Resolved src/libxrpl/tx/applySteps.cpp. calculateBaseFee now returns
std::expected<XRPAmount, TER>, so invokePreclaim rejects the transaction when
the fee cannot be computed. Kept that inside this branch's preclaimTer wrapper,
so the returned error also reaches the span's ter_result attribute.
CMakeLists declared option(telemetry) with a default of its own, so the setting
had two homes and they were free to disagree. The Conan option already reaches
CMake without it: conanfile.py forwards the option into the generated toolchain,
which sets the variable this file reads, and every build here goes through Conan.
Drop the option() call and keep the if(telemetry) test. docs/build/telemetry.md
told readers a CMake option had to be set as well, so that goes with it.
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.
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.
The consensus.accept.apply row listed close_time, parent_close_time and
close_time_self. The emitted keys carry the unit and epoch suffix, so
update the row to match.
The rename arrived from phase-1b by merge; the runbook still told
operators to set `endpoint`, which the parser no longer reads. Updates
the Quick Start ini block and the Configuration Reference row.
No metrics_endpoint row is added: this branch exports no metrics, so
documenting the key here would describe something the code ignores.
The table of contents in this file indexes third- and fourth-level headings,
so a new subsection that is absent from it is a gap rather than a style
choice.
Compiled out, compiled in and tracing, compiled in with no active span, and
compiled in but disabled by config all have to produce the right wire bytes,
and only two of them are obvious. Tabulate them, and record why the predicate
reads the context directly instead of calling GetSpan(), which allocates a
DefaultSpan in the no-span case.
mutable_ on a protobuf optional submessage allocates it and sets its has-bit
at the call site, before the helper can decide there is nothing to write. A
caller that dereferences it ships an empty TraceContext whenever nothing is
recorded, and its peers each take a branch to extract nothing.
Document the rule with the right and wrong forms side by side.
The conditional-compilation section promised zero overhead when telemetry is
not wanted. The span disappears, but the arguments passed to it do not: the
compiled-out guards are ordinary inline functions, so a to_string() or a hash
in an argument list still runs and its result is then discarded.
State that, show the guard that does remove the work, and name the opposite
case -- the metric macros, which discard their arguments and need no guard.
close_time_avalanche_state is new; the row also did not say that the other
three are rewritten on every convergence iteration, so a reader could not tell
that the exported value is the last one rather than a series.
This row is byte-identical on phases 5 through 10, so it is edited here and
merges forward. The consensus.phase.open row is empty until phase 9 and is
updated there instead.
Bring the three documentation surfaces in line with the new parse-time check:
- The @throws clause on makeTelemetrySetup now names the third failure
condition and records that an empty path is skipped.
- cfg/xrpld-example.cfg states, under all three TLS keys, that with enabled=1
and use_tls=1 a path that does not exist or cannot be read stops startup. The
tls_ca_cert wording still says that empty selects the system CA store, since
only a path that is set is checked.
- The runbook troubleshooting entry gains a third bullet for the "cannot be
read" message, whose remedy is the path or its permissions rather than the
certificate and key pairing.
Documentation only; no behaviour change.
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.
Add current_ledger_seq / current_ledger_hash to the tx.process, tx.receive,
and txq.enqueue span-reference rows, correct the txq.enqueue parent note
(parents to tx.process on the submission path via explicit context; a root on
the open-ledger rebuild path), and add a "Correlating a transaction to the
ledger it was worked on" recipe joining the txID-keyed tx/txq spans to the
ledger trace via current_ledger_seq.
