of the ntp package and brings node_exporter in
line with the latest API.
* Move NodeCollector into package collector
* Refactor collector enabling
* Update README with new collector enabled flags
* Fix out-of-date inline flag reference syntax
* Use new flags in end-to-end tests
* Add flag to disable all default collectors
* Track if a flag has been set explicitly
* Add --collectors.disable-defaults to README
* Revert disable-defaults flag
* Shorten flags
* Fixup timex collector registration
* Fix end-to-end tests
* Change procfs and sysfs path flags
* Fix review comments
This collector is based on adjtimex(2) system call. The collector returns
three values, status if time is synchronised, offset to remote reference,
and local clock frequency adjustment.
Values are taken from kernel time keeping data structures to avoid getting
involved how the synchronisation is implemented. By that I mean one should
not care if time is update using ntpd, systemd.timesyncd, ptpd, and so on.
Since all time sync implementation will always end up telling to kernel what
is the status with time one can simply omit the software in between, and
look results of the syncing. As a positive side effect this makes collector
very quick and conceptually specific, this does not monitor availability of
NTP server, or network in between, or dns resolution, and other unrelated
but necessary things.
Minimum set of values to keep eye on are the following three:
The node_timex_sync_status tells if local clock is in sync with a remote
clock. Value is set to zero when synchronisation to a reliable server
is lost, or a time sync software is misconfigured.
The node_timex_offset_seconds tells how much local clock is off when
compared to reference. In case of multiple time references this value
is outcome of RFC 5905 adjustment algorithm. Ideally offset should be
close to zero, and it depends about use case how large value is
acceptable. For example a typical web server is probably fine if offset
is about 0.1 or less, but that would not be good enough for mobile phone
base station operator.
The node_timex_freq tells amount of adjustment to local clock tick
frequency. For example if offset is one second and growing the local
clock will need instruction to tick quicker. Number value itself is not
very important, and occasional small adjustments are fine. When
frequency is unusually in stable one can assume quality of time stamps
will not be accurate to very far in sub second range. Obviously
explaining why local clock frequency behaves like a passenger in roller
coaster is different matter. Explanations can vary from system load, to
environmental issues such as a machine being physically too hot.
Rest of the measurements can help when debugging. If you run a clock server
do probably want to collect and keep track of everything.
Pull-request: https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/pull/664
* Add metrics from SNTPv4 packet to ntp collector & add ntpd sanity check
1. Checking local clock against remote NTP daemon is bad idea, local
ntpd acting as a client should do it better and avoid excessive load on
remote NTP server so the collector is refactored to query local NTP
server.
2. Checking local clock against remote one does not check local ntpd
itself. Local ntpd may be down or out of sync due to network issues, but
clock will be OK.
3. Checking NTP server using sanity of it's response is tricky and
depends on ntpd implementation, that's why common `node_ntp_sanity`
variable is exported.
* `govendor add golang.org/x/net/ipv4`, it is dependency of github.com/beevik/ntp
* Update github.com/beevik/ntp to include boring SNTP fix
* Use variable name from RFC5905
* ntp: move code to make export of raw metrics more explicit
* Move NTP math to `github.com/beevik/ntp`
* Make `golint` happy
* Add some brief docs explaining `ntp` #655 and `timex` #664 modules
* ntp: drop XXX comment that got its decision
* ntp: add `_seconds` suffix to relevant metrics
* Better `node_ntp_leap` comment
* s/node_ntp_reftime/node_ntp_reference_timestamp_seconds/ as requested by @discordianfish
* Extract subsystem name to const as suggested by @SuperQ
* cpu: Metric 'package_throttles_total' is per package.
'package_throttles_total' is per package, not per cpu. This also reduces
the total number of cpu time series a lot (esp for multi core cpus).
* cpu: Better handling of a cpulist edge-case.
* cpu: Extract the package number from the directory name.
Do not rely on the range index.
* cpu: Add package_throttle_count for node0 cpu1
This file must be ignored by the cpu collector.
* Always try to return smartmon_device_info metric
Sometimes the 'model family' field is not returned by `smartctl' because
a disk is not in the disk database for the version of smartmontools
installed on the system.
In those cases, the device model and serial number is still returned (at
least as far as I have observed.
