Is this used anywhere?

internal/conntrack/mock.go

+}
+
+// NewZoneMarkAggregator creates a mock aggregator for testing
+func NewZoneMarkAggregator() (*MockZoneMarkAggregator, error) {


this should be named NewMockZoneMarkAggregator()

internal/conntrack/config.go

+}
+
+// LoadConfig loads conntrack configuration from environment variables
+func LoadConfig() *Config {


it's confusing to use env vars directly for config here, when the top-level exporter config is driven by CLI flags
we should be consistent and use CLI flags for everything.
this package (internal/conntrack) shouldn't really care about flags vs env vars actually, it should only care about its own Config type/struct and associated defaults

it should be left up to the caller to define how to change the config (env vars, flags, whatever)

anitgandhi · 2025-10-28T19:03:04Z

internal/conntrack/aggregator_linux_test.go

+				// Test concurrent snapshot access
+				done := make(chan bool, 10)
+				for i := 0; i < 10; i++ {
+					go func() {
+						snapshot := agg.Snapshot()
+						if snapshot == nil {
+							t.Error("Concurrent snapshot returned nil")
+						}
+						done <- true
+					}()
+				}
+
+				// Wait for all goroutines
+				for i := 0; i < 10; i++ {
+					<-done
+				}


could simplify this with a waitgroup

-	cs []prometheus.Collector
+	mu               sync.Mutex
+	cs               []prometheus.Collector
+	conntrackEnabled bool


is there ever a situation where this is false but aggregator is non-nil?
i don't believe there would be , in which case this extra bool doesn't provide any value

remove this

anitgandhi · 2025-10-29T14:46:42Z

internal/conntrack/aggregator.go

aggregator.go would be a better name

anitgandhi · 2025-10-29T14:50:46Z

CONNTRACK_CONFIG.md

this feels out-dated at this point seeing as we don't have env vars anymore and also in this PR we didn't have the hardcoded consts either
i'd recommend getting rid of this doc and instead making the godoc in internal/conntrack/config.go more clear by adding these details

anitgandhi · 2025-10-29T14:52:39Z

internal/ovsexporter/ovsexporter.go

+		newDatapathCollector(c.Datapath.List),
 	}
+
+	// Create the aggregator


i don't see why we should put this in internal/ovsexporter at all
we should instead put the conntrack prometheus logic in internal/conntrack/exporter.go , and then just import it from main.go (if the additional exporter is enabled, which should be behind a new config flag bool in main.go)

my bad. added it in this way.

anitgandhi · 2025-10-29T16:04:17Z

internal/conntrack/aggregator_linux.go

+}
+
+// StopWithTimeout cancels listening and closes the connection with a configurable timeout.
+func (a *ZoneMarkAggregator) StopWithTimeout(timeout time.Duration) error {


does this need to be exported?

anitgandhi · 2025-10-29T16:04:36Z

internal/conntrack/aggregator_linux.go

+func (a *ZoneMarkAggregator) GetError() error {
+	// This is a non-blocking way to check if there are any errors
+	// The actual error handling happens in Stop()
+	return nil
+}


looks like a no-op, remove if it's not going to be useful

internal/ovsexporter/ovsexporter.go

-			// Additional generic netlink family collectors can be added here.
-			newDatapathCollector(c.Datapath.List),
-		},
+	collectors := []prometheus.Collector{


can revert this

anitgandhi · 2025-10-30T16:57:29Z

internal/ovsexporter/test_helpers.go

this file should be in internal/conntrack right?

cleaned it up.

anitgandhi · 2025-10-30T17:53:54Z

cmd/openvswitch_exporter/main.go

+	case syscall.SIGHUP:
+		log.Printf("Received SIGHUP, reloading config...")
+		// TODO: Add config reload logic here
+		log.Printf("Config reloaded")
+		return


if we're not going to support this now (which i don't think we really need to), let's just not handle SIGHUP

cmd/openvswitch_exporter/main.go

anitgandhi · 2025-10-30T17:59:48Z

cmd/openvswitch_exporter/main.go

+		// TODO: Add config reload logic here
+		log.Printf("Config reloaded")
+		return
+	case syscall.SIGQUIT:


doesn't seem like we're actually treating SIGQUIT any differently than the other signals in practice

also, generally handling SIQQUIT gracefully is a bit weird. The Go runtime already does the "correct" thing , which is to dump a stack trace and exit.

let's remove handling for this, and just leave the standard SIGINT and SIGTERM for graceful termination
