2020-08-20Pushing cloud-init log to the KVP (#529)Moustafa Moustafa
Push the cloud-init.log file (Up to 500KB at once) to the KVP before reporting ready to the Azure platform. Based on the analysis done on a large sample of cloud-init.log files, Here's the statistics collected on the log file size: P50 P90 P95 P99 P99.9 P99.99 137K 423K 537K 3.5MB 6MB 16MB This change limits the size of cloud-init.log file data that gets dumped to KVP to 500KB. So for ~95% of the cases, the whole log file will be dumped and for the remaining ~5%, we will get the last 500KB of the cloud-init.log file. To asses the performance of the 500KB limit, 250 VM were deployed with a 500KB cloud-init.log file and the time taken to compress, encode and dump the entries to KVP was measured. Here's the time in milliseconds percentiles: P50 P99 P999 75.705 232.701 1169.636 Another 250 VMs were deployed with this logic dumping their normal cloud-init.log file to KVP, the same timing was measured as above. Here's the time in milliseconds percentiles: P50 P99 P999 1.88 5.277 6.992 Added excluded_handlers to the report_event function to be able to opt-out from reporting the events of the compressed cloud-init.log file to the cloud-init.log file. The KVP break_down logic had a bug, where it will reuse the same key for all the split chunks of KVP which results in overwriting the split KVPs by the last one when consumed by Hyper-V. I added the split chunk index as a differentiator to the KVP key. The Hyper-V consumes the KVPs from the KVP file as chunks whose key is 512KB and value is 2048KB but the Azure platform expects the value to be 1024KB, thus I introduced the Azure value limit.

This enables warnings produced by pylint for unused variables (W0612), and fixes the existing errors.
2016-12-22LICENSE: Allow dual licensing GPL-3 or Apache 2.0Jon Grimm
This has been a recurring ask and we had initially just made the change to the cloud-init 2.0 codebase. As the current thinking is we'll just continue to enhance the current codebase, its desirable to relicense to match what we'd intended as part of the 2.0 plan here. - put a brief description of license in LICENSE file - put full license versions in LICENSE-GPLv3 and LICENSE-Apache2.0 - simplify the per-file header to reference LICENSE - tox: ignore H102 (Apache License Header check) Add license header to files that ship. Reformat headers, make sure everything has vi: at end of file. Non-shipping files do not need the copyright header, but at the moment tests/ have it.
2016-05-06fix timestamp in reporting events.Scott Moser
If no timestamp was passed into a ReportingEvent, then the default was used. That default was 'time.time()' which was evaluated once only at import time.
2015-08-31events: add timestamp and origin, support file postingScott Moser
This adds 'timestamp' and 'origin' to events. The timestamp is simply that, a floating point timestamp of when the event occurred. The origin indicates the source / reporter of this. It is useful to have a single endpoint with multiple different things reporting to it. For example, MAAS will configure cloud-init and curtin to report to the same endpoint and then it can differenciate who made the post. Admittedly, they could use multiple endpoints, but this this seems sane. Also, add support for posting files at the close of an event. This is utilized in curtin to post a log file when the install is done. files are posted on success or fail of the event.
2015-08-31split 'events' portion of reporting into separate fileScott Moser
this just separates events from other things that could conceivably be reported.
