1736689 - Remove or update probes expiring in Firefox 96: OPAQUE_RESPONSE_BLOCKING*

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Networking, task, P2)

Description

[telemetry-probes]

The following Firefox probes will expire in the next major Firefox nightly release: version 96 [1].

OPAQUE_RESPONSE_BLOCKING_TIME_MS
OPAQUE_RESPONSE_BLOCKING

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.

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: netwerk/test/browser/browser_opaque_response_blocking_telemetry.js will fail if the probe expires.

HsinYi, could you find someone to take this bug?

These telemetry probes are for collecting the data to determine the next step of Opaque Response Blocking.
They will expire in Firefox 96.

Thankyou

Sure!

Thankyou

Kris, can you please take this one?
Anne, any suggestions how long we wanna keep these telemetry probes, i.e. what's the next expiring version?

I think keeping them until we have more time to devote to the telemetry and ORB would make sense as otherwise we would have to start from scratch again. I'd suggest extending until Firefox 100-102 or so.

Attachment: Bug 1736689 - Disable browser_opaque_response_blocking_telemetry.js in Nightly for now.

The telemetry that this is testing expires in 96. We can reenable the test
when we reenable the telemetry.

Here's the data-review request. If it's unlikely this can be reviewed today we should land mccr8's patch.

I updated my patch to revert mccr8's patch as well as update the probes as per comment 5 and comment 9. So what's left here is data review and review of my patch. Let me know if I missed anything.

No real need to uplift this since the probe won't expire in 95 anyway.
