Changes

v1.79.5

Released at 10-11-2022

v1.79.x is a line of LTS releases (e.g. long-time support). It contains important up-to-date bugfixes.
The v1.79.x line will be supported for at least 12 months since v1.79.0 release

Update note 1: vmalert: the crlfEscape template function becames obsolete starting from this release. It can be safely removed from alerting templates, since \n chars are properly escaped with other *Escape functions now. See this and this issue for details.

SECURITY: update Go builder to v1.19.3. This fixes CVE-2022 security issue. See the changelog.
BUGFIX: properly register new time series in per-day inverted index if they were ingested during the last 10 seconds of the day. See this issue. Thanks to @lmarszal for the bugreport and for the initial fix.
BUGFIX: properly accept OpenTSDB telnet put lines without tags without the need to specify the trailing whitespace. See this issue.
BUGFIX: MetricsQL: properly merge buckets with identical le values, but with different string representation of these values when calculating histogram_quantile and histogram_share. For example, http_request_duration_seconds_bucket{le="5"} and http_requests_duration_seconds_bucket{le="5.0"}. Such buckets may be returned from distinct targets. Thanks to @647-coder for the pull request.
BUGFIX: vmalert: change severity level for log messages about failed attempts for sending data to remote storage from error to warn. The message for about all failed send attempts remains at error severity level.
BUGFIX: vmalert: properly escape string passed to quotesEscape template function, so it can be safely embedded into JSON string. This makes obsolete the crlfEscape function. See this and this issue.
BUGFIX: vmselect: expose missing metric vm_cache_size_max_bytes{type="promql/rollupResult"} . This metric is used for monitoring rollup cache usage with the query vm_cache_size_bytes{type="promql/rollupResult"} / vm_cache_size_max_bytes{type="promql/rollupResult"} in the same way as this is done for other cache types.
