The following syntax is supported: _time:filter offset off
For example:
- _time:5m offset 1h - 5-minute duration one hour before the current time
- _time:2023 offset 2w - 2023 year with the 2 weeks offset in the past
The `a op b keep_metric_names` is ambigouos to `a op (b keep_metric_names)` when `b` is a transform or rollup function.
For example, `a + rate(b) keep_metric_names`. So it is better to use more clear syntax: `(a op b) keep_metric_names`
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3710
* metricsql: add support of using keep_metric_names for binary operations

Previously all the newly ingested time series were registered in global `MetricName -> TSID` index.
This index was used during data ingestion for locating the TSID (internal series id)
for the given canonical metric name (the canonical metric name consists of metric name plus all its labels sorted by label names).
The `MetricName -> TSID` index is stored on disk in order to make sure that the data
isn't lost on VictoriaMetrics restart or unclean shutdown.
The lookup in this index is relatively slow, since VictoriaMetrics needs to read the corresponding
data block from disk, unpack it, put the unpacked block into `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache,
and then search for the given `MetricName -> TSID` entry there. So VictoriaMetrics
uses in-memory cache for speeding up the lookup for active time series.
This cache is named `storage/tsid`. If this cache capacity is enough for all the currently ingested
active time series, then VictoriaMetrics works fast, since it doesn't need to read the data from disk.
VictoriaMetrics starts reading data from `MetricName -> TSID` on-disk index in the following cases:
- If `storage/tsid` cache capacity isn't enough for active time series.
Then just increase available memory for VictoriaMetrics or reduce the number of active time series
ingested into VictoriaMetrics.
- If new time series is ingested into VictoriaMetrics. In this case it cannot find
the needed entry in the `storage/tsid` cache, so it needs to consult on-disk `MetricName -> TSID` index,
since it doesn't know that the index has no the corresponding entry too.
This is a typical event under high churn rate, when old time series are constantly substituted
with new time series.
Reading the data from `MetricName -> TSID` index is slow, so inserts, which lead to reading this index,
are counted as slow inserts, and they can be monitored via `vm_slow_row_inserts_total` metric exposed by VictoriaMetrics.
Prior to this commit the `MetricName -> TSID` index was global, e.g. it contained entries sorted by `MetricName`
for all the time series ever ingested into VictoriaMetrics during the configured -retentionPeriod.
This index can become very large under high churn rate and long retention. VictoriaMetrics
caches data from this index in `indexdb/dataBlocks` in-memory cache for speeding up index lookups.
The `indexdb/dataBlocks` cache may occupy significant share of available memory for storing
recently accessed blocks at `MetricName -> TSID` index when searching for newly ingested time series.
This commit switches from global `MetricName -> TSID` index to per-day index. This allows significantly
reducing the amounts of data, which needs to be cached in `indexdb/dataBlocks`, since now VictoriaMetrics
consults only the index for the current day when new time series is ingested into it.
The downside of this change is increased indexdb size on disk for workloads without high churn rate,
e.g. with static time series, which do no change over time, since now VictoriaMetrics needs to store
identical `MetricName -> TSID` entries for static time series for every day.
This change removes an optimization for reducing CPU and disk IO spikes at indexdb rotation,
since it didn't work correctly - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 .
At the same time the change fixes the issue, which could result in lost access to time series,
which stop receving new samples during the first hour after indexdb rotation - see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698
The issue with the increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation will be addressed
in a separate commit according to https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401#issuecomment-1553488685

- Clarify docs about -replicationFactor command-line flag at vmselect
- Clarify description for -replicationFactor and -search.skipSlowReplicas command-line flags
- Fix the logic for returning responses if -search.skipSlowReplicas command-line flag
is enabled. The logic was broken in the 173ccf4333,
so it could return responses only if some of vmstorage nodes return error,
while it should return when query results are successfully collected from more than
(len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor) vmstorage nodes.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1207
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/711
* vmselect: introduce `search.skipSlowReplicas` cmd-line flag
vmselect has two logical conditions during request processing when
`-replicationFactor` cmd-line flag is set:
1. If at least `len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor` responded, it could skip
waiting for the rest of nodes to respond. This could lead to problems described
here https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1207.
2. Mark response as partial if less than `len(storageNodes) - replicationFactor` responded
without an error.
The P1 showed itself error-prone and became the main reason why
`-replicationFactor` wasn't recommended to use at vmselect level.
However, this optimization could be still very useful in situations
when there are slow and fast replicas in cluster.
But P2 remains viable and important conditionless.
Hiding P1 behind the feature-flag `search.skipSlowReplicas`
should make `-replicationFactor` flag usable again. And let users
choose whether they want P1 to be respected.

