- Drop samples and return true from remotewrite.TryPush() at fast path when all the remote storage
systems are configured with the disabled on-disk queue, every in-memory queue is full
and -remoteWrite.dropSamplesOnOverload is set to true. This case is quite common,
so it should be optimized. Previously additional CPU time was spent on per-remoteWriteCtx
relabeling and other processing in this case.
- Properly count the number of dropped samples inside remoteWriteCtx.pushInternalTrackDropped().
Previously dropped samples were counted only if -remoteWrite.dropSamplesOnOverload flag is set.
In reality, the samples are dropped when they couldn't be sent to the queue because in-memory queue is full
and on-disk queue is disabled.
The remoteWriteCtx.pushInternalTrackDropped() function is called by streaming aggregation for pushing
the aggregated data to the remote storage. Streaming aggregation cannot wait until the remote storage
processes pending data, so it drops aggregated samples in this case.
- Clarify the description for -remoteWrite.disableOnDiskQueue command-line flag at -help output,
so it is clear that this flag can be set individually per each -remoteWrite.url.
- Make the -remoteWrite.dropSamplesOnOverload flag global. If some of the remote storage systems
are configured with the disabled on-disk queue, then there is no sense in keeping samples
on some of these systems, while dropping samples on the remaining systems, since this
will result in global stall on the remote storage system with the disabled on-disk queue
and with the -remoteWrite.dropSamplesOnOverload=false flag. vmagent will always return false
from remotewrite.TryPush() in this case. This will result in infinite duplicate samples
written to the remaining remote storage systems. That's why the -remoteWrite.dropSamplesOnOverload
is forcibly set to true if more than one -remoteWrite.disableOnDiskQueue flag is set.
This allows proceeding with newly scraped / pushed samples by sending them to the remaining
remote storage systems, while dropping them on overloaded systems with the -remoteWrite.disableOnDiskQueue flag set.
- Verify that the remoteWriteCtx.TryPush() returns true in the TestRemoteWriteContext_TryPush_ImmutableTimeseries test.
- Mention in vmagent docs that the -remoteWrite.disableOnDiskQueue command-line flag can be set individually per each -remoteWrite.url.

### Describe Your Changes
In most cases histograms are exposed in sorted manner with lower buckets
being first. This means that during scraping buckets with lower bounds
have higher chance of being updated earlier than upper ones.
Previously, values were propagated from upper to lower bounds, which
means that in most cases that would produce results higher than expected
once all buckets will become updated.
Propagating from upper bound effectively limits highest value of
histogram to the value of previous scrape. Once the data will become
consistent in the subsequent evaluation this causes spikes in the
result.
Changing propagation to be from lower to higher buckets reduces value
spikes in most cases due to nature of the original inconsistency.
See: https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4580
An example histogram with previous(red) and updated(blue) versions:
![1719565540](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/assets/1367798/605c5e60-6abe-45b5-89b2-d470b60127b8)
This also makes logic of filling nan values with lower buckets values: [1 2 3 nan nan nan] => [1 2 3 3 3 3] obsolete.
Since buckets are now fixed from lower ones to upper this happens in the main loop, so there is no need in a second one.

### Describe Your Changes
These changes support using Azure Managed Identity for the `vmbackup`
utility. It adds two new environment variables:
* `AZURE_USE_DEFAULT_CREDENTIAL`: Instructs the `vmbackup` utility to
build a connection using the [Azure Default
Credential](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/azidentity@v1.5.2#NewDefaultAzureCredential)
mode. This causes the Azure SDK to check for a variety of environment
variables to try and make a connection. By default, it tries to use
managed identity if that is set up.
This will close
https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5984
### Checklist
The following checks are **mandatory**:
- [x] My change adheres [VictoriaMetrics contributing
guidelines](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/contributing/).
### Testing
However you normally test the `vmbackup` utility using Azure Blob should
continue to work without any changes. The set up for that is environment
specific and not listed out here.
Once regression testing has been done you can set up [Azure Managed
Identity](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/managed-identities-azure-resources/overview)
so your resource (AKS, VM, etc), can use that credential method. Once it
is set up, update your environment variables according to the updated
documentation.
I added unit tests to the `FS.Init` function, then made my changes, then
updated the unit tests to capture the new branches.
I tested this in our environment, but with SAS token auth and managed
identity and it works as expected.

