The SECURITY label should be applied only to changes, which fix security issues.
The change at ad839aa492 adds new command-line flags, which can be used
for improving security in some cases. They do not fix any security issues.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5111
The new metric gets increased each time `-search.logQueryMemoryUsage` memory limit
is exceeded by a query. This metric should help to identify expensive and heavy queries
without inspecting the logs.

The new rule for vmalert supposed to detect groups that miss their
evaulations due to slow queries.
Signed-off-by: hagen1778 <roman@victoriametrics.com>
The panel `Errors rate to Alertmanager` had `group` label filter
applied to the expression, while the metric `vmalert_alerts_send_errors_total`
doesn't have that label. This resulted into always empty results.

Previously url watchers for pod, service and node objects could be mistakenly closed
when service discovery was set up only for endpoints and endpointslice roles,
since watchers for these roles may start start pod, service and node url watchers
with nil apiWatcher passed to groupWatcher.startWatchersForRole().
Now all the url watchers, which belong to a particular groupWatcher, are stopped at once
when this groupWatcher has no apiWatcher subscribers.

The issue has been introduced in v1.93.5 when addressing https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4850
* do not print redundant error logs when failed to scrape consul or nomad target
prometheus performs the same because it uses consul lib which just drops the error(1806bcb38c/api/api.go (L1134))
- Make sure that invalid/missing TLS CA file or TLS client certificate files at vmagent startup
don't prevent from processing the corresponding scrape targets after the file becomes correct,
without the need to restart vmagent.
Previously scrape targets with invalid TLS CA file or TLS client certificate files
were permanently dropped after the first attempt to initialize them, and they didn't
appear until the next vmagent reload or the next change in other places of the loaded scrape configs.
- Make sure that TLS CA is properly re-loaded from file after it changes without the need to restart vmagent.
Previously the old TLS CA was used until vmagent restart.
- Properly handle errors during http request creation for the second attempt to send data to remote system
at vmagent and vmalert. Previously failed request creation could result in nil pointer dereferencing,
since the returned request is nil on error.
- Add more context to the logged error during AWS sigv4 request signing before sending the data to -remoteWrite.url at vmagent.
Previously it could miss details on the source of the request.
- Do not create a new HTTP client per second when generating OAuth2 token needed to put in Authorization header
of every http request issued by vmagent during service discovery or target scraping.
Re-use the HTTP client instead until the corresponding scrape config changes.
- Cache error at lib/promauth.Config.GetAuthHeader() in the same way as the auth header is cached,
e.g. the error is cached for a second now. This should reduce load on CPU and OAuth2 server
when auth header cannot be obtained because of temporary error.
- Share tls.Config.GetClientCertificate function among multiple scrape targets with the same tls_config.
Cache the loaded certificate and the error for one second. This should significantly reduce CPU load
when scraping big number of targets with the same tls_config.
- Allow loading TLS certificates from HTTP and HTTPs urls by specifying these urls at `tls_config->cert_file` and `tls_config->key_file`.
- Improve test coverage at lib/promauth
- Skip unreachable or invalid files specified at `scrape_config_files` during vmagent startup, since these files may become valid later.
Previously vmagent was exitting in this case.

re-phrasing and linking missing docs.
`eval_delay` was added to tests to verify it can be unmarshalled.
`eval_delay` is now applied before timestamp alignment to make it more predictable.
Before, if delay < interval the timestamp won't be aligned.
`eval_delay` and `eval_offset` was added to API output.
`PreviouslySentSeriesToRW` converted to private `previouslySentSeriesToRW`.

* app/vmselect: limit the number of parallel workers by 32
The change should improve performance and memory usage during query processing
on machines with big number of CPU cores. The number of parallel workers for
query processing is controlled via `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery` command-line flag.
By default, the number of workers is limited by the number of available CPU cores,
but not more than 32. The limit can be increased via `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery`.

- Add the description of `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery` to docs/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.md
- Limit the maximum value, which can be passed to `-search.maxWorkersPerQuery`, to GOMAXPROCS,
because bigger values may worsen query performance and increase CPU usage
- Improve the the description of the change at docs/CHANGELOG.md. Mark it as FEATURE instead of BUGFIX,
since it is closer to a feature than to a bugfix.

