Are you running node_exporter in Docker?

no

What did you do that produced an error?

I simply ran the exporter as documented above

discordianfish commented 10 months ago

Uhm no idea how this could happen. @SuperQ any ideas?

SuperQ commented 10 months ago

Very possible to have weird data coming from the ethtool syscall has problems. The data is vendor driver dependent, so you never know what they're going to spit out.

We would need a debug dump to see what's going wrong.

frittentheke commented 10 months ago

@SuperQ @discordianfish just let me know what exactly you need / I should gather. This issue here reminds me of the counter spikes (https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/issues/1849, see last few comment there). Both issues I observe on machines running Intel E810 nics.

Maybe there actually is something fishy with their ice kernel module? I already am in contact with an Intel dev. Any more info might help them find issues as well.

SuperQ commented 10 months ago

Can you run a debugging exporter and scrape it manually with curl to see what it does?

Something like this:

node_exporter \
    --log.level=debug \
    --collector.ethtool \
    --collector.ethtool.device-exclude="^(brq|tap|veth|vxlan|virbr|usb).*$" \
    --collector.disable-defaults \
    --web.listen-address=127.0.0.1:9101
frittentheke commented 10 months ago

@SuperQ @discordianfish this is what I got ...

In the meantime the machine was I updated to Linux Kernel 6.5.0 (Ubuntu HWE), but the issue is still there. Linux mymachine 6.5.0-14-generic #14~22.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Nov 20 18:15:30 UTC 2 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Here please also find lspci and hwinfo (of the network cards):

If there is anything else I could provide, please let me know.

frittentheke commented 9 months ago

@SuperQ @discordianfish may I nag you once again about this issue.

Is there any more info I could provide?

discordianfish commented 9 months ago

I'm really clueless right now.

Here is the more human readable error:

collected metric node_ethtool_received_bytes_nic label:{name:"device" value:"eno1"} untyped:{value:0} has help "Network interface rx_bytes_nic" but should have "Network interface rx_bytes.nic"

...and the metric in question:

# HELP node_ethtool_received_bytes_nic Network interface rx_bytes.nic
# TYPE node_ethtool_received_bytes_nic untyped
node_ethtool_received_bytes_nic{device="ens2f0np0"} 1.4365457353e+10
node_ethtool_received_bytes_nic{device="ens2f1np1"} 3.372554746075e+12

@SuperQ: I assume somehow the help string is set to Network interface rx_bytes_nic on a earlier collection and then changes to Network interface rx_bytes.nic? Or anything else that could cause this error?

frittentheke commented 9 months ago

@discordianfish @SuperQ can I help at all with this issue?

There is (was actually) another issue with the Intel E8xx (ice) driver causing spikes (https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/issues/1849), which I communicated to Intel for them to fix, which they now did: https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/issues/1849#issuecomment-1968647830

If this issue here is also related to data received from the driver / kernel modules, I'd love to have Intel take a look as well.

SuperQ commented 9 months ago

The output of ethtool -S <device> would be useful.

frittentheke commented 9 months ago

The output of ethtool -S <device> would be useful.

Certainly @SuperQ ... here you go:

ethtool_S__ens2f0np0.txt ethtool_S__ens2f1np1.txt

SuperQ commented 9 months ago

Very strange, it doesn't differ in those files.

I think the only thing we can try to do is apply the same sanitizer rules to the help text.
