8e3eabc398 refactor: Remove auto-update script and update RPM version
* refactor: Update RPM version scheme; remove auto-update script; service hardening

- **RPM version scheme**: pre-releases now use `~` in the `Version` field instead of the `0.<release>.<suffix>` `Release`-field hack. Matches Debian's `~` convention, so RPM and DEB version strings are symmetric. Requires rpm ≥ 4.10 (RHEL 9 ships 4.17).

  Before/after for a pre-release build:
  ```
  # before
  xrpld-3.2.0-0.1.rc3+202606011647.d4cb68d5.el9.x86_64.rpm

  # after (symmetric with DEB)
  xrpld-3.2.0~rc2+202606010139.7679a310-1.el9.x86_64.rpm
  xrpld_3.2.0~rc2+202606010139.7679a310-1_amd64.deb
  ```
- **Auto-update removed**: `update-xrpld`, `update-xrpld.service`, and `update-xrpld.timer` deleted. The `50-xrpld.preset` `disable` line for the timer is dropped too.
- **Service hardening** (two new `[Service]` directives in `xrpld.service`):
  - `CapabilityBoundingSet=CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE` — drops every Linux capability except `CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE`, capping the privilege ceiling to least-privilege while still letting operators bind ports <1024 (e.g. WS/HTTPS on 443).
  - `SystemCallArchitectures=native` — restricts the service to the native syscall ABI, blocking alternate-ABI (32-bit/x32) syscalls used to evade seccomp filtering.

- [ ] Build RPM from a pre-release version (e.g. `3.2.0-b1`) and confirm `rpm -qi` shows `Version: 3.2.0~b1`, `Release: 1`
- [ ] Confirm `3.2.0~b1` sorts before `3.2.0` via `rpmvercmp`
- [ ] Install package and confirm no `update-xrpld*` units appear in `systemctl list-unit-files`
- [ ] Confirm `systemctl show xrpld` reflects the new `CapabilityBoundingSet` and `SystemCallArchitectures`

* fix: Track tmpfiles-created directories in RPM %files as %ghost

# OTel naming-consistency check
`check_otel_naming.py` enforces the OpenTelemetry span-attribute naming
convention documented in
[CONTRIBUTING.md](../../../CONTRIBUTING.md#telemetry-span-attribute-naming)
across every layer of the telemetry pipeline. The `*SpanNames.h` constants are
the single source of truth (L1); every other layer must agree with them.
## Running locally
```
python .github/scripts/otel-naming/check_otel_naming.py
```
It takes no arguments, can be run from any directory inside the repo, and uses
only the Python standard library (no `pip install`, matching the levelization
check). A non-zero exit code means a violation was found; the output lists each
violation as `RULE | location | token | expected`.
## What it checks
The valid key set is **derived dynamically from the OTel code** — there is no
hardcoded allowlist:
- **L1 keys** come from the `namespace attr { ... }` blocks of every
`*SpanNames.h`, resolving the `makeStr("x")` / `join(seg::a, seg::b)` DSL
(cross-file, so `join(seg::rpc, ...)` resolves `seg::rpc` from the base
`SpanNames.h`). Each constant is resolved against **its own** header, so two
headers that define a same-named constant (e.g. a base `attr::ledgerHash` and
a domain `attr::ledgerHash`) each contribute their real wire key — a later
header cannot clobber an earlier one's value in a flat table.
- **Legitimate dotted keys** = ONLY the keys the code actually sets as resource
attributes, i.e. the entries inside `Telemetry.cpp`'s `Resource::Create({...})`
call: the `semconv::service::*` keys (`service.*`) plus any `attr::<name>`
constants passed there (`xrpl.network.*`). A dotted key that is _declared_ in a
header but never set as a resource attr is a span attribute in resource
clothing — a Rule-A violation, even if it lives in the base `SpanNames.h`.
### Rules (each fails the build, when its inputs are present)
| Rule | Check |
| ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| A | No stray dotted span-attribute key (only the derived resource keys may be dotted). |
| G | Attribute keys are `lower_snake_case` (`^[a-z][a-z0-9_]*$` per dot-segment) — no camelCase, UPPERCASE, or spaces. |
| F | No string literals as attribute keys or span-name arguments in `setAttribute`/`addEvent`/`span`/`childSpan`. Attribute _values_ are exempt (runtime data); `*SpanNames.h` definitions and test files are exempt. |
| B | Every collector `spanmetrics.dimensions` name exists in the L1 key set. |
| C | Every Tempo span-filter tag exists in the L1 key set. |
| D | Every dashboard label resolves to an L1 span attribute, a native-metric label (L6, emitted by MetricsRegistry), or a Prometheus/Grafana builtin. TraceQL scope prefixes (`span.`/`resource.`/…) are stripped before the L1 lookup. |
| E | No dotted `xrpl.<domain>.<field>` attribute key in the runbook (only the L1 resource attrs `xrpl.network.*` may be dotted). Span names, filenames, OTel-standard keys, and metric labels are not flagged. |
Rule F runs **unconditionally** (it is a purely syntactic check on the
call-sites and needs no `*SpanNames.h`), so a code path that calls
`SpanGuard::span`/`setAttribute` directly without ever defining a header is
still caught.
### Warnings (printed, never fail the build)
| Rule | Check |
| ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| H | A namespace-qualified constant (e.g. `foo::bar::myKey`) used at a telemetry call-site is not defined in any `*SpanNames.h`. The constant should live in the proper header; defining it in-place bypasses rules A/G/F. Warns rather than fails — the argument may be a legitimately dynamic value, and the header may live on a later branch. Bare locals and `std::` names are not warned. |
## Presence-gated
Every rule runs **only when the source files it needs are present** in the tree
and is otherwise skipped (printed as `SKIP: <rule> — <reason>`), never failed.
This keeps the check correct no matter how telemetry work is split across PRs —
a stacked chain, one large PR, or independent per-stage PRs where (for example)
the collector config lands before the dashboards. The collector/Tempo/dashboard/
runbook layers are introduced in later phases; on a branch without them, only
the L1-intrinsic rules (A, G, F) run.

"""
Usage: check_otel_naming.py
This script takes no parameters and can be called from any directory inside the
repository (it locates the repo root via `git rev-parse`).
Enforces the OpenTelemetry span-attribute naming convention documented in
CONTRIBUTING.md ("Telemetry span attribute naming") across every layer of the
telemetry pipeline. The `*SpanNames.h` constants are the single source of truth
(L1); every other layer must agree with them.
Design principles
-----------------
1. No hardcoded allowlist. The set of valid attribute keys — including which
dotted keys are legitimate resource attributes — is derived dynamically by
parsing the repository's own OTel code:
* `*SpanNames.h` `namespace attr { ... }` blocks (the underscore/bare keys
and the `join(seg::..., ...)` dotted resource compositions), and
* the keys the code passes to `Resource::Create({ ... })` in Telemetry.cpp
(the standard `semconv::service::*` keys -> service.name/version/...).
2. Presence-gated enforcement. Every rule runs ONLY when the source files it
needs are present in the tree, and is otherwise skipped (never failed). This
keeps the check correct no matter how work is split across PRs: a stacked
chain, one large PR, or independent per-stage PRs where (for example) the
collector config lands in a different PR than the dashboards. The check never
assumes a file from another phase/PR exists.
Layers
------
L1 code : src/**/*SpanNames.h, include/**/*SpanNames.h (ground truth)
L1 resource : src/libxrpl/telemetry/Telemetry.cpp (dotted allowlist)
L1 callsites : setAttribute/addEvent/span/childSpan in src/**, include/**
L2 collector : docker/telemetry/otel-collector-config.yaml (spanmetrics dims)
L3 tempo : docker/telemetry/tempo.yaml (span filter tags)
L4 dashboards: docker/telemetry/grafana/dashboards/*.json (PromQL labels)
L5 runbook : docs/telemetry-runbook.md (attr tables)
L6 metrics : MetricsRegistry.cpp instrument labels (native-metric
label keys, a valid dashboard-label source besides L1)
Rules (each FAILS the build, when its inputs are present)
---------------------------------------------------------
A No stray dotted span-attribute key. A dotted `<a>.<b>` used as a span
attribute that is not in the derived resource-key set is a violation.
G Attribute keys must be lower_snake_case (^[a-z][a-z0-9_]*$ per segment).
Flags camelCase, UPPERCASE, spaces, and other stray characters.
F No string literals as attribute keys or span-name arguments. The
setAttribute/addEvent key and the span/childSpan prefix/name args must
reference a *SpanNames.h constant, never a "literal". Attribute VALUES are
exempt (runtime data). Definitions inside *SpanNames.h are exempt, and
test files are exempt (they pass arbitrary literals to exercise the API).
B Every collector spanmetrics dimension exists in the L1 key set.
C Every tempo span-filter tag exists in the L1 key set.
D Every dashboard label resolves to an L1 span attribute, an L6
native-metric label, or a builtin. TraceQL `span.`/`resource.` scope
prefixes are stripped before the L1 lookup.
E No dotted `xrpl.<domain>.<field>` attribute key in the runbook (only the
L1 resource attrs xrpl.network.* may be dotted). Span names, filenames,
OTel-standard keys, and metric labels are not flagged.
Warnings (printed, but do NOT fail the build)
----------------------------------------------
H A constant referenced at a telemetry call-site is not defined in any
*SpanNames.h. Span constants should live in the corresponding
*SpanNames.h (single source of truth); defining one in-place bypasses the
naming rules. A warning (not a failure) because the argument may instead
be a legitimately dynamic local (e.g. a computed span-name leaf).
Exit code is non-zero if any present-and-enforced rule finds a violation.
Warnings never change the exit code.

## Telemetry span attribute naming
OpenTelemetry span attribute keys follow these rules so they stay consistent
across the code, the OTel collector, Tempo, Grafana dashboards, and docs. The
constants in the `*SpanNames.h` headers are the single source of truth; every
other layer must match them. A CI check enforces this end to end.
1. Per-span unique attribute: bare field name — allowed when the field is
recorded by a single span/workflow, so the span name already supplies the
domain (e.g. `command`, `local`, `version` on `rpc.command` / `tx.process`).
2. Shared attribute (same concept on more than one span): ONE key, reused
verbatim on every span that records it — the span name tells the occurrences
apart, so no per-emitter prefix is added. Pick the name by the field's
meaning: a property of a domain object keeps that object's bare field name
(`ledger_hash`, `ledger_seq`, `tx_hash`, `peer_id`, `full_validation`); a
field already qualified by a sub-kind keeps that qualifier on every emitter
(`proposal_trusted` on both `consensus.proposal.receive` and
`peer.proposal.receive`; `validation_trusted` likewise). Define it once in
the base `SpanNames.h` `namespace attr` block and re-export (`using`) it from
each domain header, so all emitters share the exact string.
3. Collision qualifier: `<domain>_<field>` — only when a bare name would collide
with a DIFFERENT concept in the shared spanmetrics label space, or with the
OTel-reserved `status` key (e.g. `rpc_status`, `grpc_status`,
`consensus_state`, `consensus_round`). This disambiguates distinct concepts
that share a word; it is NOT used to tag the same concept with the workflow
that emitted it — that is rule 2 (one shared name).
4. Resource attribute: dotted `xrpl.<subsystem>.<field>` — reserved ONLY for
process/network identity set once at startup (`xrpl.network.id`,
`xrpl.network.type`). Never use the dotted `xrpl.` form for span attributes.
5. Span names use `<subsystem>[.<component>]` (dotted). Only attribute _keys_
follow rules 14.
All attribute keys are `lower_snake_case` (lowercase letters, digits, and
underscores; each dot-separated segment of a resource key likewise). No
camelCase, uppercase, or spaces.
Standard OpenTelemetry semantic-convention keys keep their canonical dotted
form (e.g. `service.*` resource attributes, `http.*` span attributes); the
"no dotted form" rule above applies to xrpl-custom keys, not to OTel-standard
conventions.
Always reference the `*SpanNames.h` constants for attribute keys and span
names — never pass a string literal as a key or as a `span`/`childSpan` name
argument. (Attribute _values_ may be runtime data.)
These rules are enforced by `.github/scripts/otel-naming/check_otel_naming.py`,
run in CI on every pull request. The check derives the set of valid keys
directly from the `*SpanNames.h` constants and the resource attributes the code
registers, so there is no separate list to keep in sync. It cross-validates the
collector, Tempo, dashboards, and docs against those keys, and each rule runs
only when the file it needs is present — so it works whether telemetry changes
land in one pull request or several. Run it locally with:
```
python .github/scripts/otel-naming/check_otel_naming.py
```
See [.github/scripts/otel-naming/README.md](.github/scripts/otel-naming/README.md)

## What is Distributed Tracing?
Distributed tracing is a method for tracking data objects as they flow through distributed systems. In a network like XRP Ledger, a single transaction touches multiple independent nodes—each with no shared memory or logging. Distributed tracing connects these dots.
**Without tracing:** You see isolated logs on each node with no way to correlate them.
**With tracing:** You see the complete journey of a transaction or an event across all nodes it touched.
---
## Actors and Actions at a Glance
### Actors
| Who (Plain English) | Technical Term |
| ---------------------------------------------- | --------------- |
| A single unit of work being tracked | Span |
| The complete journey of a request | Trace |
| Data that links spans across services | Trace Context |
| Code that creates spans and propagates context | Instrumentation |
| Service that receives and processes traces | Collector |
| Storage and visualization system | Backend (Tempo) |
| Decision logic for which traces to keep | Sampler |
### Actions
| What Happens (Plain English) | Technical Term |
| --------------------------------------- | ----------------------- |
| Start tracking a new operation | Create a Span |
| Connect a child operation to its parent | Set `parent_span_id` |
| Group all related operations together | Share a `trace_id` |
| Pass tracking data between services | Context Propagation |
| Decide whether to record a trace | Sampling (Head or Tail) |
| Send completed traces to storage | Export (OTLP) |
---
## Core Concepts
### 1. Trace
A **trace** represents the entire journey of a request through the system. It has a unique `trace_id` that stays constant across all nodes.
```
Trace ID: abc123
├── Node A: received transaction
├── Node B: relayed transaction
├── Node C: included in consensus
└── Node D: applied to ledger
```
### 2. Span
A **span** represents a single unit of work within a trace. Each span has:
| Attribute | Description | Example |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `trace_id` | Identifies the trace | `event123` |
| `span_id` | Unique identifier | `span456` |
| `parent_span_id` | Parent span (if any) | `p_span123` |
| `name` | Operation name | `rpc.submit` |
| `start_time` | When work began (local time) | `2024-01-15T10:30:00Z` |
| `end_time` | When work completed (local time) | `2024-01-15T10:30:00.050Z` |
| `attributes` | Key-value metadata | `tx_hash=ABC...` |
| `status` | OK, ERROR MSG | `OK` |
### 3. Trace Context
**Trace context** is the data that propagates between services to link spans together. It contains:
- `trace_id` - The trace this span belongs to
- `span_id` - The current span (becomes parent for child spans)
- `trace_flags` - Sampling decisions
---
## How Spans Form a Trace
Spans have parent-child relationships forming a tree structure:

```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **tx.submit (blue, root)**: The top-level span representing the entire transaction submission; all other spans are its descendants.
- **tx.validate, tx.relay, tx.apply (green)**: Direct children of tx.submit, representing the three main stages -- validation, relay to peers, and application to the ledger.
- **ledger.update (red)**: A grandchild span nested under tx.apply, representing the actual ledger state mutation triggered by applying the transaction.
- **Arrows (parent to child)**: Each arrow indicates a parent-child span relationship where the parent's completion depends on the child finishing.
The same trace visualized as a **timeline (Gantt chart)**:
```

