This Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector release includes changes from the opentelemetry-collector v0.91.0 and the opentelemetry-collector-contrib v0.91.0 releases where appropriate.

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • (Splunk) Node.js Auto Instrumentation:
    • The NODE_OPTIONS environment variable in the default config file has been updated to load the Node.js SDK from an absolute path (/usr/lib/splunk-instrumentation/splunk-otel-js/node_modules/@splunk/otel/instrument).
    • The Linux installer script now installs the Node.js SDK to /usr/lib/splunk-instrumentation/splunk-otel-js instead of globally.
    • The --npm-command Linux installer script option is no longer supported. To specify a custom path to npm, use the --npm-path <path> option.
  • (Splunk) translatesfx: Remove translatesfx (#4028)
  • (Splunk) collectd/elasticsearch: Remove collectd/elasticsearch monitor (#3997)

🚩 Deprecations 🚩

  • (Splunk) collectd/cpu: Deprecate collectd/cpu explicitly. Please migrate to the cpu monitor (#4036)

💡 Enhancements 💡

  • (Contrib) spanmetricsconnector: Add exemplars to sum metric (#27451)
  • (Contrib) jaegerreceiver: mark featuregates to replace Thrift-gen with Proto-gen types for sampling strategies as stable (#27636)
    The following featuregate is stable:
    receiver.jaegerreceiver.replaceThriftWithProto
  • (Contrib) kafkareceiver: Add the ability to consume logs from Azure Diagnostic Settings streamed through Event Hubs using the Kafka API. (#18210)
  • (Contrib) resourcedetectionprocessor: Add detection of host.ip to system detector. (#24450)
  • (Contrib) resourcedetectionprocessor: Add detection of host.mac to system detector. (#29587)
  • (Contrib) pkg/ottl: Add silent ErrorMode to allow disabling logging of errors that are ignored. (#29710)
  • (Contrib) postgresqlreceiver: Add config property for excluding specific databases from scraping (#29605)
  • (Contrib) redisreceiver: Upgrade the redis library dependency to resolve security vulns in v7 (#29600)
  • (Contrib) signalfxexporter: Enable HTTP/2 health check by default (#29716)
  • (Contrib) splunkhecexporter: Enable HTTP/2 health check by default (#29717)
  • (Contrib) statsdreceiver: Add support for 'simple' tags that do not have a defined value, to accommodate DogStatsD metrics that may utilize these. (#29012)
    This functionality is gated behind a new enable_simple_tags config boolean, as it is not part of the StatsD spec.
  • (Core) service: add resource attributes as labels to otel metrics to ensures backwards compatibility with OpenCensus metrics. (#9029)
  • (Core) config/confighttp: Exposes http/2 transport settings to enable health check and workaround golang http/2 issue golang/go#59690 (#9022)

🧰 Bug fixes 🧰

  • (Splunk) migratecheckpoint: Migrating offsets from SCK to SCK-Otel doesn't work. This is because of incorrect keys we use to populate the boltdb cache. (#3879)
  • (Contrib) connector/spanmetrics: Fix memory leak when the cumulative temporality is used. (#27654)
  • (Contrib) splunkhecexporter: Do not send null event field values in HEC events. Replace null values with an empty string. (#29551)
  • (Contrib) k8sobjectsreceiver: fix k8sobjects receiver fails when some unrelated Kubernetes API is down (#29706)
  • (Contrib) resourcedetectionprocessor: Change type of host.cpu.model.id and host.cpu.model.family from int to string. (#29025)
    Disable the processor.resourcedetection.hostCPUModelAndFamilyAsString feature gate to get the old behavior.
  • (Contrib) filelogreceiver: Fix problem where checkpoints could be lost when collector is shutdown abruptly (#29609, #29491)
  • (Contrib) pkg/stanza: Allow key_value_parser to parse values that contain the delimiter string. (#29629
  • (Core) exporterhelper: fix missed metric aggregations (#9048)
    This ensures that context cancellation in the exporter doesn't interfere with metric aggregation. The OTel
    SDK currently returns if there's an error in the context used in Add. This means that if there's a
    cancelled context in an export, the metrics are now recorded.

This Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector release includes changes from the opentelemetry-collector v0.90.1 and the opentelemetry-collector-contrib v0.90.0 releases where appropriate.

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • (Core) service: To remain backwards compatible w/ the metrics generated today, otel generated metrics will be generated without the _total suffix (#7454)
  • (Core) service: use WithNamespace instead of WrapRegistererWithPrefix (#8988)
    Using this functionality in the otel prom exporter fixes a bug where the
    target_info was prefixed as otelcol_target_info previously.

