MetricsRegistry did two jobs. It owned the OTel metrics pipeline, and it
registered the observable gauges whose callbacks read live application
services. The second job is what made the whole class xrpld-tier, so the
pipeline's lifecycle -- the recording() gate and the stop() teardown that
closes a use-after-free window -- could not be unit-tested in xrpl_tests.
Split it in two:
- xrpl::telemetry::MetricsRegistry (libxrpl) owns the exporter, provider,
meter, the 16 synchronous instruments, recording(), stop(), and the
record*/increment* methods.
- xrpl::telemetry::AppMetricGauges (xrpld) owns the 19 observable gauges
and their callbacks, holding a reference to the core and to the
ServiceRegistry.
MetricMacros.h and ValidationTracker move with the core. The macros need
only recording() and meter(), both core members; the core holds a tracker
by value, and a libxrpl header cannot include one from src/.
ApplicationImp owns both objects and sequences them. The core is built in
the member-init list, so every synchronous instrument exists before any
subsystem can record one. The gauges are armed once overlay_ exists, the
last service their callbacks read. Shutdown detaches the gauge callbacks
before the core drops the provider, and each shutdown step is isolated so
a failure in one cannot skip the others.
That detach call is new. detachCallbacks() had no callers, and the flag it
sets is read by the gauge callbacks but can no longer be written by the
core, so the caller now has to make the ordering explicit.
The telemetry module links xrpl.libxrpl.core and xrpl.libxrpl.protocol
PUBLIC: ValidationTracker.h takes a LedgerIndex and MetricMacros.h takes a
ServiceRegistry, both in interfaces a consumer compiles against.
Adds a MetricsRegistry gtest that drives an enabled core with telemetry on
and pins the recording() gate, stop() leaving the registry inert, and
stop() being idempotent. The libxrpl test tree no longer depends on
xrpld.telemetry at all, and the two CMake workarounds that compiled xrpld
sources into xrpl_tests are gone.
Documentation and dashboard source links follow the code to their new
paths, split between the two classes by which one now defines each metric.
Two conflicts, both additions at the same spot:
NetworkOPs.cpp include block kept develop's rpc/detail/SyntheticFields.h
alongside this branch's telemetry/MetricsRegistry.h; .cspell.config.yaml
kept both new words.
The reference docs had drifted from the code in ways that break the reader
rather than merely misinform: PromQL examples that return no data, a rollback
flag that is a no-op, a sampling knob that does not exist, and two span parents
that moved. Code is treated as the truth throughout; where the code is the
defective side, the doc now records it as a known issue instead of describing
the bug as intent.
Renames the docs missed: histogram names gain the exporter's unit suffix
(ios_latency_milliseconds_bucket and four siblings), ledger_history_mismatch
gains _total, the StatsD-era quantile label gives way to le buckets,
rpc.request becomes rpc.http_request, traces_spanmetrics_calls_total becomes
span_calls_total, and the nine dotted xrpl.* span attributes are recorded as
renamed rather than left as live keys.
Re-parenting: consensus.update_positions and consensus.check are children of
consensus.establish, not of consensus.round.
Units and labels: state_accounting_*_duration is microseconds, not seconds;
cache_metrics label values are case-sensitive; object_count carries demangled
C++ type names. Nodestore read and write latency stays microseconds -- the
nanosecond accumulator change did not move the exported unit.
Adds what shipped but was undocumented: the ledger.acquire span, seven
consensus.round events, twelve span attributes, node_writes_duration_us, the
7-day validation-agreement window, the TxQ admission and reduce-relay metric
families, metrics_endpoint, and the phase-10 validation workflow.
Corrects claims that never held: 10% head sampling (it is fixed at 100%),
configurable redaction (it is unconditional), -DXRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=OFF
(the flag is -Dtelemetry=OFF, default ON), FindOpenTelemetry.cmake and the
xrpl_telemetry target (neither exists), Promtail and a StatsD exporter in the
pipeline (neither exists), and Loki stream selection on job= (only
service_name is a stream label).
Phase 9 is marked complete, its provisioned alerting is attributed to the
branch that shipped it, and Phase 11 stays at zero except the one prerequisite
its code closes. Counts are reconciled repo-wide: 41 emitted span families,
15 dashboards on disk with 14 asserted, 13 alert rules in 5 groups.
Hardens the gate that let this drift through: Rule E of the naming check now
covers the reference docs, its allow-dotted marker is key-scoped and warns on
stale or empty use, a missing checked file is reported instead of silently
skipped, the test suite runs in CI, and doc paths trigger the check.
C++ and CMake changes are comment-only: three MetricsRegistry instrument names,
eight OTelCollector claims of a metric-name prefix that formatName never adds,
and the telemetry option's inverted default.
Resolves src/tests/libxrpl/CMakeLists.txt test_modules by keeping both
sides: develop's beast/nodestore/protocol additions (nodestore moved into
alphabetical position) and this branch's ledger module.
State the rules so they stay consistent across code, collector, Tempo,
dashboards, and docs:
- Per-span-unique field -> bare name (the span name carries the domain).
- Same concept on more than one span -> ONE shared key, reused verbatim and
distinguished by span name, never tagged with the emitting workflow
(e.g. ledger_hash, full_validation, proposal_trusted/validation_trusted).
Defined once in the base SpanNames.h and re-exported by each domain header.
- Collision qualifier <domain>_<field> only to separate DIFFERENT concepts that
share a word, or the OTel-reserved status key (rpc_status, consensus_state).
- Dotted xrpl.<...> is reserved for resource attributes (xrpl.network.*).
Updates CONTRIBUTING.md (permanent home) and OpenTelemetryPlan §2.3.3.
Add Rule G to check_otel_naming.py: every span-attribute key must be
lower_snake_case (^[a-z][a-z0-9_]*$ per dot-separated segment). This catches
camelCase, UPPERCASE, and spaces in keys, which the structural (dotted) and
source (literal) rules did not. Document it in the script README and
CONTRIBUTING.md.

