This hooks into Telemetry::sync() to update Broker-level metrics tracking the
peerings' send buffer state. We do this in the cluster framework so we can label
the resulting metrics with Zeek cluster node names, not Broker's endpoint IDs.
This adds a Broker-specific script to the cluster framework, loaded only when
Zeek is running in cluster mode. It adds logging in cluster.log as well as
telemetry via a metrics counter for Broker-observed backpressure disconnects.
The new zeek_broker_backpressure_disconnects counter, labeled by the neighboring
peer that the reporting node has determined to be unresponsive, counts the
number of unpeerings for this reason.
Here the node "worker" has observed node "proxy" falling behind once:
# HELP zeek_broker_backpressure_disconnects_total Number of Broker peering drops due to a neighbor falling too far behind in message I/O
# TYPE zeek_broker_backpressure_disconnects_total counter
zeek_broker_backpressure_disconnects_total{endpoint="worker",peer="proxy"} 1
Includes small btest baseline update to reflect @load of a new script.
This eliminates one place in which we currently need to mirror changes to the
script-land Cluster::Node record. Instead of keeping an exact in-core equivalent, the
Supervisor now treats the data structure as opaque, and stores the whole cluster
table as a JSON string.
We may replace the script-layer Supervisor::ClusterEndpoint in the future, using
Cluster::Node directly. But that's a more invasive change that will affect how
people invoke Supervisor::create() and similars.
Relying on JSON for serialization has the side-effect of removing the
Supervisor's earlier quirk of using 0/tcp, not 0/unknown, to indicate unused
ports in the Supervisor::ClusterEndpoint record.
Currently this requires using this with a normal cluster - or sending
messages by yourself.
It, in principle, should also work with SQLITE - but that is a bit
nonsensical without being able to change the storage location.
More aspects of the cluster configuration to get fleshed out later,
but a basic cluster like one would use for a live deployment
can now be instantiated and run under supervision. The new
clusterized-pcap-processing supervisor mode is also not done yet.
For backward compatibility when reading values, we first check
the ZEEK-prefixed value, and if not set, then check the corresponding
BRO-prefixed value.
* All "Broxygen" usages have been replaced in
code, documentation, filenames, etc.
* Sphinx roles/directives like ":bro:see" are now ":zeek:see"
* The "--broxygen" command-line option is now "--zeexygen"
