stop() destroys the MeterProvider, and with it every View's
AggregationConfig. The SDK's SyncMetricStorage keeps a raw pointer to
that config, and the call-site statics keep the storage alive, so a
histogram record with a first-seen attribute set during the shutdown
drain would dereference freed memory. Application::run() stops the
registry before the job queue and server handler, so that window is
real.
phase_ is now atomic and stop() stores Stopped before tearing down.
Every XRPL_METRIC_* macro and every record*/increment* method checks
recording() (enabled and not stopped) instead of isEnabled(). meter_ is
never written after construction, so record threads read it without a
lock.
Also: an empty [telemetry] service_instance_id now falls back to the
node key on both the trace and the metrics side, so one node reports one
identity; disablePipeline() uses telemetry::noopMeter(); comments
corrected.

With tls_client_cert set, only traces_endpoint was checked for an https
scheme. Telemetry::makeMetricExporter() attaches the client certificate and
key to the metric exporter whenever use_tls=1, and metrics_endpoint defaults
to a plain http URL, so an operator who set up mTLS and overrode only
traces_endpoint exported every metric in the clear with the configured client
identity unused.
Check both endpoints, and state the requirement under metrics_endpoint and
tls_client_cert in the example config. Four config tests cover an explicit
http metrics endpoint, the omitted-key default, both endpoints on https, and
a one-way-TLS control that must stay accepted.
Three conflicts, all resolved by keeping this branch's rewrite and
re-applying the incoming change onto it:
- 09-data-collection-reference.md: phase-7 rewrote both attribute tables,
so the incoming table would have reverted them. Kept phase-7's and
re-applied the two "XRPL epoch" spellings.
- integration-test.sh: phase-7 moved these checks from StatsD to OTel and
no longer defines check_statsd_metric, so only this side compiles.
- TelemetryConfig.cpp: the incoming side carried networkTypeFromId(), which
this branch already has. Kept one definition and took the incoming
doc wording, which the auto-merged body below it already matches.
requireReadableFile proved a path readable with getFileContents, which
loads the whole file into a std::string and then drops it. One of the
three paths it checks is tls_client_key, so a private key was loaded to
answer a question that does not need its contents. It now stats the
path, rejects anything that is not a regular file, and opens it without
reading. The message shape is unchanged:
"[telemetry] <key> cannot be read: <path> - <reason>".
A path naming a directory used to escape as an ios failure from the
stream buffer, naming neither the config key nor the path. It is now
rejected as "not a regular file" with both named. The new test covers
that case; it fails against the old implementation and against a copy
with the file-type branch removed.
The runbook's quick start and disable sections both told the reader to
run "cmake --preset default". No presets file is tracked, and the only
preset Conan generates is conan-release, so each of those steps failed
on its first command. Replaced with the flow BUILD.md documents, and
noted that telemetry is the current default while still passing the
flags.
Two conflicts, both additive.
TelemetryConfig.cpp: this branch added requireHttpsEndpoint next to
requireReadableFile; upstream added readConsensusTraceStrategy at the same spot.
Both kept.
05-configuration-reference.md: this branch added the two client-certificate rows
while upstream corrected the consensus strategy value from attribute to random.
Both kept. Also drops the stale "not yet implemented" row for
consensus_trace_strategy, which the merged table now contradicts twice over: the
option is parsed, and its value is no longer spelled attribute.
The OTLP/HTTP exporter selects TLS from the endpoint URL scheme alone
(HttpSslOptions in the pinned SDK matches "https:" exactly), so a client
certificate handed to it alongside an http:// traces_endpoint is loaded and
never presented. The parser checked the cert/key pairing, use_tls and file
readability, but never the scheme, and the default traces_endpoint is plain
HTTP. makeTelemetrySetup() now requires traces_endpoint to start with
"https://" whenever tls_client_cert is set, including when the key is left
at its default.
Nothing asserted the client options reaching the exporter, so a swapped
certificate and key would have passed every test. Move the options mapping
into makeTraceExporterOptions() and assert it at that boundary with
distinct certificate and key paths, plus a one-way-TLS control and a
use_tls=0 control. One case runs the whole path from a [telemetry] section.
Runbook and example-config fixes:
- tx.included is emitted per transaction of the agreed consensus set,
before buildLCL() applies anything, so it is a superset of the accepted
ledger rather than proof of inclusion.
- the dispute.resolve query used the descendant operator, but the event is
on the consensus.update_positions span itself, so it matched nothing.
