Doing some trials with the exporter, I found a data race condition in the go-routines launched by each
metricDescriptorsFunctionwhen about to pull time series.The raw stacktrace goes as follows:
Diving a bit deeper, the data race arises when one go routine, launched here, tries to write the
endTimeobject; while another one attempts to readendTime. Since theendTimedate object is shared across all go-routines this leads to a data race.This is easily fixed by passing both
startTimeandendTimeby copy to eachMetricsDescriptorprocessor go-routine.Notice that this problem ONLY happens if the ingest delay flag is turned on, because the offending write path is flagged with it.
