Since this is a property of the process's executable, and not of a process itself, I think it makes more sense for these attributes to be |

@AsuNa-jp could you update this PR and address comments? thanks |

Non-blocking, can be merged without resolving this unless there's a good answer.
@open-telemetry/specs-semconv-maintainers is there a better way to specify a note like this in the YAML? This results in two separate identical notes being generated in the markdown. A way to make one note about this that could be linked by both attributes would be nice, but as far as I know there isn't a way to do that right?

there is no way to do this currently afaik, because we are not linking notes, it happens automatically

Hi @trisch-me |
|
@AsuNa-jp we have discussed yesterday that this PR is ready to be merged so we should just wait until one of the maintainers will merge it unless other questions will arise |
@trisch-me I am really glad to hear that! Thank you so much for your kind support! |

I'm blocking this since:
-
it uses attribute names that are defined in add
origin_referrer_urlandorigin_urlto the file attribute #1430, but that one is not merged. I recommend to collaborate on addorigin_referrer_urlandorigin_urlto the file attribute #1430 and reach conclusion there. -
it defines attributes that are not referenced by any semantic conventions, i.e. it's not clear who/how/when would populate them. Please consider adding events that would leverage these attributes or check if those are applicable to existing semantic conventions and reference these attributed from them.

are those necessary - could similar file attributes being introduced in #1430 be used instead? if not, why?

Hi @lmolkova I now understand that adding a new attribute would be difficult without clearly defining who will use it. I understand that adding a new attribute would be difficult without clearly defining who will use it. This might be repeating a question I asked you the other day, but I initially thought that OS event processing was also possible with Otel. However, based on your feedback, I now understand that this is not the case. If possible, could you please share specific technical documentation or an example of Otel instrumentation that illustrates who uses Otel and how it is used? and if you have any examples of handling file or process-related events with Otel, could you share them with me? |
Changes
This PR adds the following attributes. (Updated Dec/25/2024)
process.executable.origin_referrer_urlprocess.executable.origin_urlDetails
Generally, a process is generated from an executable file. Therefore, the process model naturally includes attributes containing information about the originating executable file. In this PR, we are adding the following two attributes to further extend the originating executable file details.
process.executable.origin_referrer_urlprocess.executable.origin_urlThe name of these attributes and where to add it were decided after consulting with @joe-desimone and @trisch-me.
The meaning of each field is explained in detail in the PR below.