## Span Relationships
Spans don't always form simple parent-child trees. Distributed tracing defines several relationship types to capture different causal patterns:
### 1. Parent-Child (ChildOf)
The default relationship. The parent span **depends on** or **contains** the child span. The child runs within the scope of the parent.
```
tx.submit (parent)
├── tx.validate (child) ← parent waits for this
├── tx.relay (child) ← parent waits for this
└── tx.apply (child) ← parent waits for this
```
**When to use:** Synchronous calls, nested operations, any case where the parent's completion depends on the child.
### 2. Follows-From
A causal relationship where the first span **triggers** the second, but does **not wait** for it. The originator fires and moves on.
```
Time →
tx.receive [=======]
↓ triggers (follows-from)
tx.relay [===========] ← runs independently
```
**When to use:** Asynchronous jobs, queued work, fire-and-forget patterns. For example, a node receives a transaction and queues it for relay — the relay span _follows from_ the receive span but the receiver doesn't wait for relaying to complete.
> **OpenTracing** defined `FollowsFrom` as a first-class reference type alongside `ChildOf`.
> **OpenTelemetry** represents this using **Span Links** with descriptive attributes instead (see below).
### 3. Span Links (Cross-Trace and Non-Hierarchical)
Links connect spans that are **causally related but not in a parent-child hierarchy**. Unlike parent-child, links can cross trace boundaries.
```
Trace A Trace B
────── ──────
batch.schedule batch.execute
├─ item.enqueue (span X) ┌──► process.item
├─ item.enqueue (span Y) ───┤ (links to X, Y, Z)
├─ item.enqueue (span Z) └──►
```
**Use cases:**
| Pattern | Description |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Batch processing** | A batch span links back to all individual spans that contributed to it |
| **Fan-in** | An aggregation span links to the multiple producer spans it merges |
| **Fan-out** | Multiple downstream spans link back to the single span that triggered them |
| **Async handoff** | A deferred job links back to the request that queued it (follows-from) |
| **Cross-trace** | Correlating spans across independent traces (e.g., retries, related events) |
**Link structure:** Each link carries the target span's context plus optional attributes:
```
Link {
trace_id: <target trace>
span_id: <target span>
attributes: { "link.description": "triggered by batch scheduler" }
}
```

| ---------------- | ----------- | -------------------------- | ----------------- |
| **Parent-Child** | Yes | Parent depends on child | `parent_span_id` |

---
## Trace ID Generation
A `trace_id` is a 128-bit (16-byte) identifier that groups all spans belonging to one logical operation. How it's generated determines how easily you can find and correlate traces later.
### General Approaches
#### 1. Random (W3C Default)
Generate a random 128-bit ID when a trace starts. Standard approach for most services.
```
trace_id = random_128_bits()
```
| Pros | Cons |
| --------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
| Simple, standard | No natural correlation to domain events |
| Guaranteed unique per trace | If propagation is lost, trace is broken |
| Works with all OTel tooling | "Find trace for TX abc" requires index lookup |
#### 2. Deterministic (Derived from Domain Data)
Compute the trace_id from a hash of a natural identifier. Every node independently derives the **same** trace_id for the same event.
```
trace_id = SHA-256(domain_identifier)[0:16] // truncate to 128 bits
```
| Pros | Cons |
| --------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| Propagation-resilient — same ID computed everywhere | Same event processed twice (retry) shares trace_id |
| Natural search — domain ID maps directly to trace | Non-standard (tooling assumes random) |
| No coordination needed between nodes | 256→128 bit truncation (collision risk negligible at ~2⁶⁴) |
#### 3. Hybrid (Deterministic Prefix + Random Suffix)
First 8 bytes derived from domain data, last 8 bytes random.
```
trace_id = SHA-256(domain_identifier)[0:8] || random_64_bits()
```
| Pros | Cons |
| ------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| Prefix search: "find all traces for TX abc" | Must propagate to maintain full trace_id |
| Unique per processing instance | More complex generation logic |
| Retries get distinct trace_ids | Partial correlation only (prefix match) |
### XRPL Workflow Analysis
XRPL has a unique advantage: its core workflows produce **globally unique 256-bit hashes** that are known on every node. This makes deterministic trace_id generation practical in ways most systems can't achieve.
#### Natural Identifiers by Workflow
| Workflow | Natural Identifier | Size | Known at Start? | Same on All Nodes? |
| ------------------- | --------------------------------- | ---------- | ----------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| **Transaction** | Transaction hash (`tid_`) | 256-bit | Yes — computed before signing | Yes — hash of canonical tx data |
| **Consensus round** | Previous ledger hash + ledger seq | 256+32 bit | Yes — known when round opens | Yes — all validators agree |
| **Validation** | Ledger hash being validated | 256-bit | Yes — from consensus result | Yes — same closed ledger |
| **Ledger catch-up** | Target ledger hash | 256-bit | Yes — we know what to fetch | Yes — identifies ledger globally |
#### Where These Identifiers Live in Code
```
Transaction: STTx::getTransactionID() → uint256 tid_
TMTransaction::rawTransaction → recompute hash from bytes
Consensus: ConsensusProposal::prevLedger_ → uint256 (previous ledger hash)
ConsensusProposal::position_ → uint256 (TxSet hash)
LedgerHeader::seq → uint32_t (ledger sequence)
Validation: STValidation::getLedgerHash() → uint256
STValidation::getNodeID() → NodeID (160-bit)
Ledger fetch: InboundLedger constructor → uint256 hash, uint32_t seq
TMGetLedger::ledgerHash → bytes (uint256)
```
### Recommended Strategy: Workflow-Scoped Deterministic
Each workflow type derives its trace_id from its natural domain identifier:
```
Transaction trace: trace_id = SHA-256("tx" || tx_hash)[0:16]
Consensus trace: trace_id = SHA-256("cons" || prev_ledger_hash || ledger_seq)[0:16]
Ledger catch-up: trace_id = SHA-256("fetch" || target_ledger_hash)[0:16]
```
The string prefix (`"tx"`, `"cons"`, `"fetch"`) prevents collisions between workflows that might share underlying hashes.
**Why this works for XRPL:**
1. **Propagation-resilient** — Even if a P2P message drops trace context, every node independently computes the same trace_id from the same tx_hash or ledger_hash. Spans still correlate.
2. **Zero-cost search** — "Show me the trace for transaction ABC" becomes a direct lookup: compute `SHA-256("tx" || ABC)[0:16]` and query. No secondary index needed.
3. **Cross-workflow linking via Span Links** — A consensus trace links to individual transaction traces. A validation span links to the consensus trace. This connects the full picture without forcing everything into one giant trace.
### Cross-Workflow Correlation
Each workflow gets its own trace. Span Links tie them together:

**Reading the diagram:**
- **Transaction Trace (blue)**: An independent trace whose `trace_id` is deterministically derived from the transaction hash. Contains receive, validate, and relay spans.
- **Consensus Trace (green)**: An independent trace whose `trace_id` is derived from the previous ledger hash and sequence number. Covers the open, propose, and accept phases.
- **Validation (red)**: Validation spans live within the consensus trace (not a separate trace). They are created after the accept phase completes.
- **Catch-Up Trace (purple)**: An independent trace for ledger acquisition, derived from the target ledger hash. Used when a node is behind and fetching missing ledgers.
- **Dotted arrows (span links)**: Cross-trace correlations. Consensus links to transaction traces it included; catch-up links to the consensus trace that produced the target ledger.
- **Solid arrow (C3 to V1)**: A parent-child relationship -- validation spans are direct children of the consensus accept span within the same trace.
**How a query flows:**
```
"Why was TX abc slow?"
1. Compute trace_id = SHA-256("tx" || abc)[0:16]
2. Find transaction trace → see it was included in consensus round N
3. Follow span link → consensus trace for round N
4. See which phase was slow (propose? accept?)
5. If a node was catching up, follow link → catch-up trace
```
### Trade-offs to Consider
| Concern | Mitigation |
| ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Retries get same trace_id** | Add `attempt` attribute to root span; spans have unique span_ids and timestamps |
| **256→128 bit truncation** | Birthday-bound collision at ~2⁶⁴ operations — negligible for XRPL's throughput |
| **Non-standard generation** | OTel spec allows any 16-byte non-zero value; tooling works on the hex string |
| **Hash computation cost** | SHA-256 is ~0.3μs per call; XRPL already computes these hashes for other purposes |
| **Late-binding identifiers** | Ledger hash isn't known until after consensus — validation spans use ledger_seq as fallback, then link to the consensus trace |
---
## Distributed Traces Across Nodes
In distributed systems like xrpld, traces span **multiple independent nodes**. The trace context must be propagated in network messages:
```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
participant Client
participant NodeA as Node A
participant NodeB as Node B
participant NodeC as Node C
Client->>NodeA: Submit TX<br/>(no trace context)
Note over NodeA: Creates new trace<br/>trace_id: abc123<br/>span: tx.receive
NodeA->>NodeB: Relay TX<br/>(trace_id: abc123, parent: 001)
Note over NodeB: Creates child span<br/>span: tx.relay<br/>parent_span_id: 001
NodeA->>NodeC: Relay TX<br/>(trace_id: abc123, parent: 001)
Note over NodeC: Creates child span<br/>span: tx.relay<br/>parent_span_id: 001
Note over NodeA,NodeC: All spans share trace_id: abc123<br/>enabling correlation across nodes
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Client**: The external entity that submits a transaction. It does not carry trace context -- the trace originates at the first node.
- **Node A**: The entry point that creates a new trace (trace_id: abc123) and the root span `tx.receive`. It relays the transaction to peers with trace context attached.
- **Node B and Node C**: Peer nodes that receive the relayed transaction along with the propagated trace context. Each creates a child span under Node A's span, preserving the same `trace_id`.
- **Arrows with trace context**: The relay messages carry `trace_id` and `parent_span_id`, allowing each downstream node to link its spans back to the originating span on Node A.
---
## Context Propagation
For traces to work across nodes, **trace context must be propagated** in messages.
### What's in the Context (~26 bytes)
| Field | Size | Description |
| ------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| `trace_id` | 16 bytes | Identifies the entire trace (constant across all nodes) |
| `span_id` | 8 bytes | The sender's current span (becomes parent on receiver) |
| `trace_flags` | 1 byte | Sampling decision (bit 0 = sampled; bits 1-7 reserved) |
| `trace_state` | variable | Optional vendor-specific data (typically omitted) |
### How span_id Changes at Each Hop
Only **one** `span_id` travels in the context - the sender's current span. Each node:
1. Extracts the received `span_id` and uses it as the `parent_span_id`
2. Creates a **new** `span_id` for its own span
3. Sends its own `span_id` as the parent when forwarding
```
Node A Node B Node C
────── ────── ──────
Span AAA Span BBB Span CCC
│ │ │
▼ ▼ ▼
Context out: Context out: Context out:
├─ trace_id: abc123 ├─ trace_id: abc123 ├─ trace_id: abc123
├─ span_id: AAA ──────────► ├─ span_id: BBB ──────────► ├─ span_id: CCC ──────►
└─ flags: 01 └─ flags: 01 └─ flags: 01
│ │
parent = AAA parent = BBB
```
The `trace_id` stays constant, but `span_id` **changes at every hop** to maintain the parent-child chain.
### Propagation Formats
There are two patterns:
### HTTP/RPC Headers (W3C Trace Context)
```
traceparent: 00-4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736-00f067aa0ba902b7-01
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ └── Flags (sampled)
│ │ └── Parent span ID (16 hex)
│ └── Trace ID (32 hex)
└── Version
```
### Protocol Buffers (xrpld P2P messages)
xrpld P2P messages such as `TMTransaction` carry the trace context in two added byte fields alongside the existing payload: `trace_parent` holds the W3C traceparent (`trace_id`, `span_id`, and `trace_flags`), and `trace_state` holds the optional W3C tracestate. Together they propagate the trace across the P2P boundary so a receiving node can attach its spans to the sender's span.
---
## Sampling
Not every trace needs to be recorded. **Sampling** reduces overhead:
### Head Sampling (at trace start)
```
Request arrives → Random N% chance → Record or skip entire trace
```
- ✅ Low overhead
- ❌ May miss interesting traces
> **xrpld note**: xrpld intentionally fixes head sampling at 100% (sample
> everything) and does not expose a configurable ratio. A per-node ratio
> would let different nodes make divergent keep/drop decisions for the same
> distributed trace, producing broken/partial traces. xrpld uses a
> `ParentBased` sampler so spans with a remote parent honor the upstream
> decision. Volume reduction is delegated to collector-side tail sampling.
### Tail Sampling (after trace completes)
```
Trace completes → Collector evaluates:
- Error? → KEEP
- Slow? → KEEP
- Normal? → Sample 10%
```
- ✅ Never loses important traces
- ❌ Higher memory usage at collector
---
## Key Benefits for xrpld
| Challenge | How Tracing Helps |
| ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| "Where is my transaction?" | Follow trace across all nodes it touched |
| "Why was consensus slow?" | See timing breakdown of each phase |
| "Which node is the bottleneck?" | Compare span durations across nodes |
| "What happened during the outage?" | Correlate errors across the network |
---

## 1.1 Current xrpld Architecture Overview
> **WS** = WebSocket | **UNL** = Unique Node List | **TxQ** = Transaction Queue | **StatsD** = Statistics Daemon
The xrpld node software consists of several interconnected components that need instrumentation for distributed tracing:

style appservices fill:#6a1b9a,stroke:#4a148c,color:#ffffff
style observability fill:#e65100,stroke:#bf360c,color:#ffffff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Core Services (blue)**: The entry points into xrpld -- RPC Server handles client requests, Overlay manages peer-to-peer networking, Consensus drives agreement, and ValidatorList manages trusted validators.
- **JobQueue (center)**: The asynchronous thread pool that decouples Core Services from the Processing and Application layers. All work flows through it.
- **Processing Layer (green)**: Core business logic -- NetworkOPs processes transactions, LedgerMaster manages ledger state, NodeStore handles persistence, and InboundLedgers synchronizes missing data.
- **Application Services (purple)**: Higher-level features -- PathFinding computes payment routes, TxQ manages fee-based queuing, and LoadManager tracks server load.
- **Existing Observability (orange)**: The current monitoring stack (PerfLog, Insight, Journal logging) that OpenTelemetry will complement, not replace.
- **Arrows (Services to JobQueue to layers)**: Work originates at Core Services, is enqueued onto the JobQueue, and dispatched to Processing or Application layers for execution.

## 1.3 Transaction Flow Diagram
Transaction flow spans multiple nodes in the network. Each node creates linked spans to form a distributed trace:
```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
participant Client
participant PeerA as Peer A (Receive)
participant PeerB as Peer B (Relay)
participant PeerC as Peer C (Validate)
Client->>PeerA: 1. Submit TX
rect rgb(230, 245, 255)
Note over PeerA: tx.receive SPAN START
PeerA->>PeerA: HashRouter Deduplication
PeerA->>PeerA: tx.validate (child span)
end
PeerA->>PeerB: 2. Relay TX (with trace ctx)
rect rgb(230, 245, 255)
Note over PeerB: tx.receive (linked span)
end
PeerB->>PeerC: 3. Relay TX
rect rgb(230, 245, 255)
Note over PeerC: tx.receive (linked span)
PeerC->>PeerC: tx.process
end
Note over Client,PeerC: DISTRIBUTED TRACE (same trace_id: abc123)
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Client**: The external entity that submits a transaction to Peer A. It has no trace context -- the trace starts at the first node.
- **Peer A (Receive)**: The entry node that creates the root span `tx.receive`, runs HashRouter deduplication to avoid processing duplicates, and creates a child `tx.validate` span.
- **Peer A to Peer B arrow**: The relay message carries trace context (trace_id + parent span_id), enabling Peer B to create a linked span under the same trace.
- **Peer B (Relay)**: Receives the transaction and trace context, creates a `tx.receive` span linked to Peer A's trace, then relays onward.
- **Peer C (Validate)**: Final hop in this example. Creates a linked `tx.receive` span and runs `tx.process` to fully process the transaction.
- **Blue rectangles**: Highlight the span boundaries on each node, showing where instrumentation creates and closes spans.
### Trace Structure
```
trace_id: abc123
├── span: tx.receive (Peer A)
│ ├── span: tx.validate
│ └── span: tx.relay
├── span: tx.receive (Peer B) [parent: Peer A]
│ └── span: tx.relay
└── span: tx.receive (Peer C) [parent: Peer B]
└── span: tx.process
```
---
## 1.4 Consensus Round Flow
Consensus rounds are multi-phase operations that benefit significantly from tracing:
```mermaid
flowchart TB
subgraph round["consensus.round (root span)"]
attrs["Attributes:<br/>ledger_seq = 12345678<br/>consensus_mode = proposing<br/>proposers = 35"]
subgraph open["consensus.phase.open"]
open_desc["Duration: ~3s<br/>Waiting for transactions"]
end
subgraph establish["consensus.phase.establish"]
est_attrs["proposals_received = 28<br/>disputes_resolved = 3"]
est_children["├── consensus.proposal.receive (×28)<br/>├── consensus.proposal.send (×1)<br/>└── consensus.dispute.resolve (×3)"]
end
subgraph accept["consensus.phase.accept"]
acc_attrs["transactions_applied = 150<br/>ledger_hash = DEF456..."]
acc_children["├── ledger.build<br/>└── ledger.validate"]
end
attrs --> open
open --> establish
establish --> accept
end
style round fill:#f57f17,stroke:#e65100,color:#ffffff
style open fill:#1565c0,stroke:#0d47a1,color:#ffffff
style establish fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#ffffff
style accept fill:#c2185b,stroke:#880e4f,color:#ffffff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **consensus.round (orange, root span)**: The top-level span encompassing the entire consensus round, with attributes like ledger sequence, mode, and proposer count.
- **consensus.phase.open (blue)**: The first phase where the node waits (~3s) to collect incoming transactions before proposing.
- **consensus.phase.establish (green)**: The negotiation phase where validators exchange proposals, resolve disputes, and converge on a transaction set. Child spans track each proposal received/sent and each dispute resolved.
- **consensus.phase.accept (pink)**: The final phase where the agreed transaction set is applied, a new ledger is built, and the ledger is validated. Child spans cover `ledger.build` and `ledger.validate`.
- **Arrows (open to establish to accept)**: The sequential flow through the three consensus phases. Each phase must complete before the next begins.
---
## 1.5 RPC Request Flow
> **WS** = WebSocket
RPC requests support W3C Trace Context headers for distributed tracing across services:
```mermaid
flowchart TB
subgraph request["rpc.request (root span)"]
http["HTTP Request — POST /<br/>traceparent:<br/>00-abc123...-def456...-01"]
attrs["Attributes:<br/>http.method = POST<br/>net.peer.ip = 192.168.1.100<br/>command = submit"]
subgraph enqueue["jobqueue.enqueue"]
job_attr["job_type = jtCLIENT_RPC"]
end
subgraph command["rpc.command.submit"]
cmd_attrs["version = 2<br/>rpc_role = user"]
cmd_children["├── tx.deserialize<br/>├── tx.validate_local<br/>└── tx.submit_to_network"]
end
response["Response: 200 OK<br/>Duration: 45ms"]
http --> attrs
attrs --> enqueue
enqueue --> command
command --> response
end
style request fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#ffffff
style enqueue fill:#1565c0,stroke:#0d47a1,color:#ffffff
style command fill:#e65100,stroke:#bf360c,color:#ffffff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **rpc.request (green, root span)**: The outermost span representing the full RPC request lifecycle, from HTTP receipt to response. Carries the W3C `traceparent` header for distributed tracing.
- **HTTP Request node**: Shows the incoming POST request with its `traceparent` header and extracted attributes (method, peer IP, command name).
- **jobqueue.enqueue (blue)**: The span covering the asynchronous handoff from the RPC thread to the JobQueue worker thread. The trace context is preserved across this async boundary.
- **rpc.command.submit (orange)**: The span for the actual command execution, with child spans for deserialization, local validation, and network submission.
- **Response node**: The final output with HTTP status and total duration, marking the end of the root span.
- **Arrows (top to bottom)**: The sequential processing pipeline -- receive request, extract attributes, enqueue job, execute command, return response.
---