This reverts the following commits:
- e0e16a2d36
- 2ce02a7fe6
The reason for revert: the updated logic breaks assumptions made
when fixing https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698 .
For example, if a time series stop receiving new samples during the first
day after the indexdb rotation, there are chances that the time series
won't be registered in the new indexdb. This is OK until the next indexdb
rotation, since the time series is registered in the previous indexdb,
so it can be found during queries. But the time series will become invisible
for search after the next indexdb rotation, while its data is still there.
There is also incompletely solved issue with the increased CPU and disk IO resource
usage just after the indexdb rotation. There was an attempt to fix it, but it didn't fix
it in full, while introducing the issue mentioned above. See https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401
TODO: to find out the solution, which simultaneously solves the following issues:
- increased memory usage for setups high churn rate and long retention (e.g. what the reverted commit does)
- increased CPU and disk IO usage during indexdb rotation ( https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1401 )
- https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2698
Possible solution - to create the new indexdb in one hour before the indexdb rotation
and to gradually pre-populate it with the needed index data during the last hour before indexdb rotation.
Then the new indexdb will contain all the needed data just after the rotation,
so it won't trigger increased CPU and disk IO.
- Document the change at docs/CHANGELOG.md
- Clarify comments for non-trivial code touched by the commit
- Improve the logic behind maybeCreateIndexes():
- Correctly create per-day indexes if the indexdb rotation is performed during
the first hour or the last hour of the day by UTC.
Previously there was a possibility of missing index entries on that day.
- Increase the duration for creating new indexes in the current indexdb for up to 22 hours
after indexdb rotation. This should reduce the increased resource usage
after indexdb rotation.
It is safe to postpone index creation for the current day until the last hour
of the current day after indexdb rotation by UTC, since the corresponding (date, ...)
entries exist in the previous indexdb.
- Search for TSID by (date, MetricName) in both the current and the previous indexdb.
Previously the search was performed only in the current indexdb. This could lead
to excess creation of per-day indexes for the current day just after indexdb rotation.
- Search for (date, metricID) entries in both the current and the previous indexdb.

Without reset, labels duplicates could have been added during stream aggregation.
Since `ctx.Labels` is reused during processing of many series, each series will
add its labels to the context. Even if the same labels were already addeded on prev
iteration. Now, we reset `ctx.Labels` on each iteration to contain so labels from
different series didn't interfere.
This could have cause exceeding of the limit on number of labels per pushed time series.

app/vmalert: detect alerting rules which don't match any series at all
vmalert starts to understand /query responses which contain object:
```
"stats":{"seriesFetched": "42"}
```
If object is present, vmalert parses it and populates a new field
`SeriesFetched`. This field is then used to populate the new metric
`vmalert_alerting_rules_last_evaluation_series_fetched` and to
display warnings in the vmalert's UI.
If response doesn't contain the new object (Prometheus or
VictoriaMetrics earlier than v1.90), then `SeriesFetched=nil`.
In this case, UI will contain no additional warnings.
And `vmalert_alerting_rules_last_evaluation_series_fetched` will
be set to `-1`. Negative value of the metric will help to compile
correct alerting rule in follow-up.

The logic employed for re-using the previously loaded scrape target was broken initially.
The commit cc0427897c tried to fix it, but the new logic
became too complex and fragile. So it is better to just remove this logic,
since the targets from temporarily broken file should be eventually loaded on next
attempts every -promscrape.fileSDCheckInterval

- Properly cleanup resources occupied by already initialized aggregators
when the current aggregator fails to be initialized
- Expose distinct vmagent_streamaggr_config_reload* metrics per each -remoteWrite.streamAggr.config
This should simplify monitoring and debugging failed reloads
- Remove race condition at app/vminsert/common.MustStopStreamAggr when calling sa.MustStop() while sa
could be in use at realoadSaConfig()
- Remove lib/streamaggr.aggregator.hasState global variable, since it may negatively impact scalability
on system with big number of CPU cores at hasState.Store(true) call inside aggregator.Push().
- Remove fine-grained aggregator reload - reload all the aggregators on config change instead.
This simplifies the code a bit. The fine-grained aggregator reload may be returned back
if there will be demand from real users for it.
- Check -relabelConfig and -streamAggr.config files when single-node VictoriaMetrics runs with -dryRun flag
- Return back accidentally removed changelog for v1.87.4 at docs/CHANGELOG.md

- Compare directory names instead of paths to directory when determining which persistent queues must be deleted
This is less error-prone solution, since paths to the same directory can differ, which could lead
to accidental directory removal for the existing -remoteWrite.url
- Log the `removed %d dangling queues` message when at least a single queue has been removed
- Consistently use filepath.Join() for creating paths to persistent queues.
This is needed for Windows support (see https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/70 )

