End User Changelog

🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

• exporterhelper: Remove deprecated sending_queue::blocking options, use sending_queue::block_on_overflow. (#13211)

💡 Enhancements 💡

• mdatagen: Taught mdatagen to print the go list stderr output on failures, and to run go list where the metadata file is. (#13205)

• service: Support setting sampler and limits under service::telemetry::traces (#13201)
  This allows users to enable sampling and set span limits on internal Collector traces using the
  OpenTelemetry SDK declarative configuration.

• pdata/pprofile: Add new helper methods FromLocationIndices and PutLocation to read and modify the content of locations. (#13150)

• exporterhelper: Preserve request span context and client information in the persistent queue. (#11740, #13220, #13232)
  It allows internal collector spans and client information to propagate through the persistent queue used by
  the exporters. The same way as it's done for the in-memory queue.
  Currently, it is behind the exporter.PersistRequestContext feature gate, which can be enabled by adding
  --feature-gates=exporter.PersistRequestContext to the collector command line. An exporter buffer stored by
  a previous version of the collector (or by a collector with the feature gate disabled) can be read by a newer
  collector with the feature enabled. However, the reverse is not supported: a buffer stored by a newer collector with
  the feature enabled cannot be read by an older collector (or by a collector with the feature gate disabled).

🧰 Bug fixes 🧰

• pdata: Fix copying of optional fields when the source is unset. (#13268)
• service: Only allocate one set of internal log sampling counters (#13014)
  The case where logs are only exported to stdout was fixed in v0.126.0;
  this new fix also covers the case where logs are exported through OTLP.
