📝 Walkthrough

This update adds native OTLP metadata handling across decoding, MessagePack serialization, encoding, and metric concatenation. It also changes histogram bucket conversions, expands compatibility and pipeline tests, adds a CAT benchmark mode, and updates project and build configuration.

Changes: Metric metadata, codecs, and concatenation

Layer / File(s) Summary
OTLP metadata model and persistence
lib/cmetrics/include/cmetrics/cmt_map.h, lib/cmetrics/include/cmetrics/cmt_metric.h, lib/cmetrics/include/cmetrics/cmt_otlp_metadata.h, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_otlp_metadata.c, lib/cmetrics/src/CMakeLists.txt, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_map.c
Metric maps and samples gain owned OTLP metadata. New helpers clone, pack, restore, and match metadata, including histogram normalization.
MessagePack metadata and compatibility
lib/cmetrics/include/cmetrics/cmt_decode_msgpack.h, lib/cmetrics/include/cmetrics/cmt_variant_utils.h, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_decode_msgpack.c, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_encode_msgpack.c, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_mpack_utils.c, lib/cmetrics/tests/*
MessagePack encoding and decoding support OTLP metadata and counter reset state. Tests cover released fixtures, histogram bucket formats, malformed input, and metadata sidecars.
OTLP decoding and encoding
lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_decode_opentelemetry.c, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_encode_opentelemetry.c, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_encode_text.c, lib/cmetrics/tests/opentelemetry.c, lib/cmetrics/tests/otlp_pipeline.c, lib/cmetrics/tests/msgpack_temporality.c
OTLP decoding stores typed point metadata and cumulative histogram buckets. Encoding reads native metadata, emits representable typed attributes, and converts cumulative buckets back to individual counts.
Metric concatenation and benchmark
lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_cat.c, lib/cmetrics/src/cmt_map.c, lib/cmetrics/tests/cat.c, lib/cmetrics/benchmarks/benchmark.c, lib/cmetrics/benchmarks/README.md
Concatenation preserves OTLP point metadata and distinct timestamped points, and checks label schemas, units, and aggregation settings. The metric index and CAT benchmark are updated, with added tests.

Build and release updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Version and build workflows
lib/cmetrics/CMakeLists.txt, lib/cmetrics/.github/workflows/build.yaml, lib/cmetrics/.github/workflows/packages.yaml, lib/cmetrics/scripts/win_build.bat
The project version changes to 2.3.1. Windows build and test commands and ARM64 action versions are updated.

Suggested labels: docs-required

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 3d9a7

The cmetrics 2.3.1 upgrade can make Fluent Bit export wrong histogram bucket counts for OTLP input unless the decoder accumulates counts. Callers that ignore cmt_cat() failures may keep partial merges, and the labels processor can leak metadata. Resolve the histogram bucket handling before merging; the other items are smaller follow-ups.

Review downstream ABI users and preserve metadata ownership.

otlp_metadata changes the size of struct cmt_metric. Since struct cmt_map embeds it, the offsets of all later fields also change. Review consumers that use older cmetrics headers before accepting this public layout change.

The processor also drops metadata during static-metric conversion. It zeroes map->metric without transferring or destroying otlp_metadata, and its custom metric destructor frees metrics without destroying that field.

Update metrics_map_convert_static_metric to transfer map->metric.otlp_metadata
to the converted metric before clearing the source, preserving single ownership.
Update map_metric_destroy to destroy metric->otlp_metadata, and ensure the
public struct cmt_metric layout change remains safe for downstream ABI users
with older headers.

Check the cmt_cat() return value at the ignored call sites.

cmt_cat() can return -1 after it has already merged some families. append_context() returns at the first failing family and does not undo earlier merges, so the destination can keep a partial merge.

The OTLP decoder handles this case. It destroys merged_context and returns an error, so the partial state does not escape. Two call sites ignore the result:

  • plugins/in_node_exporter_metrics/ne_textfile_linux.c:163 merges into the long-lived ctx->cmt. A failed merge can leave partial families there for later use. Check the return value and report the failure. Destroying ctx->cmt is not an option, so the failure path needs an explicit decision.
Suggested change at the textfile call site
-            cmt_cat(ctx->cmt, cmt);
+            if (cmt_cat(ctx->cmt, cmt) != 0) {
+                flb_plg_error(ctx->ins, "could not merge textfile metrics");
+            }
  • plugins/processor_metrics_selector/selector.c:326 and :363 also ignore the result. A partial merge into out_cmt can happen only if out_cmt already holds samples for a family that conflicts with filtered. Check the return value and handle the failure. The exact handling depends on the ownership and lifecycle of out_cmt.

Check and handle the return value from cmt_cat() at the textfile metrics and
metrics selector call sites. Report merge failure for the long-lived ctx->cmt
without destroying it, and ensure a failed merge into out_cmt cannot expose
partial output, following that object’s ownership and lifecycle.

Convert OTLP histogram bucket counts to cumulative counts before storing them.

cmt_histogram_set_default() stores each input value directly in hist_buckets, and cmetrics stores histogram buckets cumulatively. The Fluent Bit OpenTelemetry decoder passes OTLP bucketCounts directly to this function. For input [5, 1, 3], the stored values remain [5, 1, 3], but the changed encoder emits [5, 0, 2].

Accumulate the decoded OTLP counts before calling cmt_histogram_set_default(). Reject cumulative overflow, as the cmetrics OTLP decoder does. Keep the Prometheus path unchanged because its bucket values are already cumulative.