### 1.8.4 Operator Actionable Insights
| Scenario | What You'll See | Action |
| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **Slow RPC** | Span showing which phase is slow (parsing, execution, serialization) | Optimize specific code path |
| **Transaction Stuck** | Trace stops at validation; error attribute shows reason | Fix transaction parameters |
| **Consensus Delay** | Phase.establish taking too long; proposer attribute shows missing validators | Investigate network connectivity |
| **Memory Spike** | Large batch of spans correlating with memory increase | Tune batch_size or sampling |
| **Network Partition** | Traces missing cross-node links for specific peer | Check peer connectivity |
| **Path Computation Slow** | pathfind.compute span shows high latency; cache miss rate in attributes | Warm the RippleLineCache, check order book depth |
| **TxQ Full** | txq.enqueue spans show evictions; fee.escalate spans increasing | Monitor fee levels, alert operators |
| **Ledger Sync Stalled** | ledger.acquire spans timing out; peer reliability attributes show issues | Check peer connectivity, add trusted peers |
| **UNL Stale** | validator.list.fetch spans failing; last_update attribute aging | Verify validator site URLs, check DNS |
### 1.8.5 Developer Debugging Workflow
1. **Find Transaction**: Query by `tx_hash` to get full trace
2. **Identify Bottleneck**: Look at span durations to find slowest component
3. **Check Attributes**: Review `validity`, `rpc_status` for errors
4. **Correlate Logs**: Use `trace_id` to find related PerfLog entries
5. **Compare Nodes**: Filter by `service.instance.id` to compare behavior across nodes

## 2.1 OpenTelemetry Components
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
### 2.1.1 SDK Selection
**Primary Choice**: OpenTelemetry C++ SDK (`opentelemetry-cpp`)
| Component | Purpose | Required |
| --------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------- |
| `opentelemetry-cpp::api` | Tracing API headers | Yes |
| `opentelemetry-cpp::sdk` | SDK implementation | Yes |
| `opentelemetry-cpp::ext` | Extensions (exporters) | Yes |
| `opentelemetry-cpp::otlp_http_exporter` | OTLP/HTTP export | Yes (shipped in Phase 1b) |
| `opentelemetry-cpp::otlp_grpc_exporter` | OTLP/gRPC export | Future (not yet wired up) |
### 2.1.2 Instrumentation Strategy
**Manual Instrumentation** (recommended):
| Approach | Pros | Cons |
| ---------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Manual** | Precise control, optimized placement, xrpld-specific attributes | More development effort |
| **Auto** | Less code, automatic coverage | Less control, potential overhead, limited customization |

**Reading the diagram:**
- **xrpld Nodes (blue)**: The source of telemetry data. Each xrpld node exports spans via OTLP/HTTP on port 4318 (the only exporter shipped in Phase 1b).
- **OpenTelemetry Collector (red)**: The central aggregation point that receives spans from all nodes. Can run as a sidecar (per-node) or standalone (shared). Handles batching, filtering, and routing.
- **Observability Backends (green)**: The storage and visualization destinations. Tempo is the recommended backend for both development and production, and Elastic APM is an alternative. The Collector routes to one or more backends.
- **Arrows (nodes to collector to backends)**: The data pipeline -- spans flow from nodes to the Collector over HTTP, then the Collector fans out to the configured backends.
### 2.2.1 OTLP/HTTP (Shipped in Phase 1b)
OTLP/HTTP is the only exporter wired up in Phase 1b. It is configured via
`OtlpHttpExporterOptions` with the collector traces endpoint
(`http://localhost:4318/v1/traces` by default) and a JSON content type
(binary protobuf is also available).
### 2.2.2 OTLP/gRPC (Future Work — Planned Upgrade)
OTLP/gRPC is planned as a future upgrade from the HTTP exporter. The gRPC
transport offers lower per-span overhead and tighter back-pressure semantics
than HTTP/JSON, making it attractive for production deployments once the HTTP
path is validated in earlier phases.
Required to land this upgrade:
1. Add `opentelemetry-cpp::otlp_grpc_exporter` to the Conan recipe (the
dependency already exists but is not linked in Phase 1b builds).
2. Extend `TelemetryConfig.cpp` to parse an `exporter` key (`otlp_http`
default, `otlp_grpc` opt-in) and a gRPC endpoint override.
3. In `Telemetry::start()` branch on the parsed exporter type and construct
either `OtlpHttpExporterFactory::Create(httpOpts)` or
`OtlpGrpcExporterFactory::Create(grpcOpts)` accordingly.
4. Update the runbook and dashboards to document the alternate port and TLS
settings.
When wired up, the gRPC path will use `OtlpGrpcExporterOptions` configured with
the collector endpoint (host on port 4317), TLS credentials enabled, and a CA
certificate path.
Until that work lands, `OtlpGrpcExporterOptions` is **not** used by any code
path in Phase 1b through Phase 5.

## 2.3 Span Naming Conventions
> **TxQ** = Transaction Queue | **UNL** = Unique Node List | **WS** = WebSocket

```
<component>.<operation>[.<sub-operation>]
```
**Examples**:
- `tx.receive` - Transaction received from peer
- `consensus.phase.establish` - Consensus establish phase

### 2.3.3 Attribute Naming Conventions
Span **names** follow §2.3.1 (dotted `<component>.<operation>`). Span
**attribute keys** follow the rules below. The constants in the `*SpanNames.h`
headers are the single source of truth; the collector, Tempo, the Grafana
dashboards, and the runbook all consume these exact keys, so every layer must
agree with the code. A CI check enforces this end to end.
1. **Per-span unique attribute** → bare field name, allowed when the field is
recorded by a single span/workflow so the span name already supplies the
domain (e.g. `command`, `version`, `local` on `rpc.command`).
2. **Shared attribute (same concept on more than one span)** → ONE key, reused
verbatim on every span that records it; the span name tells the occurrences
apart, so no per-emitter prefix is added. Name it by the field's meaning: a
property of a domain object keeps that object's bare field name (`ledger_hash`,
`ledger_seq`, `tx_hash`, `peer_id`, `full_validation`); a field already
qualified by a sub-kind keeps that qualifier on every emitter (`proposal_trusted`
on both `consensus.proposal.receive` and `peer.proposal.receive`;
`validation_trusted` likewise). Defined once in the base `SpanNames.h`
`namespace attr` block and re-exported (`using`) by each domain header.
3. **Collision qualifier**`<domain>_<field>`, only when a bare name would
collide with a DIFFERENT concept in the shared spanmetrics label space or with
the OTel-reserved `status` key (e.g. `rpc_status`, `grpc_status`,
`consensus_state`, `consensus_round`, `consensus_mode`). This disambiguates
distinct concepts that share a word; it is NOT used to tag the same concept
with its emitting workflow — that is rule 2 (one shared name).
4. **Resource attribute** → dotted `xrpl.<subsystem>.<field>`, reserved ONLY
for process/network identity set once at startup (`xrpl.network.id`,
`xrpl.network.type`). Span attributes are never dotted in the `xrpl.` form —
it blurs the resource/span scope boundary and parses awkwardly in TraceQL.
5. **Span names** use `<subsystem>[.<component>]` (dotted, per §2.3.1). Only
attribute _keys_ follow rules 14.
Standard OpenTelemetry semantic-convention keys keep their canonical dotted
form (e.g. `service.*` resource attributes, `http.*` span attributes); the
"no dotted form" rule applies to xrpl-custom keys only.
The same rules are recorded in `CONTRIBUTING.md` (the permanent home, since
`OpenTelemetryPlan/` is removed once the rollout completes). The attribute
examples in §2.4 below follow these rules.

## 2.4 Attribute Schema
> **TxQ** = Transaction Queue | **UNL** = Unique Node List | **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
### 2.4.1 Resource Attributes (Set Once at Startup)
Resource attributes identify the process and are set once at startup. They use
the standard OpenTelemetry semantic conventions plus custom dotted `xrpl.*`
keys (the dotted form is reserved for resource scope per §2.3.3).
| Key | Type / value | Description |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| `service.name` | `"xrpld"` | Standard `SERVICE_NAME` |
| `service.version` | `BuildInfo::getVersionString()` | Standard `SERVICE_VERSION` |
| `service.instance.id` | node public key (base58) | Standard `SERVICE_INSTANCE_ID` |
| `xrpl.network.id` | network id (e.g. 0 for mainnet) | Network identifier |
| `xrpl.network.type` | `"mainnet"` \| `"testnet"` \| `"devnet"` \| `"standalone"` | Network kind |
| `xrpl.node.type` | `"validator"` \| `"stock"` \| `"reporting"` | Node role |
| `xrpl.node.cluster` | cluster name | Cluster name, if clustered |
### 2.4.2 Span Attributes by Category
> Span attribute keys use the underscore form from §2.3.3 (shared/qualified
> keys are `<domain>_<field>`; per-span unique keys are bare). The dotted form
> is reserved for the resource attributes in §2.4.1 above. This catalog lists
> the planned attribute set by category; the exact emitted key for each
> implemented span is defined by the `*SpanNames.h` constants, which are the
> single source of truth where the two differ.