🚩 Deprecations 🚩

  • (Splunk) Deprecate collectd/marathon (#3992)
  • (Splunk) Add deprecation notice to collectd/etcd (use etcd instead) (#3990)
  • (Splunk) Mark translatesfx as deprecated (#3984)

💡 Enhancements 💡

  • (Splunk) mysqlreceiver: Add mysqlreceiver to the Splunk distribution (#3989)
  • (Core) exporter/debug: Change default verbosity from normal to basic (#8844)
    This change has currently no effect, as basic and normal verbosity share the same behavior. This might change in the future though, with the normal verbosity being more verbose than it currently is (see open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector#7806). This is why we are changing the default to basic, which is expected to stay at the current level of verbosity (one line per batch).
  • (Core) exporterhelper: Fix shutdown logic in persistent queue to not require consumers to be closed first (#8899)
  • (Core) confighttp: Support proxy configuration field in all exporters that support confighttp (#5761)
  • (Contrib) resourcedetectionprocessor: Add k8s cluster name detection when running in EKS (#26794)
  • (Contrib) pkg/ottl: Add new IsDouble function to facilitate type checking. (#27895)
  • (Contrib) mysqlreceiver: expose tls in mysqlreceiver (#29269)
    If tls is not set, the default is to disable TLS connections.
  • (Contrib) processor/transform: Convert between sum and gauge in metric context when alpha feature gate processor.transform.ConvertBetweenSumAndGaugeMetricContext enabled (#20773)
  • (Contrib) receiver/mongodbatlasreceiver: adds project config to mongodbatlas metrics to filter by project name and clusters. (#28865)
  • (Contrib) pkg/stanza: Add "namedpipe" operator. (#27234)
  • (Contrib) pkg/resourcetotelemetry: Do not clone data in pkg/resourcetotelemetry by default (#29327)
    The resulting consumer will be marked as MutatesData instead
  • (Contrib) pkg/stanza: Improve performance by not calling decode when nop encoding is defined (#28899)
  • (Contrib) receivercreator: Added support for discovery of endpoints based on K8s services (#29022)
    By discovering endpoints based on K8s services, a dynamic probing of K8s service leveraging for example the httpcheckreceiver get enabled
  • (Contrib) signalfxexporter: change default timeout to 10 seconds (#29436)
  • (Contrib) hostmetricsreceiver: Add optional Linux-only metric system.linux.memory.available (#7417)
    This is an alternative to system.memory.usage metric with state=free.
    Linux starting from 3.14 exports "available" memory. It takes "free" memory as a baseline, and then factors in kernel-specific values.
    This is supposed to be more accurate than just "free" memory.
    For reference, see the calculations here.
    See also MemAvailable in /proc/meminfo.

🧰 Bug fixes 🧰

  • (Splunk) cmd/otelcol: Fix the code detecting if the collector is running as a service on Windows. The fix should make
    setting the NO_WINDOWS_SERVICE environment variable unnecessary. (#4002)
  • (Core) exporterhelper: Fix invalid write index updates in the persistent queue (#8115)
  • (Contrib) filelogreceiver: Fix issue where files were unnecessarily kept open on Windows (#29149)
  • (Contrib) mongodbreceiver: add receiver.mongodb.removeDatabaseAttr Alpha feature gate to remove duplicate database name attribute (#24972)
  • (Contrib) pkg/stanza: Fix panic during stop for udp async mode only. (#29120)

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • (Contrib) pkg/stanza/receiver/windowseventlog: Improve parsing of Windows Event XML by handling anonymous Data elements. (#21491)
    This improves the contents of Windows log events for which the publisher manifest is unavailable. Previously, anonymous Data elements were ignored. This is a breaking change for users who were relying on the previous data format.
  • (Contrib) processor/k8sattributes: Graduate "k8sattr.rfc3339" feature gate to Beta. (#28817)
    Time format of k8s.pod.start_time attribute value migrated from RFC3339:
    Before: 2023-07-10 12:34:39.740638 -0700 PDT m=+0.020184946
    After: 2023-07-10T12:39:53.112485-07:00
    The feature gate can be temporary reverted back by adding --feature-gate=-k8sattr.rfc3339 to the command line.
  • (Contrib) receiver/filelogreceiver: Change "Started watching file" log behavior (#28491)
    Previously, every unique file path which was found by the receiver would be remembered indefinitely.
    This list was kept independently of the uniqueness / checkpointing mechanism (which does not rely on the file path).
    The purpose of this list was to allow us to emit a log whenever a path was seen for the first time.
    This removes the separate list and relies instead on the same mechanism as checkpointing. Now, a similar log is emitted
    any time a file is found which is not currently checkpointed. Because the checkpointing mechanism does not maintain history
    indefinitely, it is now possible that a log will be emitted for the same file path. This will happen when no file exists at
    the path for a period of time.

