Description of problem: We created a metric name linter in kubevirt based on promlint: https://github.com/kubevirt/kubevirt/pull/9709. This metrics names failed: $ make lint-metrics hack/dockerized "./hack/prom-metric-linter/metric_name_linter.sh" go version go1.19.2 linux/amd64 go version go1.19.2 linux/amd64 kubevirt_migrate_vmi_pending_count: non-histogram and non-summary metrics should not have "_count" suffix kubevirt_migrate_vmi_running_count: non-histogram and non-summary metrics should not have "_count" suffix kubevirt_migrate_vmi_scheduling_count: non-histogram and non-summary metrics should not have "_count" suffix kubevirt_vmi_cpu_affinity: counter metrics should have "_total" or "_timestamp_seconds" suffix kubevirt_vmi_filesystem_capacity_bytes_total: non-counter metrics should not have "_total" suffix kubevirt_vmi_memory_domain_bytes_total: non-counter metrics should not have "_total" suffix kubevirt_vmi_memory_pgmajfault: counter metrics should have "_total" or "_timestamp_seconds" suffix kubevirt_vmi_memory_pgminfault: counter metrics should have "_total" or "_timestamp_seconds" suffix kubevirt_vmi_memory_swap_in_traffic_bytes_total: non-counter metrics should not have "_total" suffix kubevirt_vmi_memory_swap_out_traffic_bytes_total: non-counter metrics should not have "_total" suffix kubevirt_vmi_outdated_count: non-histogram and non-summary metrics should not have "_count" suffix kubevirt_vmi_storage_flush_times_ms_total: metric names should not contain abbreviated units kubevirt_vmi_storage_read_times_ms_total: metric names should not contain abbreviated units kubevirt_vmi_storage_write_times_ms_total: metric names should not contain abbreviated units kubevirt_vmi_vcpu_seconds: counter metrics should have "_total" or "_timestamp_seconds" suffix kubevirt_vmi_vcpu_wait_seconds: counter metrics should have "_total" or "_timestamp_seconds" suffix kubevirt_vmsnapshot_disks_restored_from_source_total: non-counter metrics should not have "_total" suffix make: *** [Makefile:213: lint-metrics] Error 1 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.13 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.cd kubevirt 2.make lint-metrics Actual results: some metric names are not aligned with promlint. Expected results: Metrics named will be aligned with promlint linter and Prometheus best practices. Additional info: as for now the list of metrics are ignored in the linter.