Add check_otel_naming.py and wire it into on-pr.yml so every PR validates
that span-attribute names stay consistent across the code, collector, Tempo,
dashboards, and docs.
- The valid key set is derived dynamically from the *SpanNames.h constants and
the resource attributes the code registers in Telemetry.cpp — no hardcoded
allowlist to drift.
- Each rule is presence-gated: it runs only when the file it needs is in the
tree, so the check is correct whether telemetry changes land in one PR or
several (the collector/Tempo/dashboard/runbook layers arrive in later phases).
- Rule A flags dotted span-attribute keys; Rule F flags string-literal
attribute keys and span-name arguments (values may be runtime data).
- stdlib-only, mirroring the levelization check (bare `python`, no pip step).
- Telemetry.h / SpanGuard.h @code examples now use *SpanNames.h constants so
the strict literal check passes.
- CONTRIBUTING.md documents the check and how to run it locally.

Establish the single, authoritative naming convention for OpenTelemetry
span attribute keys so the code, collector, Tempo, dashboards, and docs
stay in sync.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: new "Telemetry span attribute naming" section under
the Style guide as the permanent, canonical home for the rules.
- OpenTelemetryPlan/02-design-decisions.md: new section 2.3.3 stating the
decided convention as design, and section 2.4 attribute schema realigned
to the underscore form (exact key spelling defers to the *SpanNames.h
constants).
- Sweep the remaining plan docs: convert dotted xrpl.<domain>.<field> span
attribute keys to the underscore form; leave span names and the
OTel-standard service.*/http.* and xrpl.network.* resource keys dotted.

Now that prefixes in PR titles are being validated as part of CI, the "Type of Change" section in the PR template is no longer needed. The prefixes and descriptions in the `CONTRIBUTING.md` file have been updated to reflect the currently supported list.
This change enables all clang-tidy checks that are already passing. It also modifies the clang-tidy CI job, so it runs against all files if .clang-tidy changed.
This change cleans up the `API-CHANGELOG.md` file. It moves the version-specific documentation to other files and fleshes out the changelog with all the API-related changes in each version.
This change renames all occurrences of `namespace ripple` and `ripple::` to `namespace xrpl` and `xrpl::`, respectively, as well as the names of test suites. It also provides a script to allow developers to replicate the changes in their local branch or fork to avoid conflicts.
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.