🚩 Deprecations 🚩

  • (Contrib) postgresqlreceiver: Deprecation of postgresql replication lag metrics postgresql.wal.lag in favor of more precise 'postgresql.wal.delay' (#26714)

    This feature gate will graduate to beta in the next release.
  • (Contrib) processor/tailsampling: Optimize performance of tailsamplingprocessor (#27889)
  • (Contrib) redisreceiver: include server.address and server.port resource attributes (#22044)

This Splunk OpenTelemetry Collector release includes changes from the opentelemetry-collector v0.87.0 and the opentelemetry-collector-contrib v0.87.0 releases where appropriate.

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • (Splunk) Auto Instrumentation for Linux (#3791):
    • The /usr/lib/splunk-instrumentation/instrumentation.conf config file is no longer
      supported, and is replaced by /etc/splunk/zeroconfig/java.conf. If the splunk-otel-auto-instrumentation deb/rpm
      package is manually upgraded, the options within /usr/lib/splunk-instrumentation/instrumentation.conf will need to
      be manually migrated to their corresponding environment variables within /etc/splunk/zeroconfig/java.conf.
    • Manual installation of the splunk-otel-auto-instrumentation deb/rpm package no longer automatically adds
      /usr/lib/splunk-instrumentation/libsplunk.so to /etc/ld.so.preload.
    • Manual upgrade of the splunk-otel-auto-instrumentation deb/rpm package will automatically remove
      /usr/lib/splunk-instrumentation/libsplunk.so from /etc/ld.so.preload.
    • The splunk.linux-autoinstr.executions metric is no longer generated by libsplunk.so.
    • See Splunk OpenTelemetry Zero Configuration Auto Instrumentation for Linux
      for manual installation/configuration details.
    • For users of the Ansible, Chef, Puppet, or Salt modules for Auto Instrumentation, it is recommended to update the following option in your configuration for version 0.86.0 or older until these modules are updated to manage these changes:
      • Ansible: splunk_otel_auto_instrumentation_version
      • Chef: auto_instrumentation_version
      • Puppet: auto_instrumentation_version
      • Salt: auto_instrumentation_version
  • (Contrib) kubeletstatsreceiver: Fixes a bug where the "insecure_skip_verify" config was not being honored when "auth_type" is "serviceAccount" in kubelet client. (#26319)
    • Before the fix, the kubelet client was not verifying kubelet's certificate. The default value of the config is false,
      so with the fix the client will start verifying tls cert unless the config is explicitly set to true.
  • (Contrib) tailsamplingprocessor: Improve counting for the count_traces_sampled metric (#25882)
  • (Contrib) extension/filestorage: Replace path-unsafe characters in component names (#3148)
  • (Core) service/telemetry exporter/exporterhelper: Enable sampling logging by default and apply it to all components. (#8134)
    • The sampled logger configuration can be disabled easily by setting the service::telemetry::logs::sampling::enabled to false.

🚩 Deprecations 🚩

  • (Splunk) The following Auto Instrumentation options for the Linux installer script are deprecated and will only apply if the --instrumentation-version <version> option is specified for version 0.86.0 or older:
    • --[no-]generate-service-name: libsplunk.so no longer generates service names for instrumented applications. The default behavior is for the activated Java and/or Node.js Auto Instrumentation agents to automatically generate service names. Use the --service-name <name> option to override the auto-generated service names for all instrumented applications.
    • --[enable|disable]-telemetry: libsplunk.so no longer generates the splunk.linux-autoinstr.executions telemetry metric.

🚀 New components 🚀

  • (Splunk) Add the loadbalancing exporter (#3825)
  • (Splunk) Add the udplog receiver (#3826)