### 2.4.4 Privacy & Sensitive Data Policy
> **PII** = Personally Identifiable Information
OpenTelemetry instrumentation is designed to collect **operational metadata only**, never sensitive content.
#### Data NOT Collected
The following data is explicitly **excluded** from telemetry collection:
| Excluded Data | Reason |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| **Private Keys** | Never exposed; not relevant to tracing |
| **Account Balances** | Financial data; privacy sensitive |
| **Transaction Amounts** | Financial data; privacy sensitive |
| **Raw TX Payloads** | May contain sensitive memo/data fields |
| **Personal Data** | No PII collected |
| **IP Addresses** | Configurable; excluded by default in prod |
#### Privacy Protection Mechanisms
| Mechanism | Description |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Account Hashing** | `tx_account` is hashed at collector level before storage |
| **Configurable Redaction** | Sensitive fields can be excluded via `[telemetry]` config section |
| **Sampling** | Only 10% of traces recorded by default, reducing data exposure |
| **Local Control** | Node operators have full control over what gets exported |
| **No Raw Payloads** | Transaction content is never recorded, only metadata (hash, type, result) |
| **Collector-Level Filtering** | Additional redaction/hashing can be configured at OTel Collector |
#### Collector-Level Data Protection
The OpenTelemetry Collector can be configured (via an `attributes` processor)
to hash or redact sensitive attributes before export — for example, hashing
`tx_account`, deleting `peer_address` to drop IP addresses, and deleting
`params` to redact request parameters.
#### Configuration Options for Privacy
In `xrpld.cfg`, operators control data collection granularity through the
`[telemetry]` section. Besides `enabled`, per-component toggles
(`trace_transactions`, `trace_consensus`, `trace_rpc`, `trace_peer` — the last
often disabled due to high volume) select which spans are emitted, and
redaction flags (`redact_account` to hash account addresses, `redact_peer_address`
to remove peer IP addresses) control SDK-level redaction before export.
> **Note**: The `redact_account` configuration in `xrpld.cfg` controls SDK-level redaction before export, while collector-level filtering (see [Collector-Level Data Protection](#collector-level-data-protection) above) provides an additional defense-in-depth layer. Both can operate independently.
> **Key Principle**: Telemetry collects **operational metadata** (timing, counts, hashes) — never **sensitive content** (keys, balances, amounts, raw payloads).
> **See also**: [Securing the OTel Pipeline](./secure-OTel.md) covers transport-level protection for telemetry leaving the node — mTLS to the collector and validation of incoming peer trace context. Privacy controls in this section keep sensitive data out of spans; the security doc keeps the spans themselves out of untrusted hands.
---
## 2.5 Context Propagation Design
> **WS** = WebSocket
### 2.5.0 Deterministic Trace ID Strategy
Both transaction and consensus tracing use **deterministic trace IDs** derived from
a globally known hash, so all nodes handling the same workflow independently produce
spans under the same `trace_id`. This is combined with protobuf `span_id` propagation
for parent-child relay ordering when available.
#### Transactions — `trace_id = txHash[0:16]`
Every node that handles a transaction knows its `txID` (the `uint256` transaction
hash). The first 16 bytes of this hash are used as the OTel `trace_id`:
```
uint256 txHash: A1B2C3D4 E5F6A7B8 C9D0E1F2 A3B4C5D6 E7F8A9B0 C1D2E3F4 A5B6C7D8 E9F0A1B2
|---------- trace_id (16 bytes) ---------| (remaining 16 bytes unused)
```
Each node generates a **random 8-byte `span_id`** so its span is unique within the
shared trace. When protobuf `TraceContext` is present in the incoming `TMTransaction`,
the sender's `span_id` is extracted and used as the parent — preserving the relay
chain as a parent-child tree. When absent (older peers, first hop from client), the
span appears as a root in the same trace — correlation is preserved, only the tree
structure degrades.
```
Node A (submitter) Node B (relay) Node C (relay)
trace_id: A1B2... trace_id: A1B2... trace_id: A1B2...
span_id: 1234 (random) span_id: 5678 (random) span_id: 9ABC (random)
parent: (none) parent: 1234 (proto) parent: 5678 (proto)
↑ ↑
protobuf propagation protobuf propagation
```
If protobuf propagation fails at Node B (old peer):
```
Node A Node B (old peer) Node C
trace_id: A1B2... trace_id: A1B2... trace_id: A1B2...
span_id: 1234 span_id: 5678 span_id: 9ABC
parent: (none) parent: (none) parent: 5678 (proto)
↑ no parent, but same trace_id — still grouped
```
#### Consensus — `trace_id = prevLedgerHash[0:16]`
All validators in the same consensus round share the same `previousLedger.id()`.
The first 16 bytes are used as trace_id. See [Phase 4a implementation status](./06-implementation-phases.md)
and `createDeterministicContext()` in `RCLConsensus.cpp` for the implementation.
Switchable via `consensus_trace_strategy` config:
`"deterministic"` (default) or `"attribute"` (random trace_id, correlation via attribute queries).
#### Why Not Random IDs with Propagation Only?
Random trace IDs require **unbroken context propagation** across every hop. In a
mixed-version network (common during upgrades), older peers silently drop the
`trace_context` protobuf field. The trace splits and downstream spans become
impossible to find. Deterministic IDs make correlation **propagation-resilient** — the trace
backend groups all spans for the same transaction/round regardless of whether
propagation succeeded.
#### Why Keep Protobuf Propagation?
Deterministic trace IDs alone provide correlation (all spans grouped) but not
**causality** (which node relayed to which). Protobuf `span_id` propagation adds
parent-child ordering that shows the exact relay path. The two mechanisms complement
each other:
| Mechanism | Provides | Fails when |
| ---------------------------- | --------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| Deterministic trace_id | Cross-node correlation | Never (hash is always known) |
| Protobuf span_id propagation | Parent-child relay ordering | Older peer drops `trace_context` field |
#### Implementation Reference
The utility function `createDeterministicTxContext(uint256 const& txHash)` follows
the same pattern as `createDeterministicContext(uint256 const& ledgerId)` in
`RCLConsensus.cpp`. See [Phase 3 Task 3.9](./Phase3_taskList.md) for the full spec.

```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **HTTP/WebSocket - RPC (blue)**: For client-facing RPC requests, trace context is propagated using the W3C `traceparent` header. This is the standard approach and works with any OTel-compatible client.
- **Protocol Buffers - P2P (green)**: For peer-to-peer messages between xrpld nodes, trace context is embedded as a protobuf `TraceContext` message carrying trace_id, span_id, flags, and optional trace_state.
- **JobQueue - Internal Async (red)**: For asynchronous work within a single node, the OTel context is captured when a job is created and restored when the job executes on a worker thread. This bridges the async gap so spans remain linked.

## 2.6 Integration with Existing Observability
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol | **WS** = WebSocket
### 2.6.1 Existing Frameworks Comparison
xrpld already has two observability mechanisms. OpenTelemetry complements (not replaces) them:
| Aspect | PerfLog | Beast Insight (StatsD) | OpenTelemetry |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------- | ------------------------- |
| **Type** | Logging | Metrics | Distributed Tracing |
| **Data** | JSON log entries | Counters, gauges, histograms | Spans with context |
| **Scope** | Single node | Single node | **Cross-node** |
| **Output** | `perf.log` file | StatsD server | OTLP Collector |
| **Question answered** | "What happened on this node?" | "How many? How fast?" | "What was the journey?" |
| **Correlation** | By timestamp | By metric name | By `trace_id` |
| **Overhead** | Low (file I/O) | Low (UDP packets) | Low-Medium (configurable) |
### 2.6.2 What Each Framework Does Best
#### PerfLog
- **Purpose**: Detailed local event logging for RPC and job execution
- **Strengths**:
- Rich JSON output with timing data
- Already integrated in RPC handlers
- File-based, no external dependencies
- **Limitations**:
- Single-node only (no cross-node correlation)
- No parent-child relationships between events
- Manual log parsing required
A PerfLog entry is a JSON object with fields such as `time`, `method`,
`duration_us`, and `result`.
#### Beast Insight (StatsD)
- **Purpose**: Real-time metrics for monitoring dashboards
- **Strengths**:
- Aggregated metrics (counters, gauges, histograms)
- Low overhead (UDP, fire-and-forget)
- Good for alerting thresholds
- **Limitations**:
- No request-level detail
- No causal relationships
- Single-node perspective
In xrpld, Beast Insight is used through `increment` (counters), `gauge`
(point-in-time values), and `timing` (durations) calls.
#### OpenTelemetry (NEW)
- **Purpose**: Distributed request tracing across nodes
- **Strengths**:
- **Cross-node correlation** via `trace_id`
- Parent-child span relationships
- Rich attributes per span
- Industry standard (CNCF)
- **Limitations**:
- Requires collector infrastructure
- Higher complexity than logging
A span is created via `startSpan` (e.g. `"tx.relay"`), annotated with
attributes such as `tx_hash` and `peer_id`, and is automatically linked to its
parent through the active context.
### 2.6.3 When to Use Each
| Scenario | PerfLog | StatsD | OpenTelemetry |
| --------------------------------------- | ---------- | ------ | ------------- |
| "How many TXs per second?" | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
| "What's the p99 RPC latency?" | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
| "Why was this specific TX slow?" | ⚠️ partial | ❌ | ✅ |
| "Which node delayed consensus?" | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ |
| "What happened on node X at time T?" | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ |
| "Show me the TX journey across 5 nodes" | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ |
### 2.6.4 Coexistence Strategy

collector --> grafana
style xrpld fill:#212121,stroke:#0a0a0a,color:#ffffff
style grafana fill:#bf360c,stroke:#8c2809,color:#ffffff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **xrpld Process (dark gray)**: The single xrpld node running all three observability frameworks side by side. Each framework operates independently with no interference.
- **PerfLog to perf.log**: PerfLog writes JSON-formatted event logs to a local file. Grafana can ingest these via Loki or a file-based datasource.
- **Beast Insight to StatsD Server**: Insight sends aggregated metrics (counters, gauges) over UDP to a StatsD server. Grafana reads from StatsD-compatible backends like Graphite or Prometheus (via StatsD exporter).
- **OpenTelemetry to OTLP Collector**: OTel exports spans over OTLP/gRPC to a Collector, which then forwards to a trace backend (Tempo).
- **Grafana (red, unified UI)**: All three data streams converge in Grafana, enabling operators to correlate logs, metrics, and traces in a single dashboard.
### 2.6.5 Correlation with PerfLog
Trace IDs can be correlated with existing PerfLog entries for comprehensive
debugging. The design is for `RPCHandler.cpp` to start an `rpc.command.<method>`
span alongside the existing PerfLog `rpcStart`/`rpcFinish`/`rpcError` calls,
extract the span's `trace_id` (when valid), and eventually stamp it onto the
PerfLog entry (a planned `setTraceId` hook) so logs and traces share a key. The
span status is set to OK on success or to error (recording the exception) on
failure.

### Key Principles
1. **Minimal Intrusion**: Instrumentation should not alter existing control flow
2. **Zero-Cost When Disabled**: Use compile-time flags and no-op implementations
3. **Backward Compatibility**: Protocol Buffer extensions use high field numbers
4. **Graceful Degradation**: Tracing failures must not affect node operation

## 3.3 Performance Overhead Summary
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
| Metric | Overhead | Notes |
| ------------- | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| CPU | 1-3% | Of per-transaction CPU cost (~200μs baseline) |
| Memory | ~10 MB | SDK statics + batch buffer + worker thread stack |
| Network | 10-50 KB/s | Compressed OTLP export to collector |
| Latency (p99) | <2% | With proper sampling configuration |
---
## 3.4 Detailed CPU Overhead Analysis
### 3.4.1 Per-Operation Costs
> **Note on hardware assumptions**: The costs below are based on the official OTel C++ SDK CI benchmarks
> (969 runs on GitHub Actions 2-core shared runners). On production server hardware (3+ GHz Xeon),
> expect costs at the **lower end** of each range (~30-50% improvement over CI hardware).
| Operation | Time (ns) | Frequency | Impact |
| --------------------- | --------- | ---------------------- | ---------- |
| Span creation | 500-1000 | Every traced operation | Low |
| Span end | 100-200 | Every traced operation | Low |
| SetAttribute (string) | 80-120 | 3-5 per span | Low |
| SetAttribute (int) | 40-60 | 2-3 per span | Negligible |
| AddEvent | 100-200 | 0-2 per span | Low |
| Context injection | 150-250 | Per outgoing message | Low |
| Context extraction | 100-180 | Per incoming message | Low |
| GetCurrent context | 10-20 | Thread-local access | Negligible |
**Source**: Span creation based on OTel C++ SDK `BM_SpanCreation` benchmark (AlwaysOnSampler +
SimpleSpanProcessor + InMemoryExporter), median ~1,000 ns on CI hardware. AddEvent includes
timestamp read + string copy + vector push + mutex acquisition. Context injection/extraction
confirmed by `BM_SpanCreationWithScope` benchmark delta (~160 ns).
### 3.4.2 Transaction Processing Overhead
<div align="center">
```mermaid
%%{init: {'pie': {'textPosition': 0.75}}}%%
pie showData
"tx.receive (1400ns)" : 1400
"tx.validate (1200ns)" : 1200
"tx.relay (1200ns)" : 1200
"Context inject (200ns)" : 200
```
**Transaction Tracing Overhead (~4.0μs total)**
</div>
**Overhead percentage**: 4.0 μs / 200 μs (avg tx processing) = **~2.0%**
> **Breakdown**: Each span (tx.receive, tx.validate, tx.relay) costs ~1,000 ns for creation plus
> ~200-400 ns for 3-5 attribute sets. Context injection is ~200 ns (confirmed by benchmarks).
> On production hardware, expect ~2.6 μs total (~1.3% overhead) due to faster span creation (~500-600 ns).
### 3.4.3 Consensus Round Overhead
| Operation | Count | Cost (ns) | Total |
| ---------------------- | ----- | --------- | ---------- |
| consensus.round span | 1 | ~1200 | ~1.2 μs |
| consensus.phase spans | 3 | ~1100 | ~3.3 μs |
| proposal.receive spans | ~20 | ~1100 | ~22 μs |
| proposal.send spans | ~3 | ~1100 | ~3.3 μs |
| Context operations | ~30 | ~200 | ~6 μs |
| **TOTAL** | | | **~36 μs** |
> **Why higher**: Each span costs ~1,000 ns creation + ~100-200 ns for 1-2 attributes, totaling ~1,100-1,200 ns.
> Context operations remain ~200 ns (confirmed by benchmarks). On production hardware, expect ~24 μs total.
**Overhead percentage**: 36 μs / 3s (typical round) = **~0.001%** (negligible)
### 3.4.4 RPC Request Overhead
| Operation | Cost (ns) |
| ---------------- | ------------ |
| rpc.request span | ~1200 |
| rpc.command span | ~1100 |
| Context extract | ~250 |
| Context inject | ~200 |
| **TOTAL** | **~2.75 μs** |
> **Why higher**: Each span costs ~1,000 ns creation + ~100-200 ns for attributes (command name,
> version, role). Context extract/inject costs are confirmed by OTel C++ benchmarks.
- Fast RPC (1ms): 2.75 μs / 1ms = **~0.275%**
- Slow RPC (100ms): 2.75 μs / 100ms = **~0.003%**
---
## 3.5 Memory Overhead Analysis
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
### 3.5.1 Static Memory
| Component | Size | Allocated |
| ------------------------------------ | ----------- | ---------- |
| TracerProvider singleton | ~64 KB | At startup |
| BatchSpanProcessor (circular buffer) | ~16 KB | At startup |
| BatchSpanProcessor (worker thread) | ~8 MB | At startup |
| OTLP exporter (gRPC channel init) | ~256 KB | At startup |
| Propagator registry | ~8 KB | At startup |
| **Total static** | **~8.3 MB** | |
> **Why higher than earlier estimate**: The BatchSpanProcessor's circular buffer itself is only ~16 KB
> (2049 x 8-byte `AtomicUniquePtr` entries), but it spawns a dedicated worker thread whose default
> stack size on Linux is ~8 MB. The OTLP gRPC exporter allocates memory for channel stubs and TLS
> initialization. The worker thread stack dominates the static footprint.
### 3.5.2 Dynamic Memory
| Component | Size per unit | Max units | Peak |
| -------------------- | -------------- | ---------- | --------------- |
| Active span | ~500-800 bytes | 1000 | ~500-800 KB |
| Queued span (export) | ~500 bytes | 2048 | ~1 MB |
| Attribute storage | ~80 bytes | 5 per span | Included |
| Context storage | ~64 bytes | Per thread | ~6.4 KB |
| **Total dynamic** | | | **~1.5-1.8 MB** |
> **Why active spans are larger**: An active `Span` object includes the wrapper (~88 bytes: shared_ptr,
> mutex, unique_ptr to Recordable) plus `SpanData` (~250 bytes: SpanContext, timestamps, name, status,
> empty containers) plus attribute storage (~200-500 bytes for 3-5 string attributes in a `std::map`).
> Source: `sdk/src/trace/span.h` and `sdk/include/opentelemetry/sdk/trace/span_data.h`.
> Queued spans release the wrapper, keeping only `SpanData` + attributes (~500 bytes).
### 3.5.3 Memory Growth Characteristics
```mermaid

