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.
Previously the -maxConcurrentInserts was limiting the number of established client connections,
which write data to VictoriaMetrics. Some of these connections could be idle.
Such connections do not consume big amounts of CPU and RAM, so there is a little sense in limiting
the number of such connections. So now the -maxConcurrentInserts command-line option
limits the number of concurrently executed insert requests, not including idle connections.
It is recommended removing -maxConcurrentInserts command-line option, since the default value
for this option should work good for most cases.
This should prevent from out of memory errors when big number of vmselect
nodes send many concurrent requests to vmstorage
The limit can be controlled at vmstorage via the following command-line flags:
- search.maxConcurrentRequests
- search.maxQueueDuration
See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.html#resource-usage-limits
- 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.

- 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.

Previously too short lookbehind window d for rate(m[d]) could be automatically extended
if it didn't cover at least two raw samples. This was needed in order to guarantee
non-empty results from rate(m[d]) on short time ranges.
Now the lookbehind window isn't extended if it is set explicitly,
since it is expected that the user knows what he is doing.

Previously only up to 100K results were cached.
This could result in sub-optimal performance when more than 100K unique strings were actually used.
For example, when the relabeling rule was applied to a million of unique Graphite metric names
like in the https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3466
This commit should reduce the long-term CPU usage for https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3466
after all the unique Graphite metrics are registered in the FastStringMatcher.Transform() cache.
It is expected that the number of unique strings, which are passed to FastStringMatcher.Match(),
FastStringTransformer.Transform() and to InternString() during the last 5 minutes,
is limited, so the function results fit memory. Otherwise OOM crash can occur.
This should be the case for typical production workloads.
This should simplify further debugging, since the first thing to start the debugging by query trace
is to know the version of VictoriaMetrics, which produced this trace.

The main purpose of this command-line flag is to increase the lifetime of low-end flash storage
with the limited number of write operations it can perform. Such flash storage is usually
installed on Raspberry PI or similar appliances.
For example, `-inmemoryDataFlushInterval=1h` reduces the frequency of disk write operations
to up to once per hour if the ingested one-hour worth of data fits the limit for in-memory data.
The in-memory data is searchable in the same way as the data stored on disk.
VictoriaMetrics automatically flushes the in-memory data to disk on graceful shutdown via SIGINT signal.
The in-memory data is lost on unclean shutdown (hardware power loss, OOM crash, SIGKILL).

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

Previously the `quotesEscape` function was escaping only double quotes.
This wasn't enough, since the input string could contain other special chars,
which must be escaped when put inside JSON string. For example, carriage return and line feed chars (\n\r),
backslash char, etc. This led to the following issues, which were improperly fixed:
- https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/890 - this issue
was "fixed" by introducing the `crlfEscape` function, which led to unnecessary
complications in user templates, while not fixing various corner cases
such as backslash chars in the input string.
See 1de15ad490
- https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3139 - this issue
was "fixed" by urlencoding the whole string passed to -external.alert.source
command-line flag. This led to invalid urls, which couldn't be parsed by Grafana.
See 00c838353d
and 4bd0244599
This commit properly encodes the input string passed to `quotesEscape`, so it can be safely embedded inside JSON strings.
This commit deprecates crlfEscape template function and adds the following new template functions:
- strvalue and stripDomain - these functions are supported by Prometheus, so they were added
for compatibility purposes.
- jsonEscape and htmlEscape for converting the input string to valid quoted JSON string
and for html-escaping the input string, so it could be safely embedded as a plaintext
into html.
This commit also documents all supported template functions at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html#template-functions
The deprecated crlfEscape function isn't documented on purpose, since its usefulness is negative in general case.
This reverts commit 00c838353d.
Reason for revert: it incorrectly fixes the issue https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3139 .
Now `-external.alert.source=explore?orgId=1&left=...` is converted to the following invalid url, which cannot be handled by Grafana:
https://grafana.example.com/explore%3ForgId%3D1%26left%3D...
The next commit will contain the correct fix of the issue - the `quotesEscape` function must
properly escape the string, so it could be embedded into JSON string. This function must
properly escape \n\r chars too. In this case the `crlfEscape` function becomes unnecessary.
Actually, the next commit makes the `crlfEscape` function deprecated.
The searchTSIDs function was searching for metricIDs matching the the given tag filters
and then was locating the corresponding TSID entries for the found metricIDs.
The TSID entries aren't needed when searching for time series names (aka MetricName),
so this commit removes the uneeded TSID search from the implementation of /api/v1/series API.
This improves perfromance of /api/v1/series calls.
This commit also improves performance a bit for /api/v1/query and /api/v1/query_range calls,
since now these calls cache small metricIDs instead of big TSID entries
in the indexdb/tagFilters cache (now this cache is named indexdb/tagFiltersToMetricIDs)
without the need to compress the saved entries in order to save cache space.
This commit also removes concurrency limiter during searching for matching time series,
which was introduced in 8f16388428, since the concurrency
for all the read queries is already limited with -search.maxConcurrentRequests command-line flag.

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:

Cache `action: replace` results for non-trivial regexs and return them next time
instead of performing CPU-intensive regex replacement.
Optimize also `action: labelmap_all` and `action: replace_all` in the same way.
Previously empty series (e.g. series with all NaN samples) were passed to aggregate functions.
Such series must be ingored by all the aggregate functions.
So it is better from consistency PoV filtering out empty series before applying aggregate functions.
* app/vmselect: ignore empty series for `limit_offset`
VictoriaMetrics doesn't return empty series (with all NaN values) to
the user. But such series are filtered after transform functions.
It means `limit_offset` will account for empty series as well.
For example, let's consider following data set:
```
time series:
foo{label="1"} NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN // empty series
foo{label="2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
foo{label="3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
When user requests all series for metric `foo` the empty series
will be filtered out:
```
/query=foo:
foo{label="v2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
foo{label="v3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
But `limit_offset(1, 1, foo)` is applied to original series, not filtered yet.
So it will return `foo{label="v2"}` (skips the first in list)
```
/query=limit_offset(1, 1, foo):
foo{label="v2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
```
Expected result would be to apply `limit_offset` to already filtered list,
so in result we receive `foo{label="v3"}`:
```
/query=limit_offset(1, 1, foo):
foo{label="v3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
The change does exactly that - filters empty series before applying `limit_offset`.

* vmalert: always re-evaluate Annotations
Previously, Annotations were evaluated only:
1. On alert creating.
2. On alert's value change.
This is premature optimization. It was assumed that since annotations
could contain only text with alert's labels or value - there is no need
in spending resources to re-compile Annotations.
Later, template function `query` was added, which can execute
arbitrary queries and return different results on every evaluation.
So if it was used in annotations, it would be executed only on init
or value change.
Another case when optimization caused an issue - annotations hot reload.
In this case, annotations of the active alert won't change even if Rule's
annotations were changed.
This fix enables Annotations re-evaluation on each iteration to resolve
issues above. It would have some impact on performance, but it is unlikely
it will be noticeable.