  • (Splunk) Add debian 12 support to installer (#3766)
  • (Splunk) Add new Auto Instrumentation options for the Linux installer script (#3791):
    • --with[out]-systemd-instrumentation: Activate auto instrumentation for only systemd services without preloading
      the libsplunk.so shared object library (default: --without-systemd-instrumentation)
    • Initial support for Splunk OpenTelemetry Auto Instrumentation for Node.js:
      • Activated by default if the --with-instrumentation or --with-systemd-instrumentation option is specified.
      • Use the --without-instrumentation-sdk node option to explicitly skip Node.js.
      • npm is required to install the Node.js Auto Instrumentation package. If npm is not installed, Node.js will
        be skipped automatically.
      • By default, the Node.js Auto Instrumentation package is installed with the npm install --global command. Use the
        --npm-command "<command>" option to specify a custom command.
      • Environment variables to activate and configure Node.js auto instrumentation are added to /etc/splunk/zeroconfig/node.conf (for --with-instrumentation) or
        /usr/lib/systemd/system.conf.d/00-splunk-otel-auto-instrumentation.conf (for --with-systemd-instrumentation) based on defaults and specified installation options.
    • Auto Instrumentation for Java is also activated by default if the --with-instrumentation or
      --with-systemd-instrumentation option is specified. Use the --without-instrumentation-sdk java option to skip Java.
    • --otlp-endpoint host:port: Set the OTLP gRPC endpoint for captured traces (default: http://LISTEN_INTERFACE:4317
      where LISTEN_INTERFACE is the value from the --listen-interface option if specified, or 127.0.0.1 otherwise)
    • See Linux Installer Script for more details.
  • (Splunk) Update splunk-otel-javaagent to v1.29.0 (#3788)
  • (Splunk) Redis discovery (#3731)
  • (Splunk) Update Bundled OpenJDK to 11.0.21+9 (#3819)
  • (Splunk) Oracledb discovery tweaks (remove static endpoint) (#3836)
  • (Contrib) probabilisticsamplerprocessor: Allow non-bytes values to be used as the source for the sampling decision (#18222)
  • (Contrib) kafkareceiver: Allow users to attach kafka header metadata with the log/metric/trace record in the pipeline. Introduce a new config param, 'header_extraction' and some examples. (#24367)
  • (Contrib) kafkaexporter: Adding Zipkin encoding option for traces to kafkaexporter (#21102)
  • (Contrib) kubeletstatsreceiver: Support specifying context for kubeConfig auth_type (#26665)
  • (Contrib) kubeletstatsreceiver: Adds new k8s.pod.cpu_limit_utilization, k8s.pod.cpu_request_utilization, k8s.container.cpu_limit_utilization, and k8s.container.cpu_request_utilization metrics that represent the ratio of cpu used vs set limits and requests. (#27276)
  • (Contrib) kubeletstatsreceiver: Adds new k8s.pod.memory_limit_utilization, k8s.pod.memory_request_utilization, k8s.container.memory_limit_utilization, and k8s.container.memory_request_utilization metrics that represent the ratio of memory used vs set limits and requests. (#25894)

🧰 Bug fixes 🧰

  • (Contrib) spanmetricsprocessor: Prune histograms when dimension cache is pruned. (#27080)
    • Dimension cache was always pruned but histograms were not being pruned. This caused metric series created
      by processor/spanmetrics to grow unbounded.
  • (Contrib) splunkhecreceiver: Fix receiver behavior when used for metrics and logs at the same time; metrics are no longer dropped. (#27473)
  • (Contrib) metricstransformprocessor: Fixes a nil pointer dereference when copying an exponential histogram (#27409)
  • (contrib) k8sclusterreceiver: change k8s.container.ready, k8s.pod.phase, k8s.pod.status_reason, k8s.namespace.phase units to empty (#10553)

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • (Contrib) jaegerreceiver: Deprecate remote_sampling config in the jaeger receiver (#24186)
    The jaeger receiver will fail to start if remote_sampling config is specified in it. The receiver.jaeger.DisableRemoteSampling feature gate can be set to let the receiver start and treat remote_sampling config as no-op. In a future version this feature gate will be removed and the receiver will always fail when remote_sampling config is specified.

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • (Splunk) Fluentd installation disabled by default for the splunk-otel-collector salt formula (#3448)
    • Specify the install_fluentd: True attribute in your pillar to enable installation
  • (Splunk/Contrib) Removes the deprecated receiver/prometheus_exec receiver. Please see migration guide for further details. (#24740) (#3512)
  • (Contrib) receiver/k8scluster: Unify predefined and custom node metrics. (#24776)
    • Update metrics description and units to be consistent
    • Remove predefined metrics definitions from metadata.yaml because they are controlled by node_conditions_to_report
      and allocatable_types_to_report config options.

