Stale series are sent when there is a difference between current
and previous scrapes. Those series which disappeared in the current scrape
are marked as stale and sent to the remote storage.
Sending stale series requires memory allocation and in case when too many
series disappear in the same it could result in noticeable memory spike.
For example, re-deploy of a big fleet of service can result into
excessive memory usage for vmagent, because all the series with old
pod name will be marked as stale and sent to the remote write storage.
This change limits the number of stale series which can be sent at once,
so memory usage remains steady.

- Document the fix at docs/CHANGELOG.md
- Limit the concurrency for sendStaleMarkers() function in order to limit its memory usage
when big number of targets disappear and staleness markers are sent
for all the metrics exposed by these targets.
- Make sure that the writeRequestCtx is returned to the pool
when there is no need to send staleness markers.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3668
- Add a comment describing the purpose of the `role` field inside `apiConfig` struct
- Revert changes at lib/promscrape/discovery/dockerswarm/dockerswarm.go ,
since they reduce code readability. E.g. the reader needs to look up the named string constants
in order to get their values.
- Use promutils.Labels.GetLabels() instead of comparing promutils.Labels.Labels to nil.
This make the code more consistent with other places.
- Mention the release where the issue has been introduced at docs/CHANGELOG.md.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3624
See the list of configs supported by Prometheus at f88a0a7d83/discovery/nomad/nomad.go (L76-L84)
- Removed "token" option. In can be set either via NOMAD_TOKEN env var or via `bearer_token` config option.
- Removed "scheme" option. It is automatically detected depending on whether the `tls_config` is set.
- Removed "services" and "tags" options, since they aren't supported by Prometheus.
- Added "region" option. If it is missing, then the region is read from NOMAD_REGION env var.
If this var is empty, then it is set to "global" in the same way as Nomad client does.
See 865ee8d37c/api/api.go (L297)
and 865ee8d37c/api/api.go (L555-L556)
- If the "server" option is missing, then it is read from NOMAD_ADDR in the same way
as Nomad client does - see 865ee8d37c/api/api.go (L294-L296)

This should reduce the maximum memory usage for processScrapedData() function by 2x.
The only part, which can be IO-bound in the processScrapedData() is pushData() call,
when it buffers data to persistent queue if the remote storage cannot keep up
with the data ingestion speed. In this case it is OK if the scrape pace will be limited.
This should reduce memory usage when scraping big number of targets,
since this limits the summary memory usage during concurrent parsing and relabeling
by the number of available CPU cores.
- Document the bugfix at docs/CHANGELOG.md
- Wait until all the worker goroutines are done in consulWatcher.mustStop()
- Do not log `context canceled` errors when discovering consul serviceNames
- Removed explicit handling of gzipped responses at lib/promscrape/discoveryutils.Client,
since this handling is automatically performed by net/http.Transport.
See DisableCompression option at https://pkg.go.dev/net/http#Transport .
- Remove explicit handling of the proxyURL, since it is automatically handled
by net/http.Transport. See Proxy option at https://pkg.go.dev/net/http#Transport .
- Expliticly set MaxIdleConnsPerHost, since its default value equals to 2.
Such a small value may result in excess tcp connection churn
when more than 2 concurrent requests are processed by lib/promscrape/discoveryutils.Client.
- Do not set explicitly the `Host` request header, since it is automatically set by net/http.Client.
- Backport the bugfix to the recently added nomad_sd_configs - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3367
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3468
- Remove undocumented `username` and `password` config options from `nomad_sd_config`.
TODO: probably, remove these options from `consul_sd_config` too?
These options exist there for backwards compatibility purposes.
- Add __meta_nomad_service_alloc_id and __meta_nomad_service_job_id meta-labels
These labels contain AllocID and JobID fields for the discovered Nomad services.
- Various typo fixes.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3367
This fixes handling of values bigger than 2GiB for the following command-line flags:
- -storage.minFreeDiskSpaceBytes
- -remoteWrite.maxDiskUsagePerURL
* lib/promscrape/discovery/azure: remove API server from URL returned by azure
* lib/promscrape/discovery/azure: validate nextLink contains same URL as apiServer
- Return meta-labels for the discovered targets via promutils.Labels
instead of map[string]string. This improves the speed of generating
meta-labels for discovered targets by up to 5x.
- Remove memory allocations in hot paths during ScrapeWork generation.
The ScrapeWork contains scrape settings for a single discovered target.
This improves the service discovery speed by up to 2x.
The issue was in the `labels := dst[offset:]` line in the beginning of appendExtraLabels() function.
The `dst` may be re-allocated when adding extra labels to it. In this case the addition of `exported_`
prefix to labels inside `labels` slice become invisible in the returned `dst` labels.
While at it, properly handle some corner cases:
- Add additional `exported_` prefix to clashing metric labels with already existing `exported_` prefix.
- Store scraped metric names in `exported___name__` label if scrape target contains `__name__` label.

Thanks to @jplanckeel for the initial attempt to fix this issue
at https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/3281
Sort labels explicitly after calling the ParsedConfigs.Apply() when needed.
This reduces CPU usage when performing metric-level relabeling, where labels' sorting isn't needed.
Previously the `__address__` label could contain only `host:port` part of the target url,
while the scheme and metrics path were obtained from `__scheme__` and `__metrics_path__`
labels. Now it is possible to set the full url in `__address__` label.
This makes valid the following scrape config, which is frequently used by novice users:
scrape_configs:
- job_name: foo
static_configs:
- targets:
- http://host1/metrics1
- https://host2/metrics2
This reduces scrape duration for targets returning big responses.
The response body was already read into memory in stream parsing mode before this change,
so this commit shouldn't increase memory usage.
Cache sanitized label names and return them next time.
This reduces the number of allocations and speeds up the SanitizeLabelName()
function for common case when the number of unique label names is smaller than 100k
ioutil.ReadAll is deprecated since Go1.16 - see https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.16#ioutil
VictoriaMetrics requires at least Go1.18, so it is OK to switch from ioutil.ReadAll to io.ReadAll.
This is a follow-up for 02ca2342ab
The ioutil.{Read|Write}File is deprecated since Go1.16 -
see https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.16#ioutil
VictoriaMetrics needs at least Go1.18, so it is safe to remove ioutil usage
from source code.
This is a follow-up for 02ca2342ab
The 429 status code means that the server is overwhelmed with requests.
The client can retry the request after some wait time.
Implement this strategy for service discovery and scrape requests.
