Summary

JEP-0013 Phase 3 PR A**: the MetricsStream contract and the telemetry reverse-scrape hub. This is the merge-base for the rest of the Phase 3 series.

Related PRs will be linked here as they are opened (B, C, D, E). This PR stays draft until those links are filled in.

  • Add MetricsStream to telemetry.proto (register + scrape request/response) and regenerate Go + Python stubs.
  • Telemetry fans out scrapes over connected streams, merges OpenMetrics, remaps unknown driver_type to other, and serves GET /metrics on a dedicated HTTP port (not gRPC :9093).
  • /healthz and /readyz as in DD-7. jumpstarter_scrape_timeouts_total on scrape timeout.
  • Lab follow-up in the same PR: stop silently dropping unparseable exporter snapshots. Log exporter metrics snapshot omitted and increment jumpstarter_metrics_parse_errors_total{exporter} on the same /metrics response. Python prometheus_client OpenMetrics exemplars (# {lease_id=...}) still fail parseMetricFamilies; the snapshot is omitted so one exporter cannot 500 the hub. Fixing OpenMetrics/exemplar parse is a later pass — not this PR.

No exporter client, no operator/image/CRD, no Loki in this PR.

DEMO

An asciinema demo for this combined Phase 3 work is available in the jep-0013-phase3-demo branch in my repository. Best to read the description in the DEMO.md there and then watch (manually for now) the asciinema file contained at the end - jep-0013-phase3-demo.cast

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The telemetry service now reverse-scrapes authenticated exporters over MetricsStream, merges and sanitizes OpenMetrics snapshots, exposes metrics and health endpoints, and adds CLI configuration. Generated Python protocol bindings include the new streaming RPC and message types.

Changes

Telemetry metrics reverse scraping

Layer / File(s) Summary
MetricsStream protocol contract
protocol/proto/.../telemetry.proto, python/packages/jumpstarter-protocol/.../telemetry_pb2*
The telemetry protocol adds bidirectional metric registration and scrape messages. Generated Python descriptors, stubs, and type declarations expose MetricsStream.
Authenticated exporter stream and scrape fan-out
controller/internal/service/telemetry_identity.go, controller/internal/service/metrics_stream.go, controller/internal/service/telemetry_service.go, controller/internal/service/metrics_stream_test.go
The service authenticates and registers exporters, tracks stream connections, fans out scrape requests, handles timeouts and disconnects, and updates readiness during startup and shutdown.
Metric merge, HTTP exposure, and CLI wiring
controller/internal/service/metrics_merge.go, controller/internal/service/telemetry_http.go, controller/cmd/telemetry/main.go, controller/internal/service/*_test.go
The service parses, merges, labels, and encodes exporter metrics. HTTP health, readiness, and metrics endpoints report service and scrape state. CLI flags configure the HTTP address, timeout, driver types, and exemplar keys.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 26b41

The telemetry service can overload under concurrent scrapes, omit valid exporter metrics, and hang during rollout or termination. These issues should be resolved before merge.

github.com/prometheus/common v0.62.0 expfmt NewDecoder TypeOpenMetrics Decode exemplars implementation

💡 Result:

In prometheus/common v0.62.0, the expfmt.NewDecoder function does not provide a native, fully featured implementation for decoding exemplars within the context of OpenMetrics or general exposition formats [1][2]. The expfmt package's NewDecoder is designed primarily to return a Decoder interface based on a specified Format [1][3]. As explicitly documented in its implementation, the current textDecoder (used when not using protobuf formats) does not fully support OpenMetrics, noting that while it may often succeed due to format similarities, it is not a complete implementation and is not intended for high-performance applications [1]. Regarding exemplars specifically: 1. The expfmt package focuses on parsing wire formats into dto.MetricFamily structures [4]. 2. Exemplar data, which is part of the OpenMetrics specification, requires specialized handling during parsing. The current textDecoder implementation in prometheus/common lacks explicit, robust support for parsing and extracting exemplar data from the exposition stream [1][4][5]. 3. If you require exemplar decoding for Prometheus-related data, such functionality is typically handled within the core prometheus/prometheus repository (e.g., in tsdb/record for WAL records) rather than the prometheus/common exposition format decoding package [6]. Users needing full OpenMetrics support, including exemplar parsing, should be aware that the expfmt decoder has historical limitations and is not a complete OpenMetrics parser [1]. For high-performance or production-grade handling of OpenMetrics data including exemplars, you may need to look for or implement a more specialized parser compatible with the OpenMetrics v1.0.0 specification [7].

