It would be potentially confusing for someone if they uncommented a line
in the default configuration file, but forgot to also uncomment the
section header. The section headers don't cause any actual change to the
underlying configuration file so I've uncommented them to reduce
potential confusion.
`percentile()` is supposed to be a selector and return the time of the
point, but that only got changed when the input was a float. Updating
the integer processor to also return the time of the point rather than
the beginning of the interval.
NO-OP on platforms with unix path separator.

The `partial` tag has been added to the JSON response of a series and
the result so that a client knows when more of the series or result will
be sent in a future JSON chunk.
This helps interactive clients who don't want to wait for all of the
data to know if it is done processing the current series or the current
result. Previously, the client had to guess if the next chunk would
refer to the same result or a new result and it had to match the name
and tags of the two series to know if they were the same series. Now,
the client just needs to check the `partial` field included with the
response to know if it should expect more.
Fixed `max-row-limit` so it counts rows instead of results and it
truncates the response when the `max-row-limit` is reached.
When the `max-row-limit` was hit, the goroutine reading from the results
channel would stop reading from the channel, but it didn't signal to the
sender that it was no longer reading from the results. This caused the
sender to continue trying to send results even though nobody would ever
read it and this created a deadlock.
Include an `AbortCh` on the `ExecutionContext` that will signal when
results are no longer desired so the sender can abort instead of
deadlocking.

When a query would use a grouping with two different aggregates, it was
possible for one of the aggregates to return a value from a different
series key than the second aggregate. When these series keys didn't
match, the returned grouping would be screwed up because it sorted by
time before checking for name and tags.
This did not happen when the aggregates returned values for the same
series keys because then the iterators were aligned with each other.

