The three tracker files conflicted because both sides had rewritten them. Took
the incoming lock-free class, then put this branch's two monotonic accessors
back on top of it: totalAgreementsEver() and totalMissedEver(), backed by a
gross pair incremented at first classification and left alone by the repair
branch. MetricsRegistry reads both, so dropping them would not compile.
The test file kept the incoming suite, which renames every case, and gained
this branch's two gross-counter cases adapted to the injected clock.
Alloy carried no log pipeline at all: no loki.source, loki.write or
loki.process anywhere in the config, against a working metrics and OTLP path.
Any deployment fed through Alloy rather than the reference collector therefore
sent traces and metrics but no logs, so log-to-trace correlation was
unavailable there even though both ends of the link were configured.
Logs now leave through the same otlphttp exporter as the other two signals, so
all three carry one resource identity. Alloy's own filelog receiver would have
been the closest match to the reference collector, but it is still
public-preview and refuses to load unless the service is started with
--stability.level=public-preview, which would mean editing the unit on a box
reachable only by RunCommand. The Loki source components are generally
available, so they are used and bridged into OTLP by otelcol.receiver.loki;
the service needs no extra flag.
That bridge hands over an empty resource and puts everything on the log
record, so the transform sets the resource attributes in log context.
service.instance.id is concatenated in from XRPLD_HOST_LABEL because OTTL has
no env() converter, and it is a resource attribute rather than a record one
because only resource attributes are promoted to indexed Loki labels. It must
equal the node's own service_instance_id or the logs join nothing. devnet
writes one flat file rather than a per-node directory, so identity cannot be
read off the path the way the docker collector does it; XRPLD_LOG_GLOB
overrides the path for other layouts.
The line is parsed for its own timestamp, severity and trace context, and
trace_id/span_id are set on the first-class OTLP record fields so Grafana
links a log to its trace without re-parsing the body. Lines emitted outside a
sampled span keep an empty trace id rather than an invalid one.
Also carry the node-identity operators into the Grafana Cloud collector
variant, align this config's log directory with its service_instance_id, and
rename the deprecated otlphttp/filelog collector component names. Alloy's
otelcol.exporter.otlphttp is that product's own name and is unchanged.
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.
Every citation below was checked against the file it names:
- LedgerMaster.cpp:463 is fixIndex, not the ledger.store span; that guard is at
:470 and the insert it wraps at :476
- LedgerMaster.cpp:987 is the tvc assignment, which sits BEFORE the tvc < minVal
return at :988; the ledger.validate span opens at :1003
- ServerHandler.cpp:705 is inside makeJsonError; processRequest is at :718
- docker-compose.yml:71 and :75 are comments in the collector's volume block;
the loki service is at :112 and its config command at :116
Two claims were also wrong rather than merely stale. Log-trace correlation is
gated in CI, because the workflow passes no --skip-loki, and the separate check
in integration-test.sh is run by no workflow at all. The Loki label note
described the Grafana Cloud collector config rather than the local one: only the
cloud variant sets job=xrpld, and the local config's own comment says to select
on service_name. The dashboards carry 35 Loki queries, not 38.
One conflicted file, docs/telemetry-runbook.md, with three spots:
- Build section: both sides added different text at one point. Kept both,
incoming sentence first, then this branch's "Run against a live network".
- Disabling section, first spot: this branch's wording names the config
section and says no rebuild is needed, so it already covers the incoming
sentence.
- Disabling section, second spot: kept this branch's paragraph and folded in
the one point it lacked, that both flags have to be passed.
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.
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.

The parser now maps the value onto ConsensusTraceStrategy and rejects any
other spelling, so the runbook note and the Phase 4 task-list bullet both
claimed a gap that no longer exists.
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.
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.
One conflict, in 06-implementation-phases.md: this branch had rewritten the
phase-4 task table with a Status column, a descoping note and a Spans Produced
section, while upstream corrected the class name in the old plain table. This
branch's section is kept and the name correction re-applied to its 4.1 row.
One conflict, in SpanGuard.h: this branch added struct TraceBytes and upstream
added enum SpanRole at the same position after TraceCategory. Unrelated
declarations, so both are kept.
Two conflicts, both resolved by composing the sides rather than taking one.
cfg/xrpld-example.cfg: this branch had moved the batch-processor keys under
their own heading while upstream edited them in place, so a merge-both would
have documented them twice. Upstream's range sentences are applied to the
relocated block and the head-sampling note keeps its position.
02-design-decisions.md: the summary table changed on both sides for different
reasons. Upstream renamed ledger_index to current_ledger_seq and ledger_seq;
this branch had corrected the PathFinding row to the keys it actually emits.
Both are kept.
Review feedback asked for a Histogram rather than a span attribute at these two
places. Both, not either: the attribute answers how big one sampled request was,
which an aggregate cannot, and the histogram answers the distribution across all
requests, which an unsampled trace never reveals. Both attributes stay.
The metrics land here rather than with the attributes because neither
HistogramBuckets.h nor the metric macro exists on the branch that added them.
Both use kObjectCountBuckets. The argument is the floor, not the ceiling: the SDK
default edges start 0,5,10,25, so an ordinary batch of one to five falls in a
single bucket and every quantile becomes an interpolation on one edge. The object
ladder puts five edges over the mass of both distributions. Path count is bounded
at 352 by kMaxPaths times kMaxAutoSrcCur and cannot saturate. Batch size can, at
roughly 333k, but no measured traffic goes near it, so the ladder is not widened
for a range nothing occupies; the runbook records the overflow query and a test
asserts it stays readable.
tryDirectApply returns an engaged optional whenever the fee bar was cleared,
including when xrpl::apply() failed, so testing the optional labelled failures as
applied. TxQ_test's fail-in-preclaim case hits exactly this: the fee clears the
bar and preclaim then rejects with terINSUF_FEE_B.
The stamp now branches on ApplyResult::applied. A failure reports failed rather
than falling through to the default rejected, because rejected means the
transaction got nowhere, while this one cleared the fee bar and ran through
apply(). ter_code is recorded either way, so the failure is diagnosable. Both
values already existed and are used the same way by the queued-apply path in this
file, so the vocabulary is unchanged.
The value set in the phase-3 task list is updated to match, including a ter_code
row for txq.accept_tx that was already emitted but undocumented.
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.
The runbook span table, the phase-4 task list and the data reference all
conflicted: this branch had already expanded them with the open-phase,
avalanche and proposal-prefix attributes. Keep this branch's tables and
apply the close-time rename to their rows.
The close_time entry in ledger_history_mismatch_total{reason} is a metric
label value, not the span attribute, and is deliberately unchanged.
The consensus and ledger attribute tables conflicted: this branch had
already rewritten both, adding the open-phase and avalanche attributes and
correcting tx_count/tx_failed to sit on tx.apply alone. Keep this branch's
tables and apply the close-time rename to their rows, rather than taking
either side whole.