- the exhausted-retries query asked for txq_status="retried" with
retries_remaining=0, which cannot occur: the attribute is stamped before
the attempt and the retried branch only runs while retries are left.
Exhaustion is txq_status="failed" with a zero count.
- consensus_round_id is an int64, so the two queries comparing it to a
quoted string matched nothing.
- note that consensus_trace_strategy=random is experimental and not used.
- note that a trailing "| attr = value" is rejected by current Tempo;
attribute filters belong inside the braces.
consensus_trace_strategy was read as a std::string and compared against the
literal "attribute" in startRoundTracing(), while the runbook documented
"deterministic" and "random". The documented value "random" therefore fell
through to the default and did nothing.
Parse the setting once into ConsensusTraceStrategy, so the consensus code
branches on a type. The accepted spellings are now "deterministic" and
"random"; anything else fails at startup instead of silently defaulting.
The behaviour behind the old "attribute" name is unchanged and is now
reached by "random".
Document consensus_trace_strategy in xrpld-example.cfg, stating that
"random" is experimental and not used: it gives each node its own trace id,
so one round arrives as one trace per node.
Also state on the tx.included event that it covers the agreed consensus set
before the ledger is built, so it is a superset of the accepted ledger.
Two conflicts, both additive on each side.
TelemetryConfig.cpp: include blocks only. This branch added FileUtilities.h for
the certificate readability checks; upstream added <limits> and <optional> for
the bounds parser. Both kept.
The TelemetryConfig test: this branch's mutual-TLS cases and upstream's
batch-bounds cases were added at the same positions, so the file is rebuilt from
both stages and carries all 32 tests. Two shared cases were each edited by one
side only, so the edited side wins in each: upstream asserts the batch defaults
in parse_empty_section, and this branch's parse_full_section writes a real
certificate file, which is now required since the parser opens it.
One conflict, in 06-implementation-phases.md: this branch had rewritten the
phase-4 task table with a Status column, a descoping note and a Spans Produced
section, while upstream corrected the class name in the old plain table. This
branch's section is kept and the name correction re-applied to its 4.1 row.
Two review findings on the telemetry library.
SpanContext::isValid() returned impl_ != nullptr, so it answered true for a
context holding no span. threadLocalContext() wraps whatever GetCurrent()
returns, and that is an empty Context on a thread with no active span, which
contradicted the documented "invalid context if none is active". It now asks the
Context for its span. childSpan(name, ctx) is the one caller whose behaviour
changes: a context with no span used to produce a new root span, and now returns
a null guard as its @return already promised.
The three batch settings went to the OTel BatchSpanProcessor unchecked. Three
ways that failed: zero was accepted for all of them; batch_size could exceed
max_queue_size, which the SDK documents as a precondition and does not enforce;
and a mistyped value let boost::bad_lexical_cast escape, which derives from
std::bad_cast rather than std::runtime_error, so the operator saw a bare "bad
cast" naming no key. Reading unsigned also turned "-1" into 4294967295 instead
of failing, so the value is parsed signed and negatives are rejected.
xrpld-example.cfg now states the ranges.
Addresses review findings on the native-metrics work.
StatsDCollector::onTimer drained the send buffer inside the polling_ gate. That
gate holds back hook handlers until the application's services are built, but
sendBuffers() is socket I/O. StatsDEventImpl derives only from EventImpl, so it
never enters metrics_ and posts straight to the buffer; its |ms timings piled up
before onCollectionReady and were dropped after onCollectionStopping. The drain
now runs every tick, and outside metricsLock_, so onCollectionStopping no longer
waits on a UDP flush.
TelemetryImpl's constructor left meterProvider_ set when initMetrics() threw.
initMetrics publishes globally as its last step, so a throw left getMeter()
callers holding a provider nothing else could reach. Reset it in the catch.
~ApplicationImp caught only std::exception around telemetry shutdown while the
callees reach third-party SDK code, so a foreign exception would have terminated
the process. Added a logging catch-all.
ValidationTracker's hard trim evicted by unordered_map bucket order. It now
evicts oldest-first, so the entry dropped under pressure is the one least likely
to still reconcile.
The GetMeter test restored the global meter provider only on the success path,
and ASSERT_TRUE early-returns past it. Uses xrpl::ScopeExit instead.