### Describe Your Changes
Fix Date metricid cache consistency under concurrent use.
When one goroutine calls Has() and does not find the cache entry in the
immutable map it will acquire a lock and check the mutable map. And it
is possible that before that lock is acquired, the entry is moved from
the mutable map to the immutable map by another goroutine causing a
cache miss.
The fix is to check the immutable map again once the lock is acquired.

This reverts commit 6e395048d3.
Reason for revert: the previous logic was correct.
The purpose of `-search.maxSamplesPerQuery` command-line flag is to limit the amounts of CPU resources,
which could be taken by a single query - see https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#resource-usage-limits .
VictoriaMetrics processes samples in blocks during querying - it reads the block, then unpacks it,
then filters out samples outside the selected time range. This means that it _spends CPU time_
on reading and unpacking of _all the samples_ in every block on the requested time range,
even if only a single sample per each block matches the given time range.
The previous logic was effectively limiting CPU time a single query could take.
The new logic fails limiting CPU time a single query could take in some pathological cases
when only a small fraction of samples per each requested block fit the requested time range.
This allows performing multiplication DoS-attacks by querying very narrow time ranges over historical blocks,
which tend to be full. For example, if the `-search.maxSamplesPerQuery` equals to a billion,
and the query requests a single sample out of 8K samples per each block, this means that the query
may unpack a billion of such blocks without exceeding the limit, e.g. it may unpack and process 8K*1e9=8e12 samples.
This is not what the resource usage limits were created for originally - see https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#resource-usage-limits
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5851
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/6464
Reason for revert: this commit doesn't resolve real security issues,
while it complicates the resulting code in subtle ways (aka security circus).
Comparison of two strings (passwords, auth keys) takes a few nanoseconds.
This comparison is performed in non-trivial http handler, which takes thousands
of nanoseconds, and the request handler timing is non-deterministic because of Go runtime,
Go GC and other concurrently executed goroutines. The request handler timing is even
more non-deterministic when the application is executed in shared environments
such as Kubernetes, where many other applications may run on the same host and use
shared resources of this host (CPU, RAM bandwidth, network bandwidth).
Additionally, it is expected that the passwords and auth keys are passed via TLS-encrypted connections.
Establishing TLS connections takes additional non-trivial time (millions of nanoseconds),
which depends on many factors such as network latency, network congestion, etc.
This makes impossible to conduct timing attack on passwords and auth keys in VictoriaMetrics components.

### Describe Your Changes
Trimming content which is loaded from an external pass leads to obscure
issues in case user-defined input contained trimmed chars. For example.
user-defined password "foo\n" will become "foo" while user will expect
it to contain a new line.
---
For example, a user defines a password which ends with `\n`. This often
happens when user Kubernetes secrets and manually encodes value as
base64-encoded string.
In this case vmauth configuration might look like:
```
users:
- url_prefix:
- http://vminsert:8480/insert/0/prometheus/api/v1/write
name: foo
username: foo
password: "foobar\n"
```
vmagent configuration for this setup will use the following flags:
```
-remoteWrite.url=http://vmauth:8427/
-remoteWrite.basicAuth.passwordFile=/tmp/vmagent-password
-remoteWrite.basicAuth.username="foo"
```
Where `/tmp/vmagent-password` is a file with `foobar\n` password.
Before this change such configuration will result in `401 Unauthorized`
response received by vmagent since after file content will become
`foobar`.
---
An example with Kubernetes operator which uses a secret to reference the
same password in multiple configurations.
<details>
<summary>See full manifests</summary>
`Secret`:
```
apiVersion: v1
data:
name: Zm9v # foo
password: Zm9vYmFy # foobar\n
username: Zm9v= # foo
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: vmuser
```
`VMUser`:
```
apiVersion: operator.victoriametrics.com/v1beta1
kind: VMUser
metadata:
name: vmagents
spec:
generatePassword: false
name: vmagents
targetRefs:
- crd:
kind: VMAgent
name: some-other-agent
namespace: example
username: foo
# note - the secret above is referenced to provide password
passwordRef:
name: vmagent
key: password
```
`VMAgent`:
```
apiVersion: operator.victoriametrics.com/v1beta1
kind: VMAgent
metadata:
name: example
spec:
selectAllByDefault: true
scrapeInterval: 5s
replicaCount: 1
remoteWrite:
- url: "http://vmauth-vmauth-example:8427/api/v1/write"
# note - the secret above is referenced as well
basicAuth:
username:
name: vmagent
key: username
password:
name: vmagent
key: password
```
</details>
Since both config target exactly the same `Secret` object it is expected
to work, but apparently the result will be `401 Unauthrized` error.
