### Describe Your Changes
doing similar changes for both vmagent and vminsert (like one in
https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/7399) ends up
with almost same implementations for each of packages instead of having
this shared code in one place. one of the reasons is the same Timeseries
and Labels structure from different prompb and prompbmarshal packages.
My proposal is to use structures from prompb package only to
marshal/unmarshal sent/received data, but for internal transformations
use only structures from prompbmarshal package
Another example, where it already can help to simplify code is streaming
aggregation pipeline for vmsingle (now it first marshals
prompb.Timeseries to storage.MetricRow and then if streaming aggregation
or deduplication is enabled it unmarshals all the series back but to
prompbmarshal.Timeseries)
### Checklist
The following checks are **mandatory**:
- [ ] My change adheres [VictoriaMetrics contributing
guidelines](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/contributing/).
Previously it incorrectly applied xFilesFactor, if it's value equal to 0.
This commit properly handles this case and returns result according to
the graphite documentation:
`xFilesFactor follows the same semantics as in Whisper storage schemas. Setting it to 0 (the default) means that only a single value in the series needs to be non-null for it to be considered non-empty, setting it to 1 means that all values in the series must be non-null. A setting of 0.5 means that at least half the values in the series must be non-null.`

'any' type is supported starting from Go1.18. Let's consistently use it
instead of 'interface{}' type across the code base, since `any` is easier to read than 'interface{}'.
- Fix docs for new functions at app/vmselect/graphite/functions.json
- Properly drain series lists on errors in aggregateSeriesListsGeneric() and aggregateSeriesList()
- Add links to docs for the added functions at docs/CHANGELOG.md
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5809
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
This is a follow-up for 1f28b46ae9
at arm based CPUs only 9 digits after comma matches for tests.
Especially at holtWinters functions. Since it only takes effect at tests
it makes no sense for changing float prescision at actual functions
Previously SearchMetricNames was returning unmarshaled metric names.
This wasn't great for vmstorage, which should spend additional CPU time
for marshaling the metric names before sending them to vmselect.
While at it, remove possible duplicate metric names, which could occur when
multiple samples for new time series are ingested via concurrent requests.
Also sort the metric names before returning them to the client.
This simplifies debugging of the returned metric names across repeated requests to /api/v1/series
querytracer has been added to the following storage.Storage methods:
- RegisterMetricNames
- DeleteMetrics
- SearchTagValueSuffixes
- SearchGraphitePaths