config:
xyChart:
width: 700
height: 400

xychart-beta
title "Memory Usage vs Span Rate (bounded by queue limit)"
x-axis "Spans/second" [0, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000]
y-axis "Memory (MB)" 0 --> 12
line [8.5, 9.2, 9.6, 9.9, 10.0, 10.0]
```
**Notes**:
- Memory increases with span rate but **plateaus at queue capacity** (default 2048 spans)
- Batch export prevents unbounded growth
- At queue limit, oldest spans are dropped (not blocked)
- Maximum memory is bounded: ~8.3 MB static (dominated by worker thread stack) + 2048 queued spans x ~500 bytes (~1 MB) + active spans (~0.8 MB) ≈ **~10 MB ceiling**
- The worker thread stack (~8 MB) is virtual memory; actual RSS depends on stack usage (typically much less)
### 3.5.4 Performance Data Sources
The overhead estimates in Sections 3.3-3.5 are derived from the following sources:

## 3.6 Network Overhead Analysis
### 3.6.1 Export Bandwidth
> **Bytes per span**: Estimates use ~500 bytes/span (conservative upper bound). OTLP protobuf analysis
> shows a typical span with 3-5 string attributes serializes to ~200-300 bytes raw; with gzip
> compression (~60-70% of raw) and batching (amortized headers), ~350 bytes/span is more realistic.
> The table uses the conservative estimate for capacity planning.
| Sampling Rate | Spans/sec | Bandwidth | Notes |
| ------------- | --------- | --------- | ---------------- |
| 100% | ~500 | ~250 KB/s | Development only |
| 10% | ~50 | ~25 KB/s | Staging |
| 1% | ~5 | ~2.5 KB/s | Production |
| Error-only | ~1 | ~0.5 KB/s | Minimal overhead |
### 3.6.2 Trace Context Propagation
| Message Type | Context Size | Messages/sec | Overhead |
| ---------------------- | ------------ | ------------ | ----------- |
| TMTransaction | 25 bytes | ~100 | ~2.5 KB/s |
| TMProposeSet | 25 bytes | ~10 | ~250 B/s |
| TMValidation | 25 bytes | ~50 | ~1.25 KB/s |
| **Total P2P overhead** | | | **~4 KB/s** |

### 3.7.2 Batch Tuning Recommendations
| Environment | Batch Size | Batch Delay | Max Queue |
| ------------------ | ---------- | ----------- | --------- |
| Low-latency | 128 | 1000ms | 512 |
| High-throughput | 1024 | 10000ms | 8192 |
| Memory-constrained | 256 | 2000ms | 512 |
### 3.7.3 Conditional Instrumentation
Instrumentation is gated on two levels. A compile-time feature flag (`XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY`) reduces the trace macros to no-ops when telemetry is built out, so disabled builds carry zero cost. At runtime, per-component guards (e.g. `shouldTracePeer()`) skip span creation for components whose tracing is turned off, incurring no overhead beyond a single boolean check.

#### Risk Level Definitions
| Risk Level | Definition | Mitigation |
| ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| **Low** | Additive changes only; no modification to existing logic | Standard code review |
| **Medium** | Minor modifications to existing functions; clear boundaries | Comprehensive unit tests |
| **High** | Changes to core logic or data structures; potential side effects | Integration tests + staged rollout |
### 3.9.4 Architectural Impact Assessment
| Aspect | Impact | Justification |
| -------------------- | ------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Data Flow** | Minimal | Read-only instrumentation; no modification to consensus or transaction data flow |
| **Threading Model** | Minimal | Context propagation uses thread-local storage (standard OTel pattern) |
| **Memory Model** | Low | Bounded queues prevent unbounded growth; RAII ensures cleanup |
| **Network Protocol** | Low | Optional fields in protobuf (high field numbers); backward compatible |
| **Configuration** | None | New config section; existing configs unaffected |
| **Build System** | Low | Optional CMake flag; builds work without OpenTelemetry |
| **Dependencies** | Low | OpenTelemetry SDK is optional; null implementation when disabled |
### 3.9.5 Backward Compatibility
| Compatibility | Status | Notes |
| --------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
| **Config File** | ✅ Full | New `[telemetry]` section is optional |
| **Protocol** | ✅ Full | Optional protobuf fields with high field numbers |
| **Build** | ✅ Full | `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=OFF` produces identical binary |
| **Runtime** | ✅ Full | `enabled=0` produces zero overhead |
| **API** | ✅ Full | No changes to public RPC or P2P APIs |
### 3.9.6 Rollback Strategy
If issues are discovered after deployment:
1. **Immediate**: Set `enabled=0` in config and restart (zero code change)
2. **Quick**: Rebuild with `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=OFF`
3. **Complete**: Revert telemetry commits (clean separation makes this easy)
### 3.9.7 Code Change Examples
**Minimal RPC Instrumentation (Low Intrusiveness):** Instrumenting an RPC handler adds roughly 3-4 lines: one macro to start the span and one or two `setAttribute` calls (command name, status). The span ends automatically via RAII, so the existing control flow — process the request, send the result — is untouched.
**Consensus Instrumentation (Medium Intrusiveness):** Consensus is slightly more intrusive because child spans in later phase transitions need the round's context. Beyond the span-start and attribute macros, this requires storing the active context in a new member variable (`currentRoundContext_`) at round start. The existing round logic itself remains unchanged.

## 5.1 xrpld Configuration
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol | **TxQ** = Transaction Queue
### 5.1.1 Configuration File Section
The authoritative `[telemetry]` example lives in `cfg/xrpld-example.cfg`. Telemetry is disabled by default (`enabled=0`); enabling it turns on distributed tracing for transaction flow, consensus, and RPC calls, with traces exported to an OpenTelemetry Collector over OTLP. Head sampling is intentionally fixed at 1.0 (sample everything) and is not configurable — per-node head-sampling would produce broken/partial distributed traces, so volume reduction is delegated to the collector's tail sampling (see Section 7.4.2). The full option reference follows.
### 5.1.2 Configuration Options Summary
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
| -------------------------- | ------ | --------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `enabled` | bool | `false` | Enable/disable telemetry |
| `endpoint` | string | `http://localhost:4318/v1/traces` | OTLP/HTTP collector endpoint |
| `use_tls` | bool | `false` | Enable TLS for exporter connection |
| `tls_ca_cert` | string | `""` | Path to CA certificate file |
| `tls_client_cert` | string | `""` | Path to node's client certificate (PEM) for mutual TLS; empty = one-way TLS |
| `tls_client_key` | string | `""` | Path to private key (PEM) for `tls_client_cert`; required when it is set |
| `batch_size` | uint | `512` | Spans per export batch |
| `batch_delay_ms` | uint | `5000` | Max delay before sending batch (ms) |
| `max_queue_size` | uint | `2048` | Maximum queued spans |
| `trace_transactions` | bool | `true` | Enable transaction tracing |
| `trace_consensus` | bool | `true` | Enable consensus tracing |
| `trace_rpc` | bool | `true` | Enable RPC tracing |
| `trace_peer` | bool | `true` | Enable peer message tracing (high volume) |
| `trace_ledger` | bool | `true` | Enable ledger tracing |
| `tx_trace_strategy` | string | `"deterministic"` | TX trace ID strategy: `"deterministic"` (trace_id = txHash[0:16]) or `"attribute"` (random) |
| `consensus_trace_strategy` | string | `"deterministic"` | Consensus trace ID strategy: `"deterministic"` (trace_id = prevLedgerHash[0:16]) or `"attribute"` (random) |
| `service_name` | string | `"xrpld"` | Service name for traces |
| `service_instance_id` | string | `<node_pubkey>` | Instance identifier |
**Planned (not yet implemented)**: the following options appear in the design
documents but are not parsed by `TelemetryConfig.cpp` in Phase 1b and later
phases. They will be added as the corresponding subsystems are instrumented:
| Option | Planned Phase | Purpose |
| ----------------- | ------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| `exporter` | Future | Select between OTLP/HTTP and OTLP/gRPC |
| `trace_pathfind` | Phase 2 | Path computation tracing toggle |
| `trace_txq` | Phase 3 | Transaction queue tracing toggle |
| `trace_validator` | Future | Validator list / manifest update tracing |
| `trace_amendment` | Future | Amendment voting tracing |
---
## 5.2 Configuration Parser
> **TxQ** = Transaction Queue
The parser `setupTelemetry()` in `src/libxrpl/telemetry/TelemetryConfig.cpp` reads the `[telemetry]` `Section` and populates a `Telemetry::Setup` struct, applying the defaults listed in Section 5.1.2 via `section.value_or(...)`. It derives `serviceInstanceId` from the node public key when not overridden, selects the exporter endpoint default by exporter type, and leaves the sampling ratio at its fixed 1.0 default (not read from config — see Section 7.4.2).
---
## 5.3 Application Integration
### 5.3.1 ApplicationImp Changes
> **Deferred identity**: The node public key (`nodeIdentity_`) is not
> available during `ApplicationImp`'s member initializer list — it is
> resolved later in `setup()`. The `Telemetry` object is therefore
> constructed with an empty `serviceInstanceId` and patched via
> `setServiceInstanceId()` once `setup()` has called `getNodeIdentity()`.
`ApplicationImp` (in `src/xrpld/app/main/Application.cpp`) owns a `std::unique_ptr<telemetry::Telemetry> telemetry_`. It is built in the member initializer list via `makeTelemetry(setupTelemetry(...))` with an empty `serviceInstanceId`, then patched in `setup()` by calling `setServiceInstanceId()` with the Base58 node public key (unless the user supplied a custom `service_instance_id`). `start()` and `run()` forward to `telemetry_->start()` / `telemetry_->stop()`, and `getTelemetry()` returns the owned instance.
### 5.3.2 ServiceRegistry Interface Addition
`include/xrpl/core/ServiceRegistry.h` gains a pure-virtual `telemetry::Telemetry& getTelemetry()` (with a forward declaration of `telemetry::Telemetry`), giving every component a uniform accessor for the tracing subsystem.
> **Note:** `Application` extends `ServiceRegistry`, so `getTelemetry()` is
> available on both. Components that hold a `ServiceRegistry&` (e.g.
> `NetworkOPsImp`) call `registry_.get().getTelemetry()`. Components that
> still hold an `Application&` (e.g. `ServerHandler`, `PeerImp`,
> `RCLConsensusAdaptor`) call `app_.getTelemetry()` directly.

## 5.4 CMake Integration
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
### 5.4.1 Find OpenTelemetry Module
A `cmake/FindOpenTelemetry.cmake` module locates the OpenTelemetry C++ SDK. It first tries `find_package(opentelemetry-cpp CONFIG)`, aliasing the imported targets `OpenTelemetry::api`, `OpenTelemetry::sdk`, and `OpenTelemetry::otlp_grpc_exporter`, and falls back to `pkg-config` when no CMake config package is present.
### 5.4.2 CMakeLists.txt Changes
The top-level `CMakeLists.txt` adds an `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY` option (default `OFF`). When enabled, it runs `find_package(OpenTelemetry REQUIRED)`, defines the `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY` compile flag, and builds the `xrpl_telemetry` library from the real telemetry sources linked against the OpenTelemetry targets; when disabled, it builds the same target from a no-op `NullTelemetry.cpp` so call sites compile unchanged.
---
## 5.5 OpenTelemetry Collector Configuration
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol | **APM** = Application Performance Monitoring
> **Production hardening**: The configurations in this section are starting points. For production deployments where xrpld ships telemetry across a network to a centrally-hosted collector, see [Securing the OTel Pipeline](./secure-OTel.md) for the required mTLS receiver config, NetworkPolicy, and peer trace-context validation.
The authoritative collector config lives in the repo at `docker/telemetry/otel-collector-config.yaml` (with Tempo backend config in `docker/telemetry/tempo.yaml`). The sections below summarize the development and production shapes of that pipeline.
### 5.5.1 Development Configuration
The development collector enables an OTLP receiver on both gRPC (`0.0.0.0:4317`) and HTTP (`0.0.0.0:4318`), a single `batch` processor (1s timeout, batch size 100), and two exporters: a `logging` exporter for console debugging and `otlp/tempo` (insecure) for trace visualization. The single `traces` pipeline wires receiver → batch → both exporters.
### 5.5.2 Production Configuration
The production collector adds TLS on the OTLP gRPC receiver and a richer processor chain: a `memory_limiter` (OOM guard), `batch` (5s timeout, size 512), `tail_sampling`, and an `attributes` processor that hashes sensitive fields (e.g. `tx_account`) and stamps `deployment.environment`. Tail sampling keeps all `ERROR` traces, slow consensus rounds (>5s) and slow RPC requests (>1s), and probabilistically samples the remainder at 10%. Exporters target Grafana Tempo (TLS) and Elastic APM; `health_check` and `zpages` extensions are enabled for operability.
---
## 5.6 Docker Compose Development Environment
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
The authoritative development stack lives in the repo at `docker/telemetry/docker-compose.yml`. It brings up four services on a shared `xrpld-telemetry` network: an `otel-collector` (otel/opentelemetry-collector-contrib) exposing OTLP gRPC `4317`, OTLP HTTP `4318`, and health check `13133`; `tempo` for trace storage/visualization; `grafana` with provisioned datasources and dashboards (anonymous admin enabled); and an optional `prometheus` for metric correlation.

