Give developers direct access to the full OpenTelemetry metrics API,
symmetric with getTracer(), so all seven OTel instrument types
(including UpDownCounter, sync Gauge, and the observable variants) are
reachable — not just the four beast::insight models.
- Telemetry: build and own the metrics pipeline (OTLP HTTP metric
exporter + PeriodicExportingMetricReader + SpanMetrics histogram view)
alongside the tracer, sharing the same resource attributes and TLS
config. Register it globally via metrics::Provider::SetMeterProvider
and expose Telemetry::getMeter(). Metrics enable with [telemetry];
the metrics endpoint is derived from the trace endpoint.
- beast OTelCollector: no longer owns a pipeline. It fetches the global
Meter, becoming a thin shim over the shared provider (legacy path
during beast deprecation). This also resolves the review note that the
metric exporter ignored [telemetry] use_tls — TLS now comes from the
shared telemetry pipeline.
- Add a libxrpl unit test covering getMeter() on the enabled (global
provider) and disabled (noop) paths, exercising an UpDownCounter.

- cmake: keep the opentelemetry-cpp umbrella target for the beast metrics
link and document why. The reviewer suggested linking individual
component targets to avoid over-linking, but the OTel Conan package
under-declares inter-component dependencies (the OTLP client references
sdk::common symbols without a declared edge), so naming components
directly reorders the static link into an unresolvable state. Verified
by building xrpl_tests both ways.
- OTelCollector.h: add usage examples, thread-safety and limitations
@note blocks to the class doc.
- OTelCollector.cpp: correct the @param name docs on the instrument
Impl constructors to describe the already-formatName()'d value.

Bring the hardened OTel naming check (Rule E fix + 71 tests) and the phase 1-6
convention work forward into phase 7 (native metrics).
Conflict resolution:
- 05-configuration-reference.md: kept phase-7's native-OTLP metrics story
(server=otel, /v1/metrics) over phase-6's superseded StatsD scrape job, in
prose form (no code block).
- ordering.txt/loops.txt: regenerated via generate.py (not hand-edited).

Wraps Transactor::operator() with a span that captures tx_type,
ter_result, and applied. This is the universal dispatch point — every
transaction flows through it, giving per-type latency breakdown.
Adds libxrpl.tx > xrpl.telemetry levelization dependency.

The existing code added the git commit info (`GIT_COMMIT_HASH` and `GIT_BRANCH`) to every file, which was a problem for leveraging `ccache` to cache build objects. This change adds a separate C++ file from where these compile-time variables are propagated to wherever they are needed. A new CMake file is added to set the commit info if the `git` binary is available.
This change modularizes the `WalletDB` and `Manifest`. Note that the wallet db has nothing to do with account wallets and it stores node configuration, which is why it depends on the manifest code.
In certain cases, such as when modifying headers used by many compilation units, performing a unity build is slower than when performing a regular build with `ccache` enabled. There is also a benefit to a unity build in that it can detect things such as macro redefinitions within the group of files that are compiled together as a unit. This change therefore restores the ability to perform unity builds. However, instead of running every configuration with and without unity enabled, it is now only enabled for a single configuration to maintain lower computational use.
As part of restoring the code, it became clear that currently two configurations have coverage enabled, since the check doesn't focus specifically on Debian Bookworm so it also applies to Debian Trixie. This has been fixed too in this change.
Unity builds were intended to speed up builds, by bundling multiple files into compilation units. However, now that ccache is available on all platforms, there is no need for unity builds anymore, as ccache stores compiled individual build objects for reuse. This change therefore removes the ability to make unity builds.
There were a few uninitialized variables in CMake files. This change will make sure we always check if a variable has been initialized before using them, or in come cases initialize them by default. This change will raise an error on CI if a developer introduced an uninitialized variable in CMake files.
Per [XLS-0095](https://xls.xrpl.org/xls/XLS-0095-rename-rippled-to-xrpld.html), we are taking steps to rename ripple(d) to xrpl(d).
This change modifies the binary name from `rippled` to `xrpld`, and creates a symlink named `rippled` that points to the `xrpld` binary.
Note that https://github.com/XRPLF/rippled/pull/5975 renamed any references to `rippled` in the CMake files and their contents, but explicitly maintained the `rippled` binary name by adding an exception. This change now undoes this exception and adds an explicit symlink instead.
This change removes unused definitions from the CMake files, moves variable definitions from `XrplSanity` to `XrplSettings` where they better belong, and updates the minimum GCC and Clang versions to match what we actually minimally support.
Per XLS-0095, we are taking steps to rename ripple(d) to xrpl(d).
This change updates the CMake files and definitions therein, plus a handful of related modifications. Specifically, the compiler files are renamed from `RippleXXX.cmake` or `RippledXXX.cmake` to `XrplXXX.cmake`, and any references to `ripple` and `rippled` (with or without capital letters) are renamed to `xrpl` and `xrpld`, respectively. The name of the binary, currently `rippled`, remains unchanged and will be updated in a separate PR. This change is purely cosmetic and does not affect the functioning of the binary.
