[dependabot]

Bumps go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace from 1.33.0 to 1.42.0.

Changelog

Sourced from go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace's changelog.

[1.42.0/0.64.0/0.18.0/0.0.16] 2026-03-06

Added

• Add go.opentelemetry.io/otel/semconv/v1.40.0 package. The package contains semantic conventions from the v1.40.0 version of the OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions. See the migration documentation for information on how to upgrade from go.opentelemetry.io/otel/semconv/v1.39.0. (#7985)
• Add Err and SetErr on Record in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/log to attach an error and set record exception attributes in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/log/sdk. (#7924)

Changed

• TracerProvider.ForceFlush in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/trace joins errors together and continues iteration through SpanProcessors as opposed to returning the first encountered error without attempting exports on subsequent SpanProcessors. (#7856)

Fixed

• Fix missing request.GetBody in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlpmetric/otlpmetrichttp to correctly handle HTTP2 GOAWAY frame. (#7931)
• Fix semconv v1.39.0 generated metric helpers skipping required attributes when extra attributes were empty. (#7964)
• Preserve W3C TraceFlags bitmask (including the random Trace ID flag) during trace context extraction and injection in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/propagation. (#7834)

Removed

• Drop support for [Go 1.24]. (#7984)

[1.41.0/0.63.0/0.17.0/0.0.15] 2026-03-02

This release is the last to support [Go 1.24]. The next release will require at least [Go 1.25].

Added

• Support testing of [Go 1.26]. (#7902)

Fixed

• Update Baggage in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/propagation and Parse and New in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/baggage to comply with W3C Baggage specification limits. New and Parse now return partial baggage along with an error when limits are exceeded. Errors from baggage extraction are reported to the global error handler. (#7880)
• Return an error when the endpoint is configured as insecure and with TLS configuration in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlplog/otlploghttp. (#7914)
• Return an error when the endpoint is configured as insecure and with TLS configuration in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlpmetric/otlpmetrichttp. (#7914)
• Return an error when the endpoint is configured as insecure and with TLS configuration in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracehttp. (#7914)

[1.40.0/0.62.0/0.16.0] 2026-02-02

Added

• Add AlwaysRecord sampler in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/trace. (#7724)
• Add Enabled method to all synchronous instrument interfaces (Float64Counter, Float64UpDownCounter, Float64Histogram, Float64Gauge, Int64Counter, Int64UpDownCounter, Int64Histogram, Int64Gauge,) in go.opentelemetry.io/otel/metric. This stabilizes the synchronous instrument enabled feature, allowing users to check if an instrument will process measurements before performing computationally expensive operations. (#7763)
• Add go.opentelemetry.io/otel/semconv/v1.39.0 package. The package contains semantic conventions from the v1.39.0 version of the OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions.

Investigation Needed: Breaking API Changes

This bump from otel/trace 1.33 → 1.42 causes Go compilation failures (CodeQL Go analysis also fails).

Action Items

1. Identify breaking API changes between v1.33 and v1.42 — check the OpenTelemetry Go changelog
2. Add unit tests around OTel tracing code before updating — specifically:
   • src/backend/util/ (MultiSpan, OTel tracing helpers)
   • src/backend/otel/ (collector/ingestion)
   • src/backend/kafka-queue/ (OTel context propagation)
   • Any code importing go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace directly
3. Fix compilation errors introduced by the new version
4. Tests should cover the tracing surface so future bumps show what broke, not just that it broke.

Leaving this open for investigation. Do not merge until tests are in place and passing.

Closing: Go compilation crashes Proxmox host. Will revisit after backend stabilization.

[dependabot]

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
