Addresses the open review findings on this branch.
The log root was never delivered at all. Docker creates a missing bind-mount
source as root, Config::getDebugLogFile() only warns when it cannot create the
network subdirectory inside it, and Application carries on. The node therefore
looked healthy while writing no debug.log, and Loki stayed empty with no error
at any layer. docker/telemetry/data/logs has in fact been root-owned in a
working checkout since it was first created. A one-shot xrpld-logdir-init
service now creates the directory and hands it to XRPLD_UID/XRPLD_GID,
following the pattern the storage-init service already uses.
Ingested logs carried no node identity, so a multi-node stack collapsed into
one indistinguishable stream while every dashboard filters on
service_instance_id. The receiver now sets include_file_path and lifts the
per-node directory onto the resource attribute service.instance.id, which is
on the allow-list Loki promotes to an indexed stream label. A record attribute
would only become structured metadata and could not be used in a selector.
For that to join anything the directory name has to equal the emitter's
service_instance_id, so the node directories are renamed to match: node$i
becomes Node-$i, and the standalone config writes to logs/xrpld-standalone.
The integration test aborted before reporting. Under set -o pipefail the
grep | head -1 pipeline is killed by SIGPIPE once the log exceeds the pipe
buffer, so the run exited 141 somewhere past a few hundred matching lines and
read as a flaky test. grep -m1 stops on its own. The test also verified the
local file and Tempo but never that a line reached Loki, which is the one hop
this branch adds, so a bounded Loki assertion is added alongside a readiness
wait.
Documentation fixes: the Tempo cross-check counted .data, but Tempo returns
OTLP shape so the array is batches and one trace can span several; the Loki
step used the instant /query endpoint, which rejects a bare log selector with
HTTP 400 and a text/plain body, so jq could never parse it and the step never
printed a number even when ingestion worked. The filelog comment claimed six
fractional digits where the node always emits nine. The two flowcharts used
<br/>, carried no legend, and advertised GetSpan(), which Log.cpp deliberately
avoids in favour of reading the thread-local context directly.
Finally, rename the deprecated collector component names: the pinned
collector warns on every start that otlphttp and filelog are aliases for
otlp_http and file_log. Alloy's otelcol.exporter.otlphttp and
otelcol.receiver.filelog are that product's own component names and are not
deprecated, so they are left alone.
A StatsDCollector polls its metrics only after onCollectionReady(), so
neither test flushed anything: the gauge test timed out and the counter test
passed for the wrong reason. Call it in both, and drop the two includes
whose symbols the file never names.
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.
readability-identifier-naming wants lower_case for a namespace, so
clang-tidy failed on this file under warnings-as-errors. All seven use
sites move with the declaration.
The rename script rewrites "Ripple epoch" to "XRPL epoch", so the old
spelling in a tracked .md makes the check-rename job fail on a dirty tree.
The attribute keys are left alone: the script's pattern needs a space, and
those keys are a cross-layer contract.

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.
check_statsd_metric queried rippled_rpc_requests, which no pipeline
produces: the collector's statsd receiver runs with is_monotonic_counter,
so the Prometheus exporter appends _total. A wrong name returns zero
series rather than an error, so the assertion could not be told apart
from a broken pipeline. All eight assertions were re-derived from how
each metric is created in code; this was the only counter.
Tempo searches carried no start/end, and tempo-data is a named volume
that `docker compose down` preserves under a one-hour block retention, so
the 17 span assertions could pass on an earlier local run's traces. Bound
every search to this run, and tear the stack down with -v before starting
so no earlier data is present to match. The service-name check now
matches a whole line, because the tag-values endpoint ignores start/end.
Add a gtest for the StatsD gauge that publishes its initial zero and for
the counter that must publish nothing. Assert two metrics the harness
never checked: a traffic-category gauge no message reaches, and
io_context latency.
One conflict, in docs/telemetry-runbook.md: both sides had independently
corrected the same consensus_round_id example. This branch kept the pipe form,
which Tempo rejects as a parse error; upstream moved the predicate inside the
braces, which parses and returns data. Upstream's query is kept, with this
branch's note that the value is the previous ledger sequence plus one.
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 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.
retries_remaining is stamped on the txq.accept_tx span before the
transaction is applied and before the retry counter is decremented, so a
span with txq_status="retried" always shows a non-zero count and exhaustion
shows up as txq_status="failed" with zero. The attribute comment said only
"retries left before discard", which reads as a post-decrement value and
led to a runbook query that could never match.
Also rename the drifted consensus_trace_strategy value in the plan docs
from "attribute" to "random", the spelling the parser accepts, and note that
it is experimental and not used.
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.