OpenMetrics 1.0 specification exemplar syntax sample line "# {label"

💡 Result:

In the OpenMetrics 1.0 specification, the exemplar syntax is defined as part of the text format sample line [1][2][3]. An exemplar appears at the end of a sample line, prefixed by a hash sign (#) [1][4]. The formal ABNF definition for an exemplar is [1][2][3]: exemplar = SP HASH SP labels SP number [SP timestamp] The components are as follows: - SP: A single space [1][3]. - HASH: The character # [1][3]. - labels: An OpenMetrics LabelSet enclosed in curly braces, e.g., {label_name="value"} [1][3]. If no labels are present, an empty LabelSet must be represented as {} [1][2][3]. - number: The exemplar value (a float) [1][5][4]. - timestamp: An optional timestamp (a float) [1][2][3]. A sample line including an exemplar follows this structure [1][3]: metricname [labels] SP number [SP timestamp] [exemplar] LF Example lines from the specification demonstrate this usage [1][2]: foo_bucket{le="0.1"} 8 # {} 0.054 foo_bucket{le="1"} 11 # {trace_id="KOO5S4vxi0o"} 0.67 foo_bucket{le="10"} 17 # {trace_id="oHg5SJYRHA0"} 9.8 1520879607.789

Use an OpenMetrics parser that supports exemplars.

expfmt.NewDecoder with expfmt.TypeOpenMetrics uses the v0.62.0 text decoder, which rejects the valid OpenMetrics exemplar suffix. mergeSnapshots then drops the exporter snapshot before filterExemplar can apply its allowlist.

Update the parser and tests to retain allowlisted exemplar labels and remove non-allowlisted labels.

gRPC-Go Server GracefulStop active RPC streams GOAWAY Stop contract

💡 Result:

When you invoke GracefulStop in gRPC-Go, the server initiates a structured shutdown process to allow in-flight RPCs to complete while preventing the acceptance of new ones [1][2]. The implementation uses a "two-GOAWAY" mechanism to handle the inherent race condition between sending a shutdown signal and the client's receipt of that signal [3][4][5]. The shutdown contract and flow operate as follows: 1. Stopping New Connections: The server immediately closes all listening sockets, preventing any new incoming TCP connections [1][2]. 2. First GOAWAY: For existing connections, the server sends an initial HTTP/2 GOAWAY frame with a Last-Stream-ID set to the maximum possible value (Math.MaxUint32) [6][4][5]. This indicates that the server is entering a shutdown state but is still willing to accept new streams that may have been in transit before the client received the GOAWAY [4][5]. 3. RTT/Ping Wait: The server sends a PING frame and waits for an acknowledgement (ACK) or a timeout (typically 5 seconds) [4][5]. This period accounts for the Round Trip Time (RTT), allowing the server to process streams that were sent by the client before it saw the first GOAWAY [4][5]. 4. Second GOAWAY: After the RTT wait completes, the server sends a second GOAWAY frame with the Last-Stream-ID set to the actual ID of the last stream the server agreed to process [6][4]. This final GOAWAY strictly informs the client that no further streams will be accepted on that connection [6][4][5]. 5. Completion: Throughout this process, active RPC streams continue to process normally [1][6]. GracefulStop blocks until all such active method handlers have completed [1][2][7]. If a forceful shutdown is required (e.g., to prevent indefinite blocking), users must implement a separate timer and call the Stop method as a safety net [1]. This two-step approach is designed to balance the goal of not abruptly terminating active requests with the need to stop accepting new traffic reliably [1][5]. Clients that receive the GOAWAY are expected to stop sending new streams on the current connection and transparently retry them on a new connection [6][3].