💡 Enhancements 💡

  • (Splunk) Use SPLUNK_LISTEN_INTERFACE and associated installer option to configure the network interface used by the collector for default configurations (#3421)
    • Existing installations will rely on the default value of SPLUNK_LISTEN_INTERFACE set to 0.0.0.0. Users must add SPLUNK_LISTEN_INTERFACE to their collector configuration to take advantage of this new option.
  • (Contrib) receiver/collectdreceiver: Migrate from opencensus to pdata, change collectd, test to match pdata format. (#20760)
  • (Contrib) pkg/ottl: Add support for using addition and subtraction with time and duration (#22009)

    Currently OTTL provides no way to use any defined Converter within another Editor/Converter.
    Although Converters can be passed as a parameter, they are always executed and the result is what is actually passed as the parameter.
    This allows OTTL to pass Converters themselves as a parameter so they can be executed within the function.
  • (Contrib) resourcedetectionprocessor: GCP resource detection processor can automatically add gcp.gce.instance.hostname and gcp.gce.instance.name attributes. (#24598)
  • splunkhecexporter: Add heartbeat check while startup and new config param, heartbeat/startup (defaults to false). This is different than the healtcheck_startup, as the latter doesn't take token or index into account. (#24411)

  • (Contrib) receiver/sqlquery: Set ObservedTimestamp on collected logs (#23776)
  • (Core) extension: Add optional ConfigWatcher interface (#6596)
    • Extensions implementing this interface will be notified of the Collector's effective config.
  • (Core) otelcol: Add optional ConfmapProvider interface for Config Providers (#6596)
    • This allows providing the Collector's configuration as a marshaled confmap.Conf object from a ConfigProvider
  • (Core) service: Add CollectorConf field to service.Settings (#6596)
    This field is intended to be used by the Collector to pass its effective configuration to the service.

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

  • (Splunk) Fluentd installation disabled by default for the Linux and Windows installer scripts (#3369)
    • Specify the --with-fluentd (Linux) or with_fluentd = 1 (Windows) option to enable installation
  • (Splunk) Fluentd installation disabled by default for the Windows Chocolatey package (#3377)
    • Specify the /WITH_FLUENTD:true parameter to enable installation
  • (Contrib) receiver/prometheus: Remove unused buffer_period and buffer_count configuration options (#24258)
  • (Contrib) receiver/prometheus: Add the trim_metric_suffixes configuration option to allow enable metric suffix trimming. (#21743, #8950)
    • When enabled, suffixes for unit and type are trimmed from metric names. If you previously enabled the pkg.translator.prometheus.NormalizeName feature gate, you will need to enable this option to have suffixes trimmed.

💡 Enhancements 💡

  • (Core) service: Add support for exporting internal metrics to the console (#7641)
    • Internal collector metrics can now be exported to the console using the otel-go stdout exporter.
  • (Core) service: Add support for interval and timeout configuration in periodic reader (#7641)
  • (Core) service: Add support for OTLP export for internal metrics (#7641)
    • Internal collector metrics can now be exported via OTLP using the otel-go otlpgrpc and otlphttp exporters.
  • (Core) scraperhelper: Adding optional timeout field to scrapers (#7951)
  • (Core) receiver/otlp: Add http url paths per signal config options to otlpreceiver (#7511)

  • (Contrib) processor/resourcedetection: Add an option to add host.arch resource attributio in system detector semantic convention (#22939)
  • (Contrib) pkg/ottl: Add new Len converter that computes the length of strings, slices, and maps. (#23847)
  • (Contrib) pkg/ottl: Improve error reporting for errors during statement parsing (#23840)
    • Failures are now printed for all statements within a context, and the statements are printed next to the errors.
    • Erroneous values found during parsing are now quoted in error logs.
  • (Contrib) exporter/prometheusremotewrite: Improve the latency and memory utilisation of the conversion from OpenTelemetry to Prometheus remote write (#24288)
  • (Contrib) exporter/prometheusremotewrite, exporter/prometheus: Add add_metric_suffixes configuration option, which can disable the addition of type and unit suffixes. (#21743, #8950)
  • (Contrib) exporter/prometheusremotewrite: Downscale exponential histograms to fit prometheus native histograms if necessary (#17565)
  • (Contrib) processor/routing: Enables processor to extract metadata from client.Info (#20913)
  • (Contrib) processor/transform: Report all errors from parsing OTTL statements (#24245)

🧰 Bug fixes 🧰

  • (Contrib) receiver/prometheus: Don't fail the whole scrape on invalid data (#24030)
  • (Contrib) pkg/stanza: Fix issue where nil body would be converted to string (#24017)
  • (Contrib) pkg/stanza: Fix issue where syslog input ignored enable_octet_counting setting (#24073)
  • (Contrib) receiver/filelog: Fix issue where files were deduplicated unnecessarily (#24235)
  • (Contrib) processor/tailsamplingprocessor: Fix data race when accessing spans during policies evaluation (#24283)
  • (Contrib) zipkintranslator: Stop dropping error tags from Zipkin spans. The old code removes all errors from those spans, rendering them useless if an actual error happened. In addition, no longer delete error tags if they contain useful information (#16530)