The hook debounce window is a named constant rather than a bare 500 in a
comparison, and the metric export cadence becomes operator-configurable through
metric_export_interval_ms and metric_export_timeout_ms. Both are range-checked:
the SDK warns and silently substitutes its own 60s/30s defaults when the timeout
is not below the interval, so an unchecked value would slow export rather than
speed it up. Parsing uses a signed representation because lexical_cast<uint32_t>
accepts a leading minus and wraps it.
Naming corrections: CollectorManager documented exported_instance, which no OTel
dashboard uses; node-health queried job_count where the exported name is
jobq_job_count; network-traffic and overlay-traffic-detail referenced an
undeclared DS_PROMETHEUS variable; the counter table omitted the _total suffix
the Prometheus exporter appends; the plan docs and task list carried an xrpld_
prefix formatName never applies; and OTelCollector::New()'s contract promised its
instanceId, serviceName and networkType arguments were read, contradicting the
definition that marks them unused.
One [telemetry] key served both OTLP signals, and the metrics URL was
derived from it by suffix-swap: strip a trailing slash, strip a known
signal path if present, append the wanted one. Anything not ending
/v1/traces therefore posted metrics to the traces path, and the OTLP
version was pinned in code where an operator could not reach it.
Adds metrics_endpoint alongside traces_endpoint. Both are full URLs used
verbatim, so traces and metrics can go to different collectors, or to one
whose OTLP paths are not the defaults. signalEndpoint(), kTracesPath and
kMetricsPath are gone; nothing derives an endpoint from another.
The startup log names both URLs, since with two independent endpoints
there was otherwise no way to see where metrics were going.
Also drops exporter=otlp_http from the shipped config and the test
fixture. No branch in the chain reads an `exporter` key: it was a real
Setup member in the first phase-1b implementation, removed when only
OTLP/HTTP was wired up, and already deleted from TESTING.md once on the
same grounds.
Three conflicts, all composed rather than resolved by taking a side:
- TelemetryConfig.cpp: phase-6 kept networkTypeFromId file-local with
[[nodiscard]]; phase-7 had relocated it to public scope for
Application.cpp. Kept phase-7's relocation, so one definition remains.
The [[nodiscard]] survives on the declaration in Telemetry.h.
- Telemetry.cpp x2: phase-7 added getMeter overrides, phase-6 added
[[nodiscard]] to the startSpan below them. Kept both, and put
[[nodiscard]] on getMeter too.
- TESTING.md: phase-7 had the right metric name (span_calls_total, which
the spanmetrics namespace produces) but the wrong label. Its
xrpl.rpc.command appears nowhere else in the branch; the attribute is
bare `command`, which is what the dashboards query. Took phase-7's
metric with the correct label.
Both signalEndpoint call sites follow the renamed member. signalEndpoint
itself is left in place: removing it and adding metrics_endpoint is a
design change, not part of propagating a rename.
Two conflicts, both composed rather than taking a side.
SpanGuard.h: phase-4 added the followsFrom parameter and its @param block;
phase-3 added the @return line. Kept both.
Telemetry.cpp: phase-4 added getConsensusTraceStrategy() immediately above
getTracer()'s return type, where phase-3 added [[nodiscard]]. Kept both, in
both implementation classes.
[telemetry] endpoint carried one OTLP signal while its name implied it
covered every signal. That asymmetry is what let the metrics URL be
guessed later by rewriting this one's path suffix, so anything not
ending /v1/traces silently posted metrics to the traces path.
Renames the key to traces_endpoint and Setup::exporterEndpoint to
tracesEndpoint. The default value is unchanged and the URL is still used
verbatim, with no path derived from it. The startup log line and the
compose-file example name the new key, the latter being where an
operator copies it from.
No metrics_endpoint is added here: this branch has no metrics pipeline,
so the key would parse into a member nothing reads.
getInstance(), getTracer(), both startSpan() overloads and networkTypeFromId()
return values that a caller must use. A discarded startSpan() result destroys
the returned span immediately, so the span opens and closes with no content.
Six methods in Telemetry.h already carried the attribute, on the base and on
every override. The new attributes follow that: the overrides in Telemetry.cpp
and NullTelemetry.cpp get it too, because [[nodiscard]] is not inherited and a
call bound to the derived type would otherwise be unchecked.
No caller anywhere in the chain discards any of these results.
With telemetry enabled and use_tls=1, makeTelemetrySetup now reads each
non-empty tls_ca_cert / tls_client_cert / tls_client_key path and refuses to
start when the file is missing or cannot be read. The message names the config
key, the path and the OS error, instead of leaving the problem to surface much
later as an opaque TLS handshake failure inside the exporter.