grpc-go Server GracefulStop documentation active RPC streams Stop

💡 Result:

When calling GracefulStop on a gRPC-Go server, the server stops accepting new connections and new RPCs, but it does not forcibly terminate active RPCs [1][2]. Instead, it enters a "draining" state where it waits for all currently active (in-flight) RPCs to complete on their own [1][3][2]. Key behaviors regarding active RPC streams: 1. Blocking Behavior: GracefulStop blocks the calling goroutine until all pending RPCs—including streaming RPCs—have finished [1][4][2]. 2. Handling of Streams: For streaming RPCs, the server considers the stream "active" as long as the handler function is running [3][5]. If your handler contains a blocking operation, such as waiting on a stream.Recv call that never receives further data from the client, the handler will not return, and consequently, GracefulStop will remain blocked indefinitely [3][5]. 3. Recommended Mitigation (Timeout/Forceful Shutdown): Because GracefulStop can block indefinitely if handlers do not complete, it is standard practice to implement a safety net using a timer or context with a deadline [1][4]. If the RPCs do not complete within the desired timeframe, you should call Stop, which forcibly closes all active connections and interrupts the RPCs [1][4][6]. 4. Application Logic: To ensure graceful shutdown, your server-side application logic must be designed to handle cancellation signals (e.g., using context.Context) so that handlers can return promptly when the server is shutting down [5][6]. If you are using bidirectional streaming, you may need to implement a signaling mechanism (such as a channel) within your application logic to notify your handlers that they should stop processing and return [6]. In summary, GracefulStop waits for streams to finish naturally; it does not automatically "stop" or "cancel" active streams for you [1][3][5]. If an active stream handler is blocked waiting for client input, it will prevent the server from shutting down until a forceful Stop is invoked [3][5].

github jumpstarter-dev jumpstarter controller/internal/service/telemetry_service.go GracefulStop

💡 Result:

In the Jumpstarter project, there is no file named controller/internal/service/telemetry_service.go, as the Telemetry service is a separate component implemented by jumpstarter-telemetry, not part of the Jumpstarter controller [1]. The Jumpstarter controller does implement gRPC services such as ControllerService and RouterService [2][3]. These services typically handle graceful shutdowns by using the standard grpc.Server.GracefulStop method [4], which is invoked within a goroutine that waits for a context cancellation signal [2][3]. The standard GracefulStop method in gRPC (Go) stops the server from accepting new connections and RPCs while allowing existing in-flight RPCs to complete [4][5]. If you are looking for specific graceful shutdown patterns within the project's codebase, you will find similar implementations in files like controller/internal/service/controller_service.go and controller/internal/service/router_service.go, where a goroutine listens for ctx.Done and then calls server.Stop (or server.GracefulStop in equivalent implementations) [2][3]. Note that some implementations of graceful shutdown in Go gRPC services utilize a timeout mechanism combined with Stop as a fallback to ensure the process exits if active streams do not complete within a reasonable duration [6][5].

Bound the gRPC graceful-shutdown wait.

If an authenticated exporter keeps MetricsStream open, its stream.Recv() loop keeps the RPC active. Start then calls srv.GracefulStop() synchronously and can block indefinitely after the five-second HTTP shutdown timeout. Run graceful shutdown with a bounded timer, then call srv.Stop() to terminate remaining streams.

minimal, and validate.

In `@controller/internal/service/telemetry_service.go` at line 303, Update the
shutdown flow in Start around srv.GracefulStop so graceful shutdown runs
asynchronously with a bounded timer, then invoke srv.Stop after the deadline to
terminate any remaining MetricsStream RPCs. Preserve graceful completion when
all streams close before the timeout.