The previous version was showing the microseconds unit when it was
outputting nanoseconds. Now we correctly identify which sub-second unit
to use (milliseconds, microseconds, or nanoseconds) and use the correct
unit while dividing the duration unit correctly to produce the correct
output.
Also updated to use the default duration string instead of our own
custom formatters. It turns out that the string method for
`time.Duration` does the correct thing as long as we truncate the value
first.
The admin console would dynamically discover the version from the
InfluxDB server, but for patch releases, it included the patch in the
link to the documentation and that wasn't a valid link.
Truncate the version so the documentation url is correct since we only
do documentation for `major.minor`.
Changes the default time boundaries for raw queries so raw queries will
range until the end of time. Aggregate queries continue to have their
default end time be `now()`.
The delete and drop statements apply to the measurement within a db.
The parser allowed a db or rp to be specified and these values were
silently ignored. This could cause data loss as someone would think
they are only deleting the series within a rp, but they are actually
deleting all their data.
Instead, we return a parse error if a db or rp is specified in the
delete or drop statements. Ideally, we'd be able to respect the
db and rp, but that requires significant work in the query engine
and tsdb store to make that work.
Fixes#7053
The `first()` and `last()` functions response rate would increase linear
to the number of points even though it seems like it shouldn't. This
optimization greatly reduces the amount of time to return a response
when no `GROUP BY time(...)` clause is present in a query.
This commit adds support for replacing regexes with non-regex conditions
when possible. Currently the following regexes are supported:
- host =~ /^foo$/ will be converted into host = 'foo'
- host !~ /^foo$/ will be converted into host != 'foo'
Note: if the regex expression contains character classes, grouping,
repetition or similar, it may not be rewritten.
For example, the condition: name =~ /^foo|bar$/ will not be rewritten.
Support for this may arrive in the future.
Regexes that can be converted into simpler expression will be able to
take advantage of the tsdb index, making them significantly faster.
Previously, we would return a full tag set for every shard and the tag
set would include all series that existed in the database index
including series that didn't physically exist within that shard. This
led to the tag sets returned being incredibly huge when we had high
cardinality but sparse data. Since the data was sparse, it was
unexpected that it would cause such a large strain on the system by most
people.
Now we filter out the series ids that are not assigned to the current
shard when computing a tag set for that shard. This lowers the memory
usage for high cardinality sparse data drastically and allows queries on
those to complete successfully.
This does not resolve issues for high cardinality data in every shard
that is also spread out over a long series of time. That situation isn't
nearly as common as the above situation though.
If a point was written that was earlier than any existing shards
it would be written to the earliest existing shard that had an
end time later than the point's time.
This ensures that when a point is written and there are no shards that
the point will fit into exactly, a new shard group will be created.
Unify logic around compaction execution to a single place.
Also report on the error stats that we track. Previously they were not
emitted in the stats output.
If a delete takes a long time to process while writes to the
shard are occuring, it was possible for the cache to fill up
and writes to be rejected. This occurred because we disabled
all compactions while writing tombstone file to prevent deleted
data from re-appearing after a compaction completed.
Instead, we only disable the level compactions and allow snapshot
compactions to continue. Snapshots already handle deleted data
with the cache and wal.
Fixes#7161
If you pipe in a file to the `influx` CLI, it will not try to open the
interactive line reader, but instead just send the contents of the
entire file to the server.
Instead of assigning a boolean value of true to the filter expressions
when there was no meaningful expression, this drops a boolean expression
of true from the filter expressions so we don't have to perform a map
assignment. This allows us to reduce allocations and assignments when a
`WHERE` clause only contains tag comparisons and no field comparisons.
The functionality works the same as wildcards, but this time, you can
specify a regular expression.
One limitation is that you can't specify whether you only want to select
fields or tags. Since the regex can be changed to suit the person's
needs, I don't currently think this is an issue.
Strings would always return an empty string and stddev is meaningless
when it comes to strings. This removes that functionality so strings
don't automatically get picked up when using a wildcard.
This changes the behavior of the max-series-per-database and
max-values-per-tag limits to drop points that would exceed the limits
and allow the remaining points to be written. Previously, the whole
batch would fail and return and 500 error to the client.
This now will write the allow points and return a `partial write`
error indicating some of the points were dropped, how many were
dropped and one of the problem measureent and tags.
On my machine with about 20 shards, it would take 10+ seconds to shut
down InfluxDB with SIGINT. After this change, it shuts down in nearly
instantly.
(*tsdb.Store).Close was shutting down each of its shards sequentially.
Each shard's engine would signal to its compaction goroutines to quit,
and because each compaction goroutine has a hardcoded 1-second sleep in
between checks, waiting for the goroutines would often block for up to a
second.
This change closes all of the TSDB store's shards in parallel. This
means it's possible that multiple close values could error at once, but
we're still only returning the first error, consistent with previous
behavior. That being said, the return value of (*tsdb.Store).Close is
ignored in (*cmd/influxd/run.Server).Close anyway.
The `cumulative_sum()` function can be used to sum each new point and
output the current total. For the following points:
cpu value=2 0
cpu value=4 10
cpu value=6 20
This would output the following points:
> SELECT cumulative_sum(value) FROM cpu
time value
---- -----
0 2
10 6
20 12
As can be seen, each new point adds to the sum of the previous point and
outputs the value with the same timestamp.
The function can also be used with an aggregate like `derivative()`.
> SELECT cumulative_sum(mean(value) FROM cpu WHERE time >= now() - 10m GROUP BY time(1m)

The subscriber write goroutine would drop points if the write load
was higher than it could process. This could happen with a just
a few writers to the server.
Instead, process the channel with multiple writers to avoid dropping
writes so easily. This also adds some config options to control how
large the channel buffer is as well as how many goroutines are started.
Fixes#7330
Integer blocks that were run length encoded could produce the wrong
value when read back out because the deltas were not zig zag decoded
before scaling the final value. If the deltas were negative, as would
be seen in a counter that decrements by a constant value, the results
would be random with som negative and positive values.