Reading the file with getFileContents, as the gRPC server already does for its
own ssl_cert and ssl_key pair, proves the file is both present and readable; an
existence test alone would miss a permissions problem. The contents are
discarded.
Both gates are deliberate. The check is skipped when enabled is 0, so a stale
cert line still cannot stop a node from booting, and when use_tls is 0, where
the exporter never opens the files. An empty path stays valid; for tls_ca_cert
it selects the system CA store.
Six GTest cases cover the three keys that can fail, the all-readable case, and
each gate on its own.
makeTelemetrySetup() rejects a contradictory [telemetry] mutual-TLS
setup by throwing, but it is called from ApplicationImp's
member-initializer list. A try/catch in the constructor body cannot
reach a throw from there, and nothing further up the stack caught it
either, so a config mistake reached std::terminate: the default handler
printed a terminate dump and raised SIGABRT, leaving a core file
instead of a startup error.
Catch std::exception around makeApplication() in run(), report the
reason on stderr and return -1, so the failure is a clean non-zero exit
with a message an operator can act on. Only the construction is
wrapped. setup() starts subsystems whose shutdown order is delicate and
is left outside deliberately, because unwinding a half-started
Application would skip the normal stop sequence.
Gate both validation guards on enabled. A node with telemetry switched
off previously refused to start over certificate paths that nothing
would read.
Document both throws on makeTelemetrySetup(), state in
cfg/xrpld-example.cfg and the configuration reference that a partial
mutual-TLS setup is fatal and that the checks apply only when
enabled=1, and add a runbook troubleshooting entry keyed on the two
error messages.
Tests cover both guards with the message asserted so the two are told
apart, both enabled=0 paths, and the default plaintext configuration.
Bring the 5 telemetry files introduced on this branch to the enforced
house Doxygen style (/** alone, ' * ' continuation prefix, no single-line
blocks) so the check-doxygen-style hook passes under CI's --all-files run.
Comment-only: code is byte-identical after comment stripping (verified).
Also regenerate levelization results: the committed ordering.txt carried
stale 'xrpl.telemetry > xrpld.consensus/rpc' edges that the current include
graph no longer produces.

- Add PathFinding Spans section to the runbook Span Reference and
remove the incorrect "not emitted / later-phase" annotations:
pathfind.request/compute/discover/update_all are emitted since
Phase 2 (upstream of Phase 5).
- Runbook label names use the bare spanmetrics dimensions
(command, rpc_status, local, consensus_mode); fix stale docs.
- 05-configuration-reference: note tls_client_cert/key require use_tls=1.
- TelemetryConfig: reject mTLS cert paths when use_tls=0 so telemetry
is not silently sent in plaintext.

The native OTel metrics path hard-coded service.name="xrpld" and stamped
no network attribute, while traces stamped a configurable service.name
and xrpl.network.type. Metrics therefore could not be filtered by service
or network. Align the two paths:
- OTelCollector::New / OTelCollectorImp gain serviceName + networkType
params. service.name uses the configured value (default "xrpld" when
unset, preserving today's behavior); xrpl.network.type is stamped when
provided. The key is a string literal because beast/insight sits below
the telemetry module and cannot include its SpanNames const.
- CollectorManager reads service_name from [insight], falling back to the
[telemetry] value, and receives the network type from the caller.
- Application derives the network type once via the shared
telemetry::networkTypeFromId, now declared in Telemetry.h and moved out
of an anonymous namespace so the trace and metric paths reuse a single
0/1/2 -> mainnet/testnet/devnet mapping (no duplication).
Dashboards (5 system-* files): add $service_name, $deployment_environment,
$xrpl_network_type template variables and wire them into every panel query
that filters by $node.

BasicConfig.h moved from xrpl/basics/ to xrpl/config/ on develop
(PR #7095 / reorg). Phase 1b's telemetry headers still referenced the
old path, breaking a fresh compile with "BasicConfig.h: No such file or
directory". Point both telemetry includes at the new location.

Flip the tracePeer Setup default and the trace_peer config parser
default from off to on, and update the example config and build doc to
match. Peer spans record only peer_id (a node-local numeric connection
id) plus trust/ledger metadata — no IP addresses or public keys — so
the privacy concern behind disabling it does not apply. The high-volume
characteristic is retained in the docs.