```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Configuration Sources**: `xrpld.cfg` provides runtime settings (endpoint, sampling) while the CMake flag controls whether telemetry is compiled in at all.
- **Initialization**: `setupTelemetry()` parses config values, then `makeTelemetry()` constructs the provider, processor, and exporter objects.
- **Runtime Components**: The `TracerProvider` creates spans, the `BatchProcessor` buffers them, and the `OTLP Exporter` serializes and sends them over the wire.
- **OTLP arrow to Collector**: Trace data leaves the xrpld process via OTLP (gRPC or HTTP) and enters the external Collector pipeline.
- **Collector Pipeline**: `Receivers` ingest OTLP data, `Processors` apply sampling/filtering/enrichment, and `Exporters` forward traces to storage backends (Tempo, etc.).
---
## 5.8 Grafana Integration
> **APM** = Application Performance Monitoring
Step-by-step instructions for integrating xrpld traces with Grafana.
### 5.8.1 Data Source Configuration
#### Tempo (Recommended)
A Tempo datasource (`grafana/provisioning/datasources/tempo.yaml`, provisioned from `docker/telemetry/grafana/`) points at `http://tempo:3200` and enables `tracesToLogs` (linking to Loki on `service.name`/`tx_hash` and mapping `trace_id``traceID`), `serviceMap` against Prometheus, the node graph, and Loki search.
#### Elastic APM
Alternatively, an Elasticsearch datasource (`grafana/provisioning/datasources/elastic-apm.yaml`) of type `elasticsearch` points at `http://elasticsearch:9200` against the `apm-*` index, using `@timestamp` as the time field and mapping the log message/level fields.
### 5.8.2 Dashboard Provisioning
A dashboard provider (`grafana/provisioning/dashboards/dashboards.yaml`) loads the `xrpld` dashboard folder from disk (`/var/lib/grafana/dashboards/rippled`), polling for changes every 30s with deletion disabled.
### 5.8.3 Example Dashboard: RPC Performance
An example `xrpld RPC Performance` dashboard (uid `xrpld-rpc-performance`) sourced from Tempo via TraceQL provides four panels: RPC latency by command (heatmap), RPC error rate by command (timeseries), the top 10 slowest RPC commands by average duration (table), and a recent-traces table.
### 5.8.4 Example Dashboard: Transaction Tracing
An example `xrpld Transaction Tracing` dashboard (uid `xrpld-tx-tracing`) over Tempo provides three panels: transaction throughput (`tx.receive` rate, stat), cross-node relay count (average `span.relay_count` on `tx.relay`, timeseries), and a table of transaction validation errors (`tx.validate` with `status.code=error`).
### 5.8.5 TraceQL Query Examples
Common queries for xrpld traces:
```
# Find all traces for a specific transaction hash
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && span.tx_hash="ABC123..."}
# Find slow RPC commands (>100ms)
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name=~"rpc.command.*"} | duration > 100ms
# Find consensus rounds taking >5 seconds
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name="consensus.round"} | duration > 5s
# Find failed transactions with error details
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name="tx.validate" && status.code=error}
# Find transactions relayed to many peers
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name="tx.relay"} | span.relay_count > 10
# Compare latency across nodes
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name="rpc.command.account_info"} | avg(duration) by (resource.service.instance.id)
```
### 5.8.6 Correlation with PerfLog
To correlate OpenTelemetry traces with existing PerfLog data:
**Step 1: Configure Loki to ingest PerfLog**
Configure a Promtail scrape job (`promtail-config.yaml`) that tails `/var/log/rippled/perf*.log`, parses each JSON line, and promotes `trace_id`, `ledger_seq`, and `tx_hash` to Loki labels.
**Step 2: Add trace_id to PerfLog entries**
Modify PerfLog so its JSON output includes a `trace_id` field whenever a valid span is active: fetch the current span from the OpenTelemetry runtime context, and if its context is valid, render the trace ID as a 32-character lowercase hex string into the log entry.
**Step 3: Configure Grafana trace-to-logs link**
In the Tempo datasource, set the `tracesToLogs` derived field to link to Loki on the `trace_id` and `tx_hash` tags, with `filterByTraceID: true`.
### 5.8.7 Correlation with Insight/StatsD Metrics
To correlate traces with existing Beast Insight metrics:
**Step 1: Export Insight metrics to Prometheus**
Add a Prometheus scrape job (`prometheus.yaml`) named `xrpld-statsd` targeting the StatsD exporter at `statsd-exporter:9102`.
**Step 2: Add exemplars to metrics**
The OpenTelemetry SDK automatically adds exemplars (trace IDs) to metrics when using the Prometheus exporter, linking metric spikes to specific traces.
**Step 3: Configure Grafana metric-to-trace link**
In the Prometheus datasource, set `exemplarTraceIdDestinations` to map the `trace_id` exemplar to the Tempo datasource.
**Step 4: Dashboard panel with exemplars**
Add a timeseries panel over Prometheus (e.g. `histogram_quantile(0.99, rate(xrpld_rpc_duration_seconds_bucket[5m]))`) with `exemplar: true` enabled.
This allows clicking on metric data points to jump directly to the related trace.

- [ ] Telemetry can be enabled/disabled via config
- [ ] Basic span creation works
- [ ] No performance regression when disabled
- [ ] Unit tests passing
---
## 6.3 Phase 2: RPC Tracing (Weeks 3-4)
> **TxQ** = Transaction Queue
**Objective**: Complete tracing for all RPC operations
### Tasks
| Task | Description |
| ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 2.1 | Implement W3C Trace Context HTTP header extraction |
| 2.2 | Instrument `ServerHandler::onRequest()` |
| 2.3 | Instrument `RPCHandler::doCommand()` |
| 2.4 | Add RPC-specific attributes |
| 2.5 | Instrument WebSocket handler |
| 2.6 | PathFinding instrumentation (`pathfind.request`, `pathfind.compute` spans) |
| 2.7 | TxQ instrumentation (`txq.enqueue`, `txq.apply` spans) |
| 2.8 | Integration tests for RPC tracing |
| 2.9 | Performance benchmarks |
| 2.10 | Documentation |
### Exit Criteria
- [ ] All RPC commands traced
- [ ] Trace context propagates from HTTP headers
- [ ] WebSocket and HTTP both instrumented
- [ ] <1ms overhead per RPC call
- [ ] Integration tests passing
---
## 6.4 Phase 3: Transaction Tracing (Weeks 5-6)
**Objective**: Trace transaction lifecycle across network with deterministic cross-node correlation
### Tasks
| Task | Description |
| ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 3.1 | Define `TraceContext` Protocol Buffer message |
| 3.2 | Implement protobuf context serialization |
| 3.3 | Instrument `PeerImp::handleTransaction()` |
| 3.4 | Instrument `NetworkOPs::submitTransaction()` |
| 3.5 | Instrument HashRouter integration |
| 3.6 | Fee escalation instrumentation (`fee.escalate` span) |

| 3.8 | Integration tests (multi-node) |
| 3.9 | Deterministic transaction trace ID (`trace_id = txHash[0:16]`) |
| 3.10 | Performance benchmarks |
### Deterministic Trace ID (Task 3.9)
Transaction spans use **deterministic trace IDs** derived from the transaction hash:
`trace_id = txHash[0:16]`. All nodes handling the same transaction independently
produce spans under the same trace_id. Protobuf `span_id` propagation (Task 3.7)
additionally provides parent-child relay ordering when available. See
[02-design-decisions.md §2.5.0](./02-design-decisions.md) for the design rationale
and [Phase3_taskList.md Task 3.9](./Phase3_taskList.md) for the full implementation spec.
### Exit Criteria
- [ ] Transaction traces span across nodes
- [ ] Trace context in Protocol Buffer messages
- [ ] HashRouter deduplication visible in traces
- [ ] Multi-node integration tests passing
- [ ] <5% overhead on transaction throughput
- [ ] Deterministic trace_id: all nodes produce same trace_id for same transaction
- [ ] Protobuf span_id propagation preserves parent-child ordering when available
---
## 6.5 Phase 4: Consensus Tracing (Weeks 7-8)
**Objective**: Full observability into consensus rounds
### Tasks
| Task | Description | Status |
| ---- | ---------------------------------------------- | ------------------ |
| 4.1 | Instrument `RCLConsensusAdaptor::startRound()` | Done (via 4a.2) |
| 4.2 | Instrument phase transitions | Done |
| 4.3 | Instrument proposal handling | Done |
| 4.4 | Instrument validation handling | Done |
| 4.5 | Add consensus-specific attributes | Done |
| 4.6 | Correlate with transaction traces | Done |
| 4.7 | Build verification and testing | Done |
| 4.8 | Validation span enrichment (ext. dashboard) | Not done |
**Note**: The original plan doc listed tasks 4.7-4.11 as "Validator list tracing",
"Amendment voting tracing", "SHAMap sync tracing", "Multi-validator integration tests",
and "Performance validation". These were descoped and replaced by the tasklist's 4.7
(build verification) and 4.8 (validation span enrichment). Validator, amendment, and
SHAMap tracing are not implemented.
### Spans Produced
| Span Name | Location | Attributes |
| --------------------------- | ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `consensus.phase.open` | `Consensus.h` | _(none)_ |
| `consensus.proposal.send` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `consensus_round` |
| `consensus.ledger_close` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `ledger_seq`, `consensus_mode` |
| `consensus.accept` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `proposers`, `round_time_ms`, `quorum` |
| `consensus.accept.apply` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `close_time`, `close_time_correct`, `close_resolution_ms`, `consensus_state`, `proposing`, `round_time_ms`, `ledger_seq`, `parent_close_time`, `close_time_self`, `close_time_vote_bins`, `resolution_direction` |
| `consensus.validation.send` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `ledger_seq`, `proposing` |
### Exit Criteria
- [x] Complete consensus round traces
- [x] Phase transitions visible (open, establish, close, accept)
- [x] Proposals and validations traced send and receive; relay deferred to Phase 4b
- [x] Close time agreement tracked (per `avCT_CONSENSUS_PCT`)
- [x] No impact on consensus timing
- [ ] Multi-validator test network validated
- [x] Transaction-consensus correlation (Task 4.6) `tx.included` events in doAccept
- [ ] Validation span enrichment (Task 4.8) not implemented
### Implementation Status — Phase 4a Complete
Phase 4a (establish-phase gap fill & cross-node correlation) adds:
- **Deterministic trace ID** derived from `previousLedger.id()` so all validators
in the same round share the same `trace_id` (switchable via
`consensus_trace_strategy` config: `"deterministic"` or `"attribute"`).
See [Configuration Reference](./05-configuration-reference.md) for full
configuration options.
- **Round lifecycle spans**: `consensus.round` with round-to-round span links.
- **Establish phase**: `consensus.establish`, `consensus.update_positions` (with
`dispute.resolve` events), `consensus.check` (with threshold tracking).
- **Mode changes**: `consensus.mode_change` spans.
- **Validation**: `consensus.validation.send` with span link to round span
(thread-safe cross-thread access via `roundSpanContext_` snapshot).
- **Separation of concerns**: telemetry extracted to private helpers
(`startRoundTracing`, `createValidationSpan`, `startEstablishTracing`,
`updateEstablishTracing`, `endEstablishTracing`).
See [Phase4_taskList.md](./Phase4_taskList.md) for the full spec and implementation notes.
---
## 6.5a Phase 4a: Establish-Phase Gap Fill & Cross-Node Correlation
**Objective**: Fill tracing gaps in the establish phase and establish cross-node
correlation using deterministic trace IDs derived from `previousLedger.id()`.
**Approach**: Direct instrumentation in `Consensus.h` and `RCLConsensus.cpp`.
All spans use `SpanGuard` factory methods (`span()`, `hashSpan()`, `linkedSpan()`)
with `TraceCategory::Consensus` gating. No macros used all tracing via direct
`SpanGuard` API calls.
### Tasks
| Task | Description | Effort | Risk | Status |
| ---- | ------------------------------------------------ | ------ | ------ | ------------------------ |
| 4a.0 | Prerequisites: extend SpanGuard & Telemetry APIs | 1d | Medium | Done (no macros) |
| 4a.1 | Adaptor `getTelemetry()` method | 0.5d | Low | Skipped (not needed) |
| 4a.2 | Switchable round span with deterministic traceID | 2d | High | Done |
| 4a.3 | Span members in `Consensus.h` | 0.5d | Medium | Done (with deviation) |
| 4a.4 | Instrument `phaseEstablish()` | 1d | Medium | Done |
| 4a.5 | Instrument `updateOurPositions()` | 1d | Medium | Done |
| 4a.6 | Instrument `haveConsensus()` (thresholds) | 1d | Medium | Done |
| 4a.7 | Instrument mode changes | 0.5d | Low | Done |
| 4a.8 | Reparent existing spans under round | 0.5d | Low | Done |
| 4a.9 | Build verification and testing | 1d | Low | Done |
**Total Effort**: 9 days
### Spans Produced
| Span Name | Location | Key Attributes (actually set) |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `consensus.round` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `consensus_round_id`, `consensus_ledger_id`, `ledger_seq`, `consensus_mode`, `trace_strategy` |
| `consensus.establish` | `Consensus.h` | `converge_percent`, `establish_count`, `proposers` |
| `consensus.update_positions` | `Consensus.h` | `converge_percent`, `proposers`, `have_close_time_consensus`, `close_time_threshold`, `disputes_count`, `avalanche_threshold` |
| `consensus.check` | `Consensus.h` | `agree_count`, `disagree_count`, `converge_percent`, `have_close_time_consensus`, `threshold_percent`, `consensus_result` |
| `consensus.mode_change` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `mode_old`, `mode_new` |
### Exit Criteria
- [x] Establish phase internals traced (establish, update_positions, check spans)
- [x] Establish phase fully traced `disputes_count`, `avalanche_threshold`, dispute `yays`/`nays` all implemented
- [x] Cross-node correlation works via deterministic trace_id
- [x] Strategy switchable via config (`deterministic` / `attribute`)
- [x] Consecutive rounds linked via follows-from spans
- [x] Build passes with telemetry ON and OFF
- [x] No impact on consensus timing
See [Phase4_taskList.md](./Phase4_taskList.md) for full task details.