The TagSets function was creating a lot of intermediate maps and
slices to calculate the sorted tag sets. It first creates a map
to group tag sets with their series, it then created an equally
sized slice of the tag keys and sorted then. Finally, it created
a new slice and added the tag sets in the original map by the ordering
of the sorted keys. It was also recreating the tags map multiple time
creating extra garbage in the loop.
This simplifies the code to create one map for grouping and than adding
the distinct sets to a slice which is then sorted. It also fixes the
multple tag maps getting created.
Manual use of system queries could result in a user using the query
incorrect. Rather than check to make sure the query was used correctly,
we're just going to prevent users from using those sources so they can't
use them incorrectly.
When deleting a shard, the shard is locked and then removed from the
index. Removal from the index can be slow if there are a lot of
series. During this time, the shard is still expected to exist by
the meta store and tsdb store so stats collections, queries and writes
could all be run on this shard while it's locked. This can cause everything
to lock up until the unindexing completes and the shard can be unlocked.

The derivative() call would panic if it received two points at the same
time because it tried to divide by zero. The derivative call now skips
past these points. To avoid skipping past these points, use `GROUP BY *`
so that each series is kept separated into their own series.
The difference() call has also been modified to skip past these points.
Even though difference doesn't divide by the time, difference is
supposed to perform the same as derivative, but without dividing by the
time.
Return an error when we encounter the same option twice in ALTER
RETENTION POLICY and remove the `maxNumOptions` number from the parsing
loop. The `maxNumOptions` number would need to be modified if another
option was added to the parsing loop and it didn't correctly prevent
duplicate options from being reported as an error anyway.
Normalize all of the SHOW commands so they allow both using ON to
specify the database and using the default database. Some commands would
require one and some would require the other and it was confusing when
using the query language.
Affected commands:
* SHOW RETENTION POLICIES
* SHOW MEASUREMENTS
* SHOW SERIES
* SHOW TAG KEYS
* SHOW TAG VALUES
* SHOW FIELD KEYS
There were three different outputs that could be output with columns
that were rather strange depending on if there was a name and if there
were tags with the response.
Normalized output now has the dashes always under the column names and
no dashes anywhere else for consistency.

