1689274 - Remove or update probes expiring in Firefox 88: blocklist.mlbf_*

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Blocklist Implementation, task, P1)

Description

[telemetry-probes]

The following Firefox probes will expire in the next major Firefox nightly release: version 88 [1].

blocklist.lastModified_rs_addons
blocklist.lastModified_rs_addons_mlbf
blocklist.lastModified_rs_plugins
blocklist.mlbf_enabled
blocklist.mlbf_stashes
blocklist.mlbf_generation_time
blocklist.mlbf_stash_time_oldest
blocklist.mlbf_stash_time_newest

What to do about this:

1. If one, some, or all of the metrics are no longer needed, please remove them from their definitions files (Histograms.json, Scalars.yaml, Events.yaml).
2. If one, some, or all of the metrics are still required, please submit a Data Collection Review [2] and patch to extend their expiry. There is a shorter form for data collection renewal [3].

If you have any problems, please ask for help on the #data-help Slack channel or the #telemetry Matrix room at https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#telemetry:mozilla.org. We'll give you a hand.

Nice, coincides with the other blocklist telemetry that I am about to add (bug 1662857).

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: toolkit/mozapps/extensions/test/xpcshell/rs-blocklist/* depends on it.
