Description

Address issue #7808 by plumbing context.Context through resource.Environment and resource.Default.

Currently, these functions hardcode context.Background(), which prevents detectors (especially those that might perform network lookups or OS calls) from respecting timeouts or cancellations provided by the caller.

Changes

  • Adds EnvironmentWithContext(ctx context.Context) as a new public function.
  • Adds DefaultWithContext(ctx context.Context) as a new public function.
  • Maintains backward compatibility by making Environment() and Default() thin wrappers around the new WithContext variants.

Testing

  • Added unit tests in sdk/resource/resource_test.go to verify the new functions.
  • Verified that all sdk/resource tests pass.
  • Verified that make golangci-lint passes repository-wide.

Fixes #7808

#8127

## Added

- Add `IsRandom` and `WithRandom` on `TraceFlags`, and `IsRandom` on
`SpanContext` in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace`
for [W3C Trace Context Level 2 Random Trace ID
Flag](https://www.w3.org/TR/trace-context-2/#random-trace-id-flag)
support. (#8012)
- Add service detection with `WithService` in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/resource`. (#7642)
- Add `DefaultWithContext` and `EnvironmentWithContext` in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/resource` to support plumbing
`context.Context` through default and environment detectors. (#8051)
- Support attributes with empty value (`attribute.EMPTY`) in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracegrpc`.
(#8038)
- Support attributes with empty value (`attribute.EMPTY`) in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlpmetric/otlpmetricgrpc`.
(#8038)
- Support attributes with empty value (`attribute.EMPTY`) in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlplog/otlploggrpc`. (#8038)
- Support attributes with empty value (`attribute.EMPTY`) in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracehttp`.
(#8038)
- Support attributes with empty value (`attribute.EMPTY`) in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlpmetric/otlpmetrichttp`.
(#8038)
- Support attributes with empty value (`attribute.EMPTY`) in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlplog/otlploghttp`. (#8038)
- Support attributes with empty value (`attribute.EMPTY`) in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric/metricdata/metricdatatest`. (#8038)
- Add support for per-series start time tracking for cumulative metrics
in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric`.
  Set `OTEL_GO_X_PER_SERIES_START_TIMESTAMPS=true` to enable. (#8060)
- Add `WithCardinalityLimitSelector` for metric reader for configuring
cardinality limits specific to the instrument kind. (#7855)

## Changed

- Introduce the `EMPTY` Type in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/attribute` to
reflect that an empty value is now a valid value, with `INVALID`
remaining as a deprecated alias of `EMPTY`. (#8038)
- Refactor slice handling in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/attribute` to
optimize short slice values with fixed-size fast paths. (#8039)
- Improve performance of span metric recording in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/trace` by returning early if
self-observability is not enabled. (#8067)
- Improve formatting of metric data diffs in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric/metricdata/metricdatatest`. (#8073)

## Deprecated

- Deprecate `INVALID` in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/attribute`. Use
`EMPTY` instead. (#8038)

## Fixed

- Return spec-compliant `TraceIdRatioBased` description. This is a
breaking behavioral change, but it is necessary to
make the implementation
[spec-compliant](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/trace/sdk/#traceidratiobased).
(#8027)
- Fix a race condition in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric` where
the lastvalue aggregation could collect the value 0 even when no
zero-value measurements were recorded. (#8056)
- Limit HTTP response body to 4 MiB in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracehttp` to
mitigate excessive memory usage caused by a misconfigured or malicious
server.
Responses exceeding the limit are treated as non-retryable errors.
(#8108)
- Limit HTTP response body to 4 MiB in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlpmetric/otlpmetrichttp` to
mitigate excessive memory usage caused by a misconfigured or malicious
server.
Responses exceeding the limit are treated as non-retryable errors.
(#8108)
- Limit HTTP response body to 4 MiB in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlplog/otlploghttp` to
mitigate excessive memory usage caused by a misconfigured or malicious
server.
Responses exceeding the limit are treated as non-retryable errors.
(#8108)
- `WithHostID` detector in `go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/resource` to
use full path for `kenv` command on BSD. (#8113)
- Fix missing `request.GetBody` in
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlplog/otlploghttp` to
correctly handle HTTP2 GOAWAY frame. (#8096)