When we refactored expvar, the cmdline and memstats sections were not
readded to the output. This adds it back if they can be found inside of
`expvar`.
It also stops trying to sort the output of the statistics so they get
returned faster. JSON doesn't need them to be sorted and it causes
enough latency problems that sorting them hurts performance.
When attempting to reduce the WHERE clause, the time literals had not
been converted from string literals yet. This adds the functionality to
have it handle the same time math when the time literal is still a
string literal.
The full compaction planner could return a plan that only included
one generation. If this happened, a full compaction would run on that
generation producing just one generation again. The planner would then
repeat the plan.
This could happen if there were two generations that were both over
the max TSM file size and the second one happened to be in level 3 or
lower.
When this situation occurs, one cpu is pegged running a full compaction
continuously and the disks become very busy basically rewriting the
same files over and over again. This can eventually cause disk and CPU
saturation if it occurs with more than one shard.
Fixes#7074
The dollar sign would sometimes be accepted as whitespace if it was
immediately followed by a reserved keyword or an invalid character. It
now reads these properly as a bound parameter rather than ignoring the
dollar sign.
The behavior for querying tag values with an empty string was originally
fixed in #6283, but it also added a performance problem when the
cardinality of the tag was high. Since a call to `Union()` or `Reject()`
would happen for every series key and it would be called N times for N
cardinality, the comparisons against a blank string were unnecessarily
slow with large memory allocations.
This optimizes these queries so it doesn't use those methods anymore.
Those methods are still useful and used when combining AND and OR
clauses, but they aren't useful when finding the series ids for a single
clause. These methods were unnecessary anyway because the series ids for
the tags were unique anyway and didn't have to be merged as a set.
Instead of having the parser set the defaults, the command will set the
defaults so that the constants for that are actually used. This way we
can also identify which things the user provided and which ones we are
filling with default values.
This allows the meta client to be able to make smarter decisions when
determining if the user requested a conflict or if the requested
capabilities match with what is currently available. If you just say
`CREATE DATABASE WITH NAME myrp`, the user doesn't really care what the
duration of the retention policy is and just wants to use the default.
Now, we can use that information to determine if an existing retention
policy would conflict with what the user requested rather than returning
an error if a default value ever gets changed since the meta client
command can communicate intent more easily.
We added `SHARD DURATION` as an extra option, but forgot to increase the
maximum number of allowable options from 3 to 4. So if 4 options were
used, the last one was ignored. This was commonly `DEFAULT`, but it
could have been any of the options.
Negative timestamps are now supported. We also now refuse two
nanoseconds that are at the edge of the minimum time window. One of the
nanoseconds we do not accept is because we need MinInt64 to be used for
some internal comparisons in the TSM engine and it was causing an
underflow when we subtracted one from the minimum time. The second is so
we can have one minimum time that signifies the default minimum that
nobody can write to (so we can implicitly rewrite the timestamp on
aggregate queries) but still use the explicit timestamp if it is given
to us by the user. We aren't able to tell the difference between if the
user provided it or if it was implicit without those values being
different.
If the default minimum time is used with an aggregate query, we rewrite
the time to be the epoch for backwards compatibility since we believe
that's more important than supporting that extra nanosecond.
CSV doesn't offer a way to separate different sheets from each other and
it doesn't really have a standard format. We separate sheets with a
newline so they can be imported into something like Excel or LibreOffice
more easily.
The number of columns for each sheet is inferred from the first returned
row in each statement since they should all be the same.
It is now possible to use a mixed duration unit like `1h30m`. The
duration units can be in whatever order as long as they are connected to
each other.
There is a change to the scanner. A token such as `10x` will be scanned
as a duration literal, but will then fail to parse as an invalid
duration. This should not be a breaking change as there is no situation
where `10m10` was a valid order of tokens for the parser.
Fixes#3634.
The query executor would only store the number of active queries and the
query duration so it was impossible to determine how many queries were
actually executed during that timeframe because quick queries would be
gone before the call to gather statistics was made.
This adds two new statistics so track when queries start and when
queries finish and doesn't decrement the counter so the number of
executed queries can be obtained using `derivative()` and
`difference()`.
Instead of having the parser set the defaults, the command will set the
defaults so that the constants for that are actually used. This way we
can also identify which things the user provided and which ones we are
filling with default values.
This allows the meta client to be able to make smarter decisions when
determining if the user requested a conflict or if the requested
capabilities match with what is currently available. If you just say
`CREATE DATABASE WITH NAME myrp`, the user doesn't really care what the
duration of the retention policy is and just wants to use the default.
Now, we can use that information to determine if an existing retention
policy would conflict with what the user requested rather than returning
an error if a default value ever gets changed since the meta client
command can communicate intent more easily.
This commit fixes the `MaxSelectSeriesN` limit which was broken by
the implementation of lazy iterators. The setting previously limited
the total number of series but the new implementation limits the
concurrent number of series being processed.
This commit limits queries to only process one shard at a time.
However, within a shard, multiple series can still be processed in
parallel. Shard iterators are lazily instantiated during query
execution to limit the amount of memory a given query uses.
The previous parseFill would try to parse an expression and only unscan
one token when it failed. This caused it to not put back the correct
number of tokens with some expression.
Now it has been modified to check for the fill ident ahead of time and
then use ParseExpr() to parse the call. If the expression fails to parse
into a call, it will send an error instead of trying to continue with an
invalid parser state.
Fixes#6543.
Normally, compactions do not conflict on the files they are compacting.
If the full cold threshold is set very low, it can cause conflicts where
two compactions compact the same files. The full compaction was the
only place this could happen as it's planning is greedy.
To make this safer for concurrent execution, the compaction tracks which
files are current being compacted and prevents any new compactions from
starting if the file set overlaps.
Fixes#6595
If a query was running against a file being compacted, we close the file
and the query would end wherever it had read up to. This could result
in queries that randomly lost data, but running them again showed the
full results.
We now use a reference counting approach and move the in-use files out
of the way in the filestore and allow the queries to complete against
the old tsm files. The new files are installed and new queries will
use them.
Fixes#5501
There was a race where the same series would get added to the in-memory
index for a measurement more than once. This would result in the same
series being returned more than once during queries causing duplicate
results. The issue was that we check for the series under the read
lock, but did not check again under the write lock where there was
a small window where the series could be added by another goroutine.
We now check for the series under the write lock.