## 6.5b Phase 4b: Cross-Node Propagation (Future)
**Objective**: Wire `TraceContextPropagator` for P2P messages (proposals,
validations) to enable true distributed tracing between nodes.
**Status**: Design documented, NOT implemented. Protobuf fields (field 1001)
and `TraceContextPropagator` free functions exist. Wiring deferred until Phase 4a is
validated in a multi-node environment.
**Prerequisites**: Phase 4a complete and validated.
See [Phase4_taskList.md § Phase 4b](./Phase4_taskList.md) for full design.

**Reading the diagram:**
- **CRAWL (Weeks 1-2)**: Minimal investment -- set up the SDK, instrument RPC and PathFinding/TxQ handlers, and verify on a single node. Delivers immediate latency visibility.
- **WALK (Weeks 3-5)**: Expand to transaction lifecycle tracing, fee escalation, cross-node context propagation, and basic Grafana dashboards. This is where distributed tracing starts working.
- **RUN (Weeks 6-9)**: Full consensus instrumentation, establish-phase gap fill, cross-node correlation, StatsD integration, and production deployment with sampling and alerting.
- **Arrows (crawl → walk → run)**: Each phase builds on the prior one; you cannot skip ahead because later phases depend on infrastructure established earlier.
### 6.9.2 Quick Wins (Immediate Value)
| Quick Win | Value | When to Deploy |
| ------------------------------ | ------ | -------------- |
| **RPC Command Tracing** | High | Week 2 |
| **RPC Latency Histograms** | High | Week 2 |
| **Error Rate Dashboard** | Medium | Week 2 |
| **Transaction Submit Tracing** | High | Week 3 |
| **Consensus Round Duration** | Medium | Week 6 |
### 6.9.3 CRAWL Phase (Weeks 1-2)
**Goal**: Get basic tracing working with minimal code changes.
**What You Get**:
- RPC request/response traces for all commands
- Latency breakdown per RPC command
- PathFinding and TxQ tracing (directly impacts RPC latency)
- Error visibility with stack traces
- Basic Grafana dashboard
**Code Changes**: ~15 lines in `ServerHandler.cpp`, ~40 lines in new telemetry module
**Why Start Here**:
- RPC is the lowest-risk, highest-visibility component
- PathFinding and TxQ are RPC-adjacent and directly affect latency
- Immediate value for debugging client issues
- No cross-node complexity
- Single file modification to existing code
### 6.9.4 WALK Phase (Weeks 3-5)
**Goal**: Add transaction lifecycle tracing across nodes.
**What You Get**:
- End-to-end transaction traces from submit to relay
- Fee escalation tracing within the transaction pipeline
- Cross-node correlation (see transaction path)
- HashRouter deduplication visibility
- Relay latency metrics
**Code Changes**: ~120 lines across 4 files, plus protobuf extension
**Why Do This Second**:
- Builds on RPC tracing (transactions submitted via RPC)
- Fee escalation is integral to the transaction processing pipeline
- Moderate complexity (requires context propagation)
- High value for debugging transaction issues
### 6.9.5 RUN Phase (Weeks 6-9)
**Goal**: Full observability including consensus.
**What You Get**:
- Complete consensus round visibility
- Phase transition timing
- Validator proposal tracking
- ~~Validator list and manifest tracing~~ — descoped
- ~~Amendment voting tracing~~ — descoped
- ~~SHAMap sync tracing~~ — descoped
- Full end-to-end traces (client → RPC → TX → consensus → ledger) — partial (tx-consensus correlation not yet done)
**Code Changes**: ~100 lines across 3 consensus files
**Why Do This Last**:
- Highest complexity (consensus is critical path)
- Validator, amendment, and SHAMap components were descoped (lower priority)
- Requires thorough testing
- Lower relative value (consensus issues are rarer)
### 6.9.6 ROI Prioritization Matrix

**Reading the diagram:**
- **Week 1 (tasks 1-2)**: Foundation work -- integrate the OpenTelemetry SDK via Conan/CMake and build the `Telemetry` interface with `SpanGuard` and config parsing.
- **Week 2 (tasks 3-4)**: First observable output -- instrument `ServerHandler` for RPC tracing and stand up Tempo so developers can see traces immediately.
- **Weeks 3-5 (tasks 5-10)**: Transaction lifecycle -- add submit tracing, build the first Grafana dashboard, extend protobuf for cross-node context, instrument `PeerImp` relay, then validate with multi-node integration tests and performance benchmarks.
- **Weeks 6-8 (tasks 11-12)**: Consensus deep-dive -- instrument consensus rounds and phases, then run full integration testing across all instrumented paths.
- **Week 9 (tasks 13-14)**: Go-live -- deploy to production with sampling/alerting configured, and deliver documentation and operator training.
- **Arrow chain (t1 ... t14)**: Strict sequential dependency; each task's output is a prerequisite for the next.

# Observability Backend Recommendations
> **Parent Document**: [OpenTelemetryPlan.md](./OpenTelemetryPlan.md)
> **Related**: [Implementation Phases](./06-implementation-phases.md) | [Appendix](./08-appendix.md)
---
## 7.1 Development/Testing Backends
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
| Backend | Pros | Cons | Use Case |
| ---------- | ----------------------------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------- |
| **Tempo** | Cost-effective, Grafana integration | Requires Grafana stack | Local dev, CI, Prod |
| **Zipkin** | Simple, lightweight | Basic features | Quick prototyping |
### Quick Start with Tempo
```bash
# Start Tempo with OTLP support
docker run -d --name tempo \
-p 3200:3200 \
-p 4317:4317 \
-p 4318:4318 \
grafana/tempo:2.6.1
```
---
## 7.2 Production Backends
> **APM** = Application Performance Monitoring
| Backend | Pros | Cons | Use Case |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------------- | ---------------------- | --------------------------- |
| **Grafana Tempo** | Cost-effective, Grafana integration | Requires Grafana stack | Most production deployments |
| **Elastic APM** | Full observability stack, log correlation | Resource intensive | Existing Elastic users |
| **Honeycomb** | Excellent query, high cardinality | SaaS cost | Deep debugging needs |
| **Datadog APM** | Full platform, easy setup | SaaS cost | Enterprise with budget |

```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Budget Constraints? (Yes)**: Leads to open-source options. If you already run Grafana or Elastic, pick the matching backend; otherwise default to Grafana Tempo.
- **Budget Constraints? (No) → Prefer SaaS?**: If you want a managed service, choose between Datadog (enterprise support) and Honeycomb (developer-focused). If not, fall back to open-source.
- **Terminal nodes (Tempo / Elastic / Honeycomb / Datadog)**: Each represents a concrete backend choice, all of which feed into the same final step.
- **Configure Collector**: Regardless of backend, you always finish by configuring the OTel Collector to export to your chosen destination.

```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Validator / Stock Nodes**: All xrpld nodes emit trace data via OTLP. Validators and stock nodes are grouped separately because they may reside in different network zones.
- **Collector Cluster (DC1, DC2)**: Regional collectors receive OTLP from nodes in their datacenter, apply processing (sampling, enrichment), and fan out to multiple backends.
- **Storage Backends**: Tempo and Elastic provide queryable trace storage; S3/GCS Archive provides long-term cold storage for compliance or post-incident analysis.
- **Grafana Dashboards**: The single visualization layer that queries both Tempo and Elastic, giving operators a unified view of all traces.
- **Data flow direction**: Nodes → Collectors → Storage → Grafana. Each arrow represents a network hop; minimizing collector-to-backend hops reduces latency.
> **Note**: Production deployments should use multiple collector instances behind a load balancer for high availability. The diagram shows a simplified single-collector topology for clarity.

## 7.4 Architecture Considerations
### 7.4.1 Collector Placement
| Strategy | Description | Pros | Cons |
| ------------- | -------------------- | ------------------------ | ----------------------- |
| **Sidecar** | Collector per node | Isolation, simple config | Resource overhead |
| **DaemonSet** | Collector per host | Shared resources | Complexity |
| **Gateway** | Central collector(s) | Centralized processing | Single point of failure |
**Recommendation**: Use **Gateway** pattern with regional collectors for xrpld networks:
- One collector cluster per datacenter/region
- Tail-based sampling at collector level
- Multiple export destinations for redundancy
### 7.4.2 Sampling Strategy
```mermaid
flowchart LR
subgraph head["Head Sampling (Node)"]
hs[Node-level head sampling<br/>fixed at 100%<br/>not configurable]
end
subgraph tail["Tail Sampling (Collector)"]
ts1[Keep all errors]
ts2[Keep slow >5s]
ts3[Keep 10% rest]
end
head --> tail
ts1 --> final[Final Traces]
ts2 --> final
ts3 --> final
style head fill:#0d47a1,stroke:#082f6a,color:#fff
style tail fill:#1b5e20,stroke:#0d3d14,color:#fff
style hs fill:#0d47a1,stroke:#082f6a,color:#fff
style ts1 fill:#1b5e20,stroke:#0d3d14,color:#fff
style ts2 fill:#1b5e20,stroke:#0d3d14,color:#fff
style ts3 fill:#1b5e20,stroke:#0d3d14,color:#fff
style final fill:#bf360c,stroke:#8c2809,color:#fff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Head Sampling (Node)**: xrpld pins head sampling at 100% (sample everything) and does not expose a configurable ratio. This is intentional: a per-node ratio would let different nodes make divergent keep/drop decisions for the same distributed trace, producing broken/partial traces. xrpld uses a `ParentBased` sampler so spans inheriting a remote parent honor the upstream decision. Volume reduction is delegated to the collector's tail sampling.
- **Tail Sampling (Collector)**: The second filter -- the collector inspects completed traces and applies rules: keep all errors, keep anything slower than 5 seconds, and keep 10% of the remainder.
- **Arrow head → tail**: All head-sampled traces flow to the collector, where tail sampling further reduces volume while preserving the most valuable data.
- **Final Traces**: The output after both sampling stages; this is what gets stored and queried. The two-stage approach balances cost with debuggability.
### 7.4.3 Data Retention
| Environment | Hot Storage | Warm Storage | Cold Archive |
| ----------- | ----------- | ------------ | ------------ |
| Development | 24 hours | N/A | N/A |
| Staging | 7 days | N/A | N/A |
| Production | 7 days | 30 days | many years |
---
## 7.5 Integration Checklist

- [ ] Deploy collector cluster with high availability
- [ ] Configure tail-based sampling for error/latency traces
- [ ] Set up Grafana dashboards for trace visualization
- [ ] Configure alerts for trace anomalies
- [ ] Establish data retention policies
- [ ] Test trace correlation with logs and metrics
---
## 7.6 Grafana Dashboard Examples
Pre-built dashboards for xrpld observability.
### 7.6.1 Consensus Health Dashboard
A Tempo-backed dashboard (uid `xrpld-consensus-health`) with four panels, all driven by TraceQL:
- **Consensus Round Duration** (timeseries, ms): average `consensus.round` span duration per node instance, with yellow/red thresholds at 4s/5s.
- **Phase Duration Breakdown** (barchart): average duration of `consensus.phase.*` spans grouped by span name.
- **Proposers per Round** (stat): average of the `span.proposers` attribute on `consensus.round` spans.
- **Recent Slow Rounds (>5s)** (table): `consensus.round` spans filtered to `duration > 5s`.
The underlying TraceQL queries are listed in section 7.7.3 and used throughout this doc.
### 7.6.2 Node Overview Dashboard
A Tempo-backed dashboard (uid `xrpld-node-overview`) with four panels:
- **Active Nodes** (stat): count of distinct `resource.service.instance.id` values seen for the `xrpld` service.
- **Total Transactions (1h)** (stat): count of `tx.receive` spans.
- **Error Rate** (gauge, percent): ratio of `status.code=error` spans to all spans, with yellow/red thresholds at 1%/5%.
- **Service Map** (nodeGraph): Tempo-generated service dependency graph.
### 7.6.3 Alert Rules
Grafana provisions three TraceQL-based alert rules (group `xrpld-tracing-alerts`, evaluated every 1m) against the Tempo datasource:
- **Consensus Round Slow** (warning, `for: 5m`): fires when average `consensus.round` duration exceeds 5s.
```
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name="consensus.round"} | avg(duration) > 5s
```
- **RPC Error Rate Spike** (critical, `for: 2m`): fires when the error rate across `rpc.command.*` spans exceeds 5%.
```
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name=~"rpc.command.*" && status.code=error} | rate() > 0.05
```
- **Transaction Throughput Drop** (warning, `for: 10m`): fires when the `tx.receive` span rate falls below 10/s.
```
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && name="tx.receive"} | rate() < 10
```
> **Note**: The first two rules use TraceQL aggregates (`avg(duration)`, `rate()`), which require Tempo 2.3+ with TraceQL metrics enabled. Verify aggregate query support in your Tempo version before provisioning.

## 7.7 PerfLog and Insight Correlation

```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **xrpld Node (three sources)**: A single node emits three independent data streams -- OpenTelemetry spans, PerfLog JSON logs, and Beast Insight StatsD metrics.
- **Data Collection layer**: Each stream has its own collector -- OTel Collector for spans, Promtail/Fluentd for logs, and a StatsD exporter for metrics. They operate independently.
- **Storage layer (Tempo, Loki, Prometheus)**: Each data type lands in a purpose-built store optimized for its query patterns (trace search, log grep, metric aggregation).
- **Grafana Correlation Panel**: The key integration point -- Grafana queries all three stores and links them via shared fields (`trace_id`, `tx_hash`, `ledger_seq`), enabling a single-pane debugging experience.
### 7.7.2 Correlation Fields
| Source | Field | Link To | Purpose |
| ----------- | ------------------- | ------------- | -------------------------- |
| **Trace** | `trace_id` | Logs | Find log entries for trace |
| **Trace** | `tx_hash` | Logs, Metrics | Find TX-related data |
| **Trace** | `ledger_seq` | Logs | Find ledger-related logs |
| **PerfLog** | `trace_id` (new) | Traces | Jump to trace from log |
| **PerfLog** | `ledger_seq` | Traces | Find consensus trace |
| **Insight** | `exemplar.trace_id` | Traces | Jump from metric spike |
### 7.7.3 Example: Debugging a Slow Transaction
**Step 1: Find the trace**
```
# In Grafana Explore with Tempo
{resource.service.name="xrpld" && span.tx_hash="ABC123..."}
```
**Step 2: Get the trace_id from the trace view**
```
Trace ID: 4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736
```
**Step 3: Find related PerfLog entries**
```
# In Grafana Explore with Loki
{job="xrpld"} |= "4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736"
```
**Step 4: Check Insight metrics for the time window**
```
# In Grafana with Prometheus
rate(xrpld_tx_applied_total[1m])
@ timestamp_from_trace
```
### 7.7.4 Unified Dashboard Example
A single dashboard (uid `xrpld-unified`) that ties traces, metrics, and logs together across the Tempo, Prometheus, and Loki datasources:
- **Transaction Latency (Traces)** (timeseries, Tempo): `histogram_over_time(duration)` of `tx.receive` spans.
- **Transaction Rate (Metrics)** (timeseries, Prometheus): `rate(xrpld_tx_received_total[5m])` per instance, with a data link that opens the matching `tx.receive` traces in Tempo.
- **Recent Logs** (logs, Loki): `{job="xrpld"} | json`.
- **Trace Search** (table, Tempo): all `xrpld` traces, with per-row data links on `traceID` that jump to the trace in Tempo and to the correlated logs in Loki (`{job="xrpld"} |= "<traceID>"`).
The cross-datasource data links are what make this a single-pane debugging view; the correlation fields they rely on are listed in section 7.7.2.

