This change adds a prometheus exporter for our existing snowflake broker
metrics. Current values for the metrics can be fetched by sending a GET
request to /prometheus.
We currently don't sort the snowflake-ips metrics:
snowflake-ips CA=1,DE=1,AR=1,NL=1,FR=1,GB=2,US=4,CH=1
To facilitate eyeballing our metrics, this patch sorts snowflake-ips by
value. If the value is identical, we sort by string, i.e.:
snowflake-ips US=4,GB=2,AR=1,CA=1,CH=1,DE=1,FR=1,NL=1
This patch fixes tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/snowflake#40011
As we now partition proxies by NAT type, our stats are more useful if they
capture how many proxies of each type we have, and information on
whether we have enough proxies of the right NAT type for our clients.
This change adds proxy counts by NAT type and binned counts of denied clients by NAT type.
Added another lock to the metrics struct to synchronize accesses to the
broker stats. There's a possible race condition if stats are updated at
the same time they are being logged.
Many of our log messages were being used to generate metrics, but are
now being aggregated and logged to a separate metrics log file and so we
don't need them in the regular logs anymore.
This addresses the goal of ticket #30830, to remove unecessary messages
and keep broker logs for debugging purposes.
Added three new metrics:
- proxyIdleCount counts the number of times a proxy polls and receives
no snowflakes
- clientDeniedCount counts the number of times a client requested a
snowflake but none were available
- clientProxyMatchCount counts the number of times a client successfully
received a snowflake
Previously the metrics log file was hardcoded and the broker wasn't
behaving properly if it was unable to open the file for logging.
Added a commandline option to specify the logfile that defaults to
Stdout.
Fixed up some documentation and log output formatting