Re-work the logic to prefer the 'vendor' field first, and if not
present, always output a `smartmon_device_info` metric even if some
labels have empty values.
On the box I'm testing this on, where previously no metric was returned,
it now returns:
# HELP smartmon_device_info SMART metric device_info
# TYPE smartmon_device_info gauge
smartmon_device_info{disk="/dev/sda",type="sat",model_family="",device_model="INTEL REDACTED",serial_number="REDACTED",firmware_version="REDACTED"} 1
smartmon_device_info{disk="/dev/sdb",type="sat",model_family="",device_model="INTEL REDACTED",serial_number="REDACTED",firmware_version="REDACTED"} 1
smartmon_device_info{disk="/dev/sdc",type="sat",model_family="",device_model="INTEL REDACTED",serial_number="REDACTED",firmware_version="REDACTED"} 1
smartmon_device_info{disk="/dev/sdd",type="sat",model_family="",device_model="INTEL REDACTED",serial_number="REDACTED",firmware_version="REDACTED"} 1
smartmon_device_info{disk="/dev/sde",type="sat",model_family="",device_model="INTEL REDACTED",serial_number="REDACTED",firmware_version="REDACTED"} 1
smartmon_device_info{disk="/dev/sdf",type="sat",model_family="",device_model="INTEL REDACTED",serial_number="REDACTED",firmware_version="REDACTED"} 1
* Add trailing newline
Because POSIX:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/729795
Try to determine the corresponding 32bit architecture from the current
GOARCH and run the tests under that architecture. This only works on a
GOOS/GOARCH that can execute binaries for the smaller architecture, such
as running linux/386 binaries under linux/amd64.
I tested that this works under linux/amd64 and darwin/amd64, the rest of
the architectures is guesswork.
While we still only run regular tests on Intel/Linux architectures, this
covers general integer overflow issues like #629.
This avoids issues with integer overflows on 32-bit architectures. The
Prometheus data format is float64, so regardless of the architecture we
should handle large numbers.
Fixes#629.
Tested a DL360 Gen9 box with an Omni-Path adapter in it. The existing InfiniBand collector can provide support for the same metrics on Omni-Path cards as well.

* Add bcache collector for Linux
This collector gathers metrics related to the Linux block cache
(bcache) from sysfs.
* Removed commented out code
* Use project comment style
* Add _sectors to metric name to indicate unit
* Really use project comment style
* Rename bcache.go to bcache_linux.go
* Keep collector namespace clean
Rename:
- metric -> bcacheMetric
- periodStatsToMetrics -> bcachePeriodStatsToMetric
* Shorten slice initialization
* Change label names to backing_device, cache_device
* Remove five minute metrics (keep only total)
* Include units in additional metric names
* Enable bcache collector by default
* Provide metrics in seconds, not nanoseconds
* remove metrics with label "all"
* Add fixtures, update end-to-end for bcache collector
* Move fixtures/sys into tar.gz
This changeset moves the collector/fixtures/sys directory into
collector/fixtures/sys.tar.gz and tweaks the Makefile to unpack the
tarball before tests are run.
The reason for this change is that Windows does not allow colons in a
path (colons are present in some of the bcache fixture files), nor can
it (out of the box) deal with pathnames longer than 260 characters
(which we would be increasingly likely to hit if we tried to replace
colons with longer codes that are guaranteed not the turn up in regular
file names).
* Add ttar: plain text archive, replacement for tar
This changeset adds ttar, a plain text replacement for tar, and uses it
for the sysfs fixture archive. The syntax is loosely based on tar(1).
Using a plain text archive makes it possible to review changes without
downloading and extracting the archive. Also, when working on the repo,
git diff and git log become useful again, allowing a committer to verify
and track changes over time.
The code is written in bash, because bash is available out of the box on
all major flavors of Linux and on macOS. The feature set used is
restricted to bash version 3.2 because that is what Apple is still
shipping.
The programm also works on Windows if bash is installed. Obviously, it
does not solve the Windows limitations (path length limited to 260
characters, no symbolic links) that prompted the move to an archive
format in the first place.
* Add diskstats collector for Darwin

* Update README.md
* Add github.com/lufia/iostat to vendored packages