This commit changes background merge algorithm, so it becomes compatible with Windows file semantics.
The previous algorithm for background merge:
1. Merge source parts into a destination part inside tmp directory.
2. Create a file in txn directory with instructions on how to atomically
swap source parts with the destination part.
3. Perform instructions from the file.
4. Delete the file with instructions.
This algorithm guarantees that either source parts or destination part
is visible in the partition after unclean shutdown at any step above,
since the remaining files with instructions is replayed on the next restart,
after that the remaining contents of the tmp directory is deleted.
Unfortunately this algorithm doesn't work under Windows because
it disallows removing and moving files, which are in use.
So the new algorithm for background merge has been implemented:
1. Merge source parts into a destination part inside the partition directory itself.
E.g. now the partition directory may contain both complete and incomplete parts.
2. Atomically update the parts.json file with the new list of parts after the merge,
e.g. remove the source parts from the list and add the destination part to the list
before storing it to parts.json file.
3. Remove the source parts from disk when they are no longer used.
This algorithm guarantees that either source parts or destination part
is visible in the partition after unclean shutdown at any step above,
since incomplete partitions from step 1 or old source parts from step 3 are removed
on the next startup by inspecting parts.json file.
This algorithm should work under Windows, since it doesn't remove or move files in use.
This algorithm has also the following benefits:
- It should work better for NFS.
- It fits object storage semantics.
The new algorithm changes data storage format, so it is impossible to downgrade
to the previous versions of VictoriaMetrics after upgrading to this algorithm.

* vmalert: support concurrent reading from object storage
Config reading from GCS or S3 can be slow if object storage
contains a big number of files. Object storages are usually
fast for downloading and are slow for individual operations.
If there would be thousands of files to read, vmalert could
spend significant time for retrieving those because it is
done sequentially.
The change introduces ability to read configs from object
storage concurrently. By default, both GCS and S3 are now
read with 50 concurrent readers. This significantly reduces
the load time:
* loading 500 files with concurrency=1 takes 27s
* loading 500 files with concurrency=50 takes <1s
* vmalert: add note to Changelog
* vmalert: cleanup
* vmalert: use ticker properly

docs: clarifications between standalone/cluster ingestion endpoints
This is an attempt to make it a bit clearer to the user that the cluster version ingestion URLs are different from the standalone ones. I have also changed the order of the list items to make it a bit clearer and hopefully stop the user simply inferring that `/prometheus/api/v1` is only related to Prometheus data.
* vmalert: speed up state restore procedure on start
Alerts state restore procedure has been changed to become asynchronous.
It doesn't block groups start anymore which significantly improves vmalert's startup time.
Instead, state restore is called by each group in their goroutines after the first rules
evaluation.
While previously state restore attempt was made for all loaded alerting rules,
now it is called only for alerts which became active after the first evaluation.
This reduces the amount of API calls to the configured remote read URL.
This also means that `remoteRead.ignoreRestoreErrors` command-line flag becomes deprecated now
and will have no effect if configured.

This allows better controlling requests to backends and providing better error logging.

This is based on https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/3486
The docs/assets folder should be used only for assets specific to docs generation at https://docs.victoriametrics.com, e.g. css, js and images.
All the other assets related to specific docs should be placed in the same folder as the corresponding *.md file.
These assets should have the same name prefix as the corresponding doc file name. This simplifies tracking the lifetime of these assets.
For example, if the doc is removed, it is very easy to remove all assets associated with it with a simple `rm -rf docs/doc-name*` command.
This also simplifies generating correct urls for doc-specific assets from both https://docs.victoriametrics.com
and from https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/blob/master/docs/ - just refer to the asset name without any directory prefixes.

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,

- 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.

- Move `Dashboards` tab to the end, since it isn't used too much
- Document the feature at docs/CHANGELOG.md.
- Document the metrics explorer at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#metrics-explorer .
- Properly set `start` and `end` args for the selected time range
when performing the request, which returns metric names.
- Improve queries, so they return lower number of lines and labels.
This should improve metrics' exploration.
- Properly encode label filters and query args before passing them to VictoriaMetrics.
- Various cosmetic fixes.

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.
The lookbehind window continues to be extended when needed if it isn't set explicitly.
For example, in the case of rate(m).
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3483
The issue triggers after the indexdb rotation for time series, which stop receiving new samples.
This results in missing data for such time series in query responses.

This fixes handling of values bigger than 2GiB for the following command-line flags:
- -storage.minFreeDiskSpaceBytes
- -remoteWrite.maxDiskUsagePerURL
Blocked small merges may result into big number of small parts, which, in turn,
may result in increased CPU and memory usage during queries, since queries need to inspect
all the existing small parts.

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).
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3337
The recent change in modifying default value
of `datasource.queryStep` flag resulted in situation
where replay mode was always running queries with
step=`datasource.queryStep`. When it should always
use rule's evaluation interval.
The fix is related not to replay mode only, but
for all Range requests. Now step param is set
individually for each mode.

- 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.

- Remove trailing whitespace at the end of lines
- Remove redundant sentence stating that time series matching the given selector will be deleted.
It should be clear from the surrounding context.
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
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.
