Implemented the stricter macOS path for collecting stat and thermal_zone.

Key behavior:

  • thermal_zone now enumerates Apple Silicon HID temperature sensors and emits:
    node_thermal_temperature_celsius{sensor="..."}
  • Temperature collection continues even when IOPMCopyCPUPowerStatus returns kIOReturnNotFound, which Apple documents as valid behavior when power-limit data is unpublished. [Apple documentation](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/iokit/1557079-iopmcopycpupowerstatus)
  • Legacy CPU limit gauges are created only after valid values are received, eliminating the epoch-zero placeholder metrics.
  • Values are type/range/finite checked; physically impossible temperatures are ignored.
  • Successful values are retained on later failures. No metric expiration was added.
  • Collector succeeds if either legacy power limits or temperature sensors return valid information.
  • Boot time remains under the stat collector; no separate boottime module exists.

Current node_exporter recently added the same Apple Silicon HID sensor mechanism, although our implementation additionally avoids letting the unsupported legacy call block temperature collection. [node_exporter changelog](https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md), [known M3 failure](prometheus/node_exporter#2906)

Observed output now includes real readings:

node_boot_time_seconds = 1785842396.5451341
node_thermal_temperature_celsius{sensor="gas gauge battery"} = 32
node_thermal_temperature_celsius{sensor="PMU tdie7"} = 46.28
node_thermal_temperature_celsius{sensor="NAND CH0 temp"} = 37

Verification passed:

  • cmake --build build -j8 --target flb-plugin-in_node_exporter_metrics fluent-bit-bin
  • Direct stat,thermal_zone end-to-end collection on Apple Silicon
  • macOS Leaks using the focused self-exiting Fluent Bit run: 0 leaks for 0 total leaked bytes
  • git diff --check

There is no dedicated node_exporter_metrics integration scenario in this repository, so the focused binary invocation was used instead.

Darwin node exporter metrics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Platform metric wiring
plugins/in_node_exporter_metrics/ne.h, plugins/in_node_exporter_metrics/ne_stat.c, plugins/in_node_exporter_metrics/ne_thermalzone.c
macOS enables stat and thermal_zone. Darwin gauge fields are added. Platform dispatch selects the Darwin collectors.
Darwin boot-time collector
plugins/in_node_exporter_metrics/ne_stat_darwin.c
The stat collector exports node_boot_time_seconds from kern.boottime, including microseconds.
Darwin thermal sources
plugins/in_node_exporter_metrics/ne_thermalzone_darwin.c
The collector validates CPU power-limit values and reads ARM64 HID temperature services. Non-ARM builds use a no-op temperature path.
Thermal collector lifecycle
plugins/in_node_exporter_metrics/ne_thermalzone_darwin.c
Initialization creates the temperature gauge. Updates collect CPU and temperature metrics. The thermal_zone collector registers both callbacks.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to ada37

The PR adds macOS stat and thermal-zone metrics, with successful build, collection, and leak checks reported. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains; only a minor formatting follow-up is noted.

284-305: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use the configured control-block brace style.

Lines 284-305 use same-line opening braces. Move each for and if opening brace to the next line.

Proposed change
-    for (index = 0; index < service_count; index++) {
+    for (index = 0; index < service_count; index++)

+        if (service == NULL)
+        {
             continue;
         }

         name_result = -1;
         name_ref = IOHIDServiceClientCopyProperty(service, CFSTR("Product"));

             }
             CFRelease(name_ref);
         }

             snprintf(sensor_name, sizeof(sensor_name),
                      "Unknown #%d", unnamed_sensor_count);

As per coding guidelines: control-block opening braces must be on the next line.
