See https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/887, which will at
least be partially fixed by this.
From the spec https://golang.org/ref/spec#Conversions:
"In all non-constant conversions involving floating-point or complex
values, if the result type cannot represent the value the conversion
succeeds but the result value is implementation-dependent."
This ended up setting the converted values to 0 on Debian's Go 1.4.2
compiler, at least on 32-bit Debians.
This commit adds the honor_labels and params arguments to the scrape
config. This allows to specify query parameters used by the scrapers
and handling scraped labels with precedence.
Change #704 introduced a regression that started reading the queue only
after potential crash recovery. When more than the queue capacity was
indexed, Prometheus deadlocked.
This change is conceptually very simple, although the diff is large. It
switches logging from "github.com/golang/glog" to
"github.com/prometheus/log", while not actually changing any log
messages. V(1)-style logging has been changed to be log.Debug*().
This commit creates a (so far unused) package. It contains the a custom
lexer/parser for the query language.
ast.go: New AST that interacts well with the parser.
lex.go: Custom lexer (new).
lex_test.go: Lexer tests (new).
parse.go: Custom parser (new).
parse_test.go: Parser tests (new).
functions.go: Changed function type, dummies for parser testing (barely changed/dummies).
printer.go: Adapted from rules/ and adjusted to new AST (mostly unchanged, few additions).
Also, clean up some things in the code (especially introduction of the
chunkLenWithHeader constant to avoid the same expression all over the place).

Note that everything is obviously loaded from the page cache (as the
benchmark runs thousands of times with very small series files). In a
real-world scenario, I expect a larger impact, as the disk operations
will more often actually hit the disk. To load ~50 sequential chunks,
this reduces the iops from 100 seeks and 100 reads to 1 seek and 1
read.