This can be useful in the following queries:
drop_empty_series(temperature <= 30) default 40
This query drops temperature series with all the values bigger than 30 on the selected time range,
while replacing gaps in the remaining series with 40.
The query without drop_empty_series:
(temperature <= 30) default 40
would leave all the temperature series with all the values bigger than 30 on the selected time range,
and replace all their values with 40. This is not what could be epxected in some cases

This is a follow-up for f60c08a7bd
Changes:
- Make sure all the urls related to NewRelic protocol start from /newrelic . Previously some urls were started from /api/v1/newrelic
- Remove /api/v1 part from NewRelic urls, since it has no sense
- Remove automatic transformation from CamelCase to snake_case for NewRelic labels and metric names,
since it may complicate the transition from NewRelic to VictoriaMetrics. Preserve all the metric names and label names,
so users could query metrics and labels by the same names which are used in NewRelic.
The automatic transformation from CamelCase to snake_case can be added later as a special action for relabeling rules if needed.
- Properly update per-tenant data ingestion stats at app/vmagent/newrelic/request_handler.go . Previously it was always zero.
- Fix NewRelic urls in vmagent when multitenant data ingestion is enabled. Previously they were mistakenly started from `/`.
- Document NewRelic data ingestion url at docs/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.md
- Remove superflouos memory allocations at lib/protoparser/newrelic
- Improve tests at lib/protoparser/newrelic/*
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3520
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/4712
- Make more clear the docs at docs/enterprise.md, so readers could figure out faster
on how to obtain enterprise key and how to pass it to VictoriaMetrics Enterprise components.
- Fix examples at docs/enterprise.md, which were referring to non-existing `-license-file` command-line flag.
The `-licenseFile` command-line flag must be used instead.
- Improve the description of `-license*` command-line flags, so users could understand
faster how to use them.
- Improve the warning message, which is emitted when the deprecated -eula command-line flag is passed,
so the user could figure out how to switch faster to -license* command-line flags.
- Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components with both -license and -licenseFile command-line flags.
- Disallow running VictoriaMetrics components when -licensFile points to an empty file.
- Consistently use the phrase "This flag is available only in Enterprise binaries" across
all the enterprise-specific command-line flags.
- Remove unneeded level of indirection for `noLicenseMessage` and `expiredMessage` string contants
in order to improve code readability and maintainability.
- Remove unneded `return` statements after `logger.Fatalf()` calls, since these calls exit the app and never return.
- Make sure that the info log message about successful license verification is emitted
when the license is verified successfully. Previously the error message could be logged
when the license payload is invalid or if it misses some required features.
- Reduce vertical space usage, so more information is available on the screen without the need to scroll.
- Show information for lines with higher values at the top of the legend under the graph.
This should simplify graph analysis when it contains many lines.
Fix vminsert/vmstorage/vmselect metrics filtering when dashboard is used

reduce lock contention for heavy aggregation requests

Strip sensitive information such as auth headers or passwords from datasource, remote-read,
remote-write or notifier URLs in log messages or UI. This behavior is by default and is controlled via
`-datasource.showURL`, `-remoteRead.showURL`, `remoteWrite.showURL` or `-notifier.showURL` cmd-line flags.

* lib/promscrape: make concurrency control optional
Before, `-maxConcurrentInserts` was limiting all calls to `promscrape.Parse`
function: during ingestion and scraping. This behavior is incorrect.
Cmd-line flag `-maxConcurrentInserts` should have effect onl on ingestion.
Since both pipelines use the same `promscrape.Parse` function, we extend it
to make concurrency limiter optional. So caller can decide whether concurrency
should be limited or not.

obsolete.

- Move uniqueFields from rows to blockStreamMerger struct.
This allows localizing all the references to uniqueFields inside blockStreamMerger.mustWriteBlock(),
which should improve readability and maintainability of the code.
- Remove logging of the event when blocks cannot be merged because they contain more than maxColumnsPerBlock,
since the provided logging didn't provide the solution for the issue with too many columns.
I couldn't figure out the proper solution, which could be helpful for end user,
so decided to remove the logging until we find the solution.
This commit also contains the following additional changes:
- It truncates field names longer than 128 chars during logs ingestion.
This should prevent from ingesting bogus field names.
This also should prevent from too big columnsHeader blocks,
which could negatively affect search query performance,
since columnsHeader is read on every scan of the corresponding data block.
- It limits the maximum length of const column value to 256.
Longer values are stored in an ordinary columns.
This helps limiting the size of columnsHeader blocks
and improving search query performance by avoiding
reading too long const columns on every scan of the corresponding data block.
- It deduplicates columns with identical names during data ingestion
and background merging. Previously it was possible to pass columns with duplicate names
to block.mustInitFromRows(), and they were stored as is in the block.
