The tx.receive span is created after the duplicate check, so it carries no
suppressed attribute and a dropped copy produces no span at all. How many were
dropped is the transactions_duplicate traffic category.
The plan doc offered `"attribute"` as the alternative to `"deterministic"`
for consensus_trace_strategy. The parser accepts `"random"`; "attribute"
described the correlation mechanism rather than the setting's value. Note
also that the alternative is experimental and not used.
Review feedback on the plan documents. Four kinds of error:
- Symbols that do not exist: ConsensusProposal::prevLedger_ (it is
previousLedger_), RCLConsensusAdaptor (it is RCLConsensus::Adaptor, and
startRound() is on RCLConsensus itself), and RPCHandler::doCommand (a free
function, xrpl::rpc::doCommand).
- Attribute keys: the tables used ledger_index, which no telemetry code emits.
Same concept as ledger_seq but a different referent, so the code disambiguates
by prefix: current_ledger_seq for the open ledger a transaction targeted,
ledger_seq for a closed or validated one. A note now states which is which.
- TraceQL that does not parse: span-field predicates need braces, status.code
is not an intrinsic (status = error), and avg(duration) does not take a by
clause (avg_over_time does). All five re-tested against Tempo.
- The StatsD comparison omitted the Histogram instrument, which aggregates at
the point of measure, and the when-to-use table had no row for a metric that
spans cannot afford to carry.
Phase-1a plan documents advertised OTLP/gRPC on port 4317 as the default
exporter, four unparsed [telemetry] config keys, and "Phase 4a Complete"
status with exit-criteria checkboxes marked done. Every downstream branch
through Phase 5 ships only OTLP/HTTP on port 4318 via OtlpHttpExporterFactory,
never parses the advertised keys, and the Phase 4 work is not yet delivered.
Fixes:
- 02-design-decisions.md: flip §2.1.1 SDK dependency recommendations to
OTLP/HTTP (shipped) with OTLP/gRPC marked Future. Update §2.2 architecture
diagram and text from OTLP/gRPC:4317 to OTLP/HTTP:4318. Rewrite §2.2.1 as
"OTLP/HTTP (Shipped)" and §2.2.2 as "OTLP/gRPC (Future Work — Planned
Upgrade)" with a concrete checklist (Conan dep, config parsing, factory
branch, runbook/dashboard updates) for landing the gRPC transport later.
- 05-configuration-reference.md: drop the fabricated exporter/otlp_grpc key
and the :4317 default from the sample config block and the options-summary
table. Move trace_pathfind, trace_txq, trace_validator, trace_amendment
into a new "Planned (not yet implemented)" table citing the phase that will
add each one. Keep the example config minimal so copy-paste does not produce
a silently-ignored stanza.
- 06-implementation-phases.md: reset Phase 4 Exit Criteria checkboxes from
[x] to [ ] (Phase 4 is not shipped at Phase-1a time). Rename "Phase 4a
Complete" to "Phase 4a Plan" and describe the work as future. Replace the
broken forward link to Phase4_taskList.md (introduced in the Phase 2 PR)
with a sentence pointing readers to where that spec will land. Renumber
the final section 6.12 to 6.11 so it sits directly after 6.10; section 6.11
("Effort Summary") was intentionally removed in earlier edits.
Strip effort/risk columns from task tables and remove the §6.9 Effort
Summary section with its pie chart and resource requirements table.
Renumber §6.10 Quick Wins → §6.9.
