Found a runtime error with the benchmark input in main (future 9.x). I tested with 8.17.0 and the issue is not reproducible.

How to reproduce

  1. Create a config file using the benchmark input:
cat <<EOF > benchbug.yml
logging.level: info
logging.to_stderr: true
filebeat.inputs:
  - type: benchmark
    enabled: true
    message: "This is a test message"
    count: 1
output.console:
  pretty: true
EOF
  1. git checkout main, make sure it is up to date
  2. go run ./x-pack/filebeat -c ./benchbug.yml
  3. Check the logs
{"log.level":"info","@timestamp":"2025-01-10T10:25:09.769-0300","log.logger":"input.benchmark","log.origin":{"function":"github.com/elastic/beats/v7/filebeat/input/v2/compat.(*runner).Start.func1","file.name":"compat/compat.go","file.line":135},"message":"Input 'benchmark' starting","service.name":"filebeat","id":"E9FF95AF8412E4D9","ecs.version":"1.6.0"}