According to the HTTP standard, a lack of authentication credentials or
incorrect authentication credentials should send back a 401
(Unauthorized) with a `WWW-Authenticate` header with a challenge that
can be used to authenticate. This is because a 401 status should be sent
when an authentication attempt can be retried by the browser.
The 403 (Forbidden) status code should be sent when authentication
succeeded, but the user does not have the necessary authorization.
Previously, the server would always send a 401 status code.

If there were blocks in later TSM files that were for overwritten

One effect of this is that graphs in graphana would render with
the line going all over the place in spots.
This might also cause duplicate data to be returned.

Previously, a non-admin could not call "use" in the influx cli since the
`SHOW DATABASES` command requires admin permissions to run. The correct
solution to this is likely to allow non-admins to call `SHOW DATABASES`,
but only see the databases they should be capable of seeing.
Since we don't have this kind of fine-grained authorization yet and
plans for it are still in the works, we do need someway to not
arbitrarily cripple non-admins attempting to use the cli program. This
is a temporary solution that will ignore any authorization errors from
`SHOW DATABASES` if authorization has been set. A warning message will
be printed and the database will be switched. This should be enough to
ensure that there is some warning that you may not have switched to a
valid database while not crippling non-admin users.
A temporary solution for #6397.
Normalize the output for the various help options so they all follow the

Removing some of the unused config options from the configuration file

Removes the old implementation of `dumptsm`. It was for an older version
of the tsm1 files that is no longer used and now just panics when used
on a tsm1 file. dumptsmdev has been renamed to `dumptsm`, but the old
`dumptsmdev` command still works for compatibility.
Updated `influx_inspect` to use the `FieldDimensions` method instead
(more reliable anyway). The `influx_tsm` program used its own vendored
copy of `FieldCodec` so it is not affected by this change. `FieldCodec`
was only used for the `b1` and `bz1` engines which were removed in 0.12,
but the code that created the field codec was never removed. This
limited the maximum number of fields to 255 even though that restriction
was removed with the `tsm1` engine.
Fixes#6869.
A copy/paste error had nil cursors destined for a condition cursor get
set to the auxiliary cursor instead. When the number of conditions
exceeded the number of auxiliary fields, this would result in a stack
trace in some situations. When the number of conditions was less than or
equal to the number of auxiliary fields, it means that an auxiliary
cursor may have been overwritten with a nil cursor accidentally and a
leak might have happened since it was never closed.
Fixes#6859.

The highest time represented by a nanosecond needs to be used for an
exclusive range, so the maximum time needs to be one less than the
possible maximum number of nanoseconds representable by an int64 so that
we don't lose a point at that one time.
Previously worked in the open source version because the timestamp used
for finding a shard would be truncated by the retention policy so the
lookup time didn't run into this edge case because it didn't rest on the
truncation boundary. Since that point didn't really belong in that shard
group and was placed there by mistake, it's best to fix this bug since
the timestamp used to create the shard group should be capable of
retrieving it.
changes the httpd log lines from this:

to this:

So it changes a few things:
1. Remove the logger timestamp at the beginning which isn't very relevant anyways
2. adds quotes around "METHOD URI PROTOCOL", because this is part of the
common log format.
3. adds quotes around "AGENT" and "REFERRER" because this is part of the
"combined" log format.
4. Puts the response time in integer microseconds, because this is
consistent with apache's %D config mod option.
Compared with CLF, our logs now look like this:
[httpd] %{COMMON_LOG_FORMAT} "<agent>" "<referrer>" <request_uuid> <response_time_µs>