**Reading the diagram:**
- **rpc.request (blue, top)**: The entry point — every traced transaction starts as an RPC call; this root span is the parent of all downstream work.
- **tx.validate and pathfind.request (green/teal, first fork)**: The RPC request fans out into transaction validation and, for cross-currency payments, a PathFinding branch (`pathfind.request` -> `pathfind.compute`).
- **tx.relay -> Peer Spans (teal, middle)**: After validation, the transaction is relayed to peers A, B, and C in parallel; each `peer.send` is a sibling child span showing fan-out across the network.
- **context propagation (dashed arrow)**: The dotted line from `peer.send Peer A` to `consensus.round` represents the trace context crossing a node boundary — the receiving validator picks up the same `trace_id` and continues the trace.
- **consensus.round -> tx.apply -> TxQ Spans (green, lower)**: Once consensus accepts the transaction, it is applied to the ledger; the TxQ spans (`txq.enqueue`, `txq.apply`, `fee.escalate`) capture queue depth and fee escalation behavior.
- **Validator Spans (purple, detached)**: `validator.list.fetch` and `validator.manifest` are independent workflows for UNL management — they run on their own traces and are linked to consensus via Span Links, not parent-child relationships.

# [OpenTelemetry](00-tracing-fundamentals.md) Distributed Tracing Implementation Plan for xrpld (xrpld)
## Executive Summary
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
This document provides a comprehensive implementation plan for integrating OpenTelemetry distributed tracing into the xrpld XRP Ledger node software. The plan addresses the unique challenges of a decentralized peer-to-peer system where trace context must propagate across network boundaries between independent nodes.
### Key Benefits
- **End-to-end transaction visibility**: Track transactions from submission through consensus to ledger inclusion
- **Consensus round analysis**: Understand timing and behavior of consensus phases across validators
- **RPC performance insights**: Identify slow handlers and optimize response times
- **Network topology understanding**: Visualize message propagation patterns between peers
- **Incident debugging**: Correlate events across distributed nodes during issues
### Estimated Performance Overhead
| Metric | Overhead | Notes |
| ------------- | ---------- | ----------------------------------- |
| CPU | 1-3% | Span creation and attribute setting |
| Memory | 2-5 MB | Batch buffer for pending spans |
| Network | 10-50 KB/s | Compressed OTLP export to collector |
| Latency (p99) | <2% | With proper sampling configuration |

## 0. Tracing Fundamentals
This document introduces distributed tracing concepts for readers unfamiliar with the domain. It covers what traces and spans are, how parent-child and follows-from relationships model causality, how context propagates across service boundaries, and how sampling controls data volume. It also maps these concepts to xrpld-specific scenarios like transaction relay and consensus.
➡️ **[Read Tracing Fundamentals](./00-tracing-fundamentals.md)**
---
## 1. Architecture Analysis
> **WS** = WebSocket | **TxQ** = Transaction Queue
The xrpld node consists of several key components that require instrumentation for comprehensive distributed tracing. The main areas include the RPC server (HTTP/WebSocket), Overlay P2P network, Consensus mechanism (RCLConsensus), JobQueue for async task execution, PathFinding, Transaction Queue (TxQ), fee escalation (LoadManager), ledger acquisition, validator management, and existing observability infrastructure (PerfLog, Insight/StatsD, Journal logging).
Key trace points span across transaction submission via RPC, peer-to-peer message propagation, consensus round execution, ledger building, path computation, transaction queue behavior, fee escalation, and validator health. The implementation prioritizes high-value, low-risk components first: RPC handlers provide immediate value with minimal risk, while consensus tracing requires careful implementation to avoid timing impacts.
➡️ **[Read full Architecture Analysis](./01-architecture-analysis.md)**
---
## 2. Design Decisions
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol | **CNCF** = Cloud Native Computing Foundation
The OpenTelemetry C++ SDK is selected for its CNCF backing, active development, and native performance characteristics. Traces are exported via OTLP/gRPC (primary) or OTLP/HTTP (fallback) to an OpenTelemetry Collector, which provides flexible routing and sampling.
Span naming follows a hierarchical `<component>.<operation>` convention (e.g., `rpc.submit`, `tx.relay`, `consensus.round`). Context propagation uses W3C Trace Context headers for HTTP and embedded Protocol Buffer fields for P2P messages. The implementation coexists with existing PerfLog and Insight observability systems through correlation IDs.
**Data Collection & Privacy**: Telemetry collects only operational metadata (timing, counts, hashes) — never sensitive content (private keys, balances, amounts, raw payloads). Privacy protection includes account hashing, configurable redaction, sampling, and collector-level filtering. Node operators retain full control over telemetry configuration.
➡️ **[Read full Design Decisions](./02-design-decisions.md)**
---
## 3. Implementation Strategy
The telemetry code is organized under `include/xrpl/telemetry/` for headers and `src/libxrpl/telemetry/` for implementation. Key principles include RAII-based span management via `SpanGuard` (with `discard()` for dropping unwanted spans), a `FilteringSpanProcessor` that intercepts `OnEnd()` to prevent discarded spans from entering the export pipeline, conditional compilation with `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY`, and minimal runtime overhead through batch processing and efficient sampling.
Performance optimization strategies include head sampling fixed at 100% (intentionally not configurable, so trace keep/drop decisions stay coherent across nodes), tail-based sampling at the collector for errors and slow traces to reduce volume, batch export to reduce network overhead, and conditional instrumentation that compiles to no-ops when disabled.
➡️ **[Read full Implementation Strategy](./03-implementation-strategy.md)**
---
## 5. Configuration Reference
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol | **APM** = Application Performance Monitoring
Configuration is handled through the `[telemetry]` section in `xrpld.cfg` with options for enabling/disabling, exporter selection, endpoint configuration, sampling ratios, and component-level filtering. CMake integration includes a `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY` option for compile-time control.
OpenTelemetry Collector configurations are provided for development and production (with tail-based sampling, Tempo, and Elastic APM). Docker Compose examples enable quick local development environment setup.
➡️ **[View full Configuration Reference](./05-configuration-reference.md)**
---
## 6. Implementation Phases
The implementation spans 9 weeks across 5 phases:
| Phase | Duration | Focus | Key Deliverables |
| ----- | --------- | ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| 1 | Weeks 1-2 | Core Infrastructure | SDK integration, Telemetry interface, Configuration |
| 2 | Weeks 3-4 | RPC Tracing | HTTP context extraction, Handler instrumentation |
| 3 | Weeks 5-6 | Transaction Tracing | Protocol Buffer context, Relay propagation |
| 4 | Weeks 7-8 | Consensus Tracing | Round spans, Proposal/validation tracing |
| 5 | Week 9 | Documentation | Runbook, Dashboards, Training |
**Total Effort**: 47 person-days (2 developers working in parallel)
➡️ **[View full Implementation Phases](./06-implementation-phases.md)**
---
## 7. Observability Backends
> **APM** = Application Performance Monitoring | **GCS** = Google Cloud Storage
Grafana Tempo is recommended for all environments due to its cost-effectiveness and Grafana integration, while Elastic APM is ideal for organizations with existing Elastic infrastructure.
The recommended production architecture uses a gateway collector pattern with regional collectors performing tail-based sampling, routing traces to multiple backends (Tempo for primary storage, Elastic for log correlation, S3/GCS for long-term archive).
➡️ **[View Observability Backend Recommendations](./07-observability-backends.md)**
---
## 8. Appendix
The appendix contains a glossary of OpenTelemetry and xrpld-specific terms, references to external documentation and specifications, version history for this implementation plan, and a complete document index.
➡️ **[View Appendix](./08-appendix.md)**
---
## Securing the OTel Pipeline
Threat model and hardening guidance for production deployments where xrpld nodes ship telemetry to a centrally-hosted collector across an untrusted network. Covers the two attack surfaces (collector ingress and peer trace-context spoofing) and the chosen defenses: mTLS as primary collector auth, NetworkPolicy as defense-in-depth, and source-side validation plus per-peer rate limiting for the `protocol::TraceContext` field on peer messages.

---
## Task 2.1: W3C Trace Context HTTP Header Extraction
**Status**: DEFERRED → Phase 3
**Reason**: W3C context propagation (`traceparent`/`tracestate` headers) requires a consumer — in Phase 2, RPC spans are entirely local to the node. Phase 3 introduces cross-node transaction tracing via protobuf context propagation, which is the first use case for extracted trace context. Implementing it here without a consumer would be dead code.
**Implemented in**: `pratik/otel-phase3-tx-tracing``TraceContextPropagator.h/.cpp`
---
## Task 2.2: Per-Category Span Creation
**Status**: COMPLETE (superseded by Phase 1c design)
**Original plan**: Add `XRPL_TRACE_PEER` and `XRPL_TRACE_LEDGER` macros.
**Actual implementation**: Phase 1c replaced all tracing macros with the `SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory, prefix, name)` factory pattern. The `TraceCategory` enum (`Rpc`, `Transactions`, `Consensus`, `Peer`, `Ledger`) serves the same conditional-creation purpose without macros. No separate task needed — the factory already supports all categories.
---
## Task 2.3: Add shouldTraceLedger() to Telemetry Interface
**Objective**: The `Setup` struct has a `traceLedger` field but there's no corresponding virtual method. Add it for interface completeness.
**What to do**:
- Edit `include/xrpl/telemetry/Telemetry.h`:
- Add `virtual bool shouldTraceLedger() const = 0;`
- Update all implementations:
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/Telemetry.cpp` (TelemetryImpl, NullTelemetryOtel)
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/NullTelemetry.cpp` (NullTelemetry)
**Key modified files**:
- `include/xrpl/telemetry/Telemetry.h`
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/Telemetry.cpp`
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/NullTelemetry.cpp`
---
## Task 2.4: Unit Tests for Core Telemetry Infrastructure
**Status**: COMPLETE
**Objective**: Add unit tests for the core telemetry abstractions to validate correctness and catch regressions.
**Implemented**:
- `src/tests/libxrpl/telemetry/TelemetryConfig.cpp`:
- Test Setup defaults (all fields have correct initial values)
- Test `setupTelemetry` config parser (empty section, full section, edge cases)
- Test `samplingRatio` clamping (values outside 0.0-1.0)
- `src/tests/libxrpl/telemetry/SpanGuardFactory.cpp`:
- Test null guard methods are safe (setAttribute, setOk, setError, addEvent on null)
- Test category span returns null when telemetry disabled
- Test child/linked span null when no parent context
- Test move construction transfers ownership
- Test recordException safe on null guard
- Test discard() safe on null guard
- `src/tests/libxrpl/telemetry/main.cpp` — GTest runner
- `src/tests/libxrpl/CMakeLists.txt` — test target with optional OTel linking
---
## Task 2.5: Enhance RPC Span Attributes
**Status**: DEFERRED (low priority)
**Reason**: The high-value attributes (`command`, `version`, `role`, `status`) are already set by Phase 1c. The remaining HTTP transport-level attributes (`http.method`, `net.peer.ip`, `http.status_code`) provide limited additional insight since:
- `http.method` is always POST for JSON-RPC
- `net.peer.ip` is debug-level info available in logs
- `duration_ms` is redundant with span duration (OTel captures start/end time natively)
These can be added later if dashboard queries specifically need them. The node health attributes (Task 2.8) provide far more operational value and were prioritized instead.
---
## Task 2.6: Build Verification and Performance Baseline
**Objective**: Verify the build succeeds with and without telemetry, and establish a performance baseline.
**What to do**:
1. Build with `telemetry=ON` and verify no compilation errors
2. Build with `telemetry=OFF` and verify no regressions
3. Run existing unit tests to verify no breakage
4. Document any build issues in lessons.md
**Verification Checklist**:
- [ ] `conan install . --build=missing -o telemetry=True` succeeds
- [ ] `cmake --preset default -Dtelemetry=ON` configures correctly
- [ ] Build succeeds with telemetry ON
- [ ] Build succeeds with telemetry OFF
- [ ] Existing tests pass with telemetry ON
- [ ] Existing tests pass with telemetry OFF
---
## Task 2.8: RPC Span Attribute Enrichment — Node Health Context
**Status**: DROPPED.
Node health (`amendment_blocked`, `server_state`) is not part of the telemetry surface. Operators consume the same data via the existing `server_info` / `server_state` RPC commands, so duplicating it on traces adds storage and cardinality cost without new value. The OTel C++ SDK 1.18.0 also does not support runtime updates to the resource, ruling out resource-level emission of these dynamic-by-nature flags.
---
## Task 2.9: PathFind RPC Instrumentation
**Status**: COMPLETE
**Objective**: Trace the path_find and ripple_path_find RPC handlers to capture request latency and computation cost.
**Spans added**:
- `pathfind.request` — wraps `doPathFind()` and `doRipplePathFind()` RPC handlers
- `pathfind.compute` — wraps `PathRequest::doUpdate()` (`pathfind_fast` attr)
- `pathfind.update_all` — wraps `PathRequestManager::updateAll()` on ledger close (`pathfind_ledger_index`, `pathfind_num_requests` attrs; emitted only when active subscriptions exist)
- `pathfind.discover` — wraps the entire per-source-asset loop in `PathRequest::findPaths()` (`pathfind_search_level`, `pathfind_num_paths` attrs). One span per RPC call instead of N (one per source asset). Trade-off: per-asset breakdown is lost; storage and cardinality bounded.
**Attribute namespacing**: All pathfind attributes use the `pathfind_*` underscore form per the Phase 1c naming-spec rule 5.
**New file**: `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/PathFindSpanNames.h`
**Modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/rpc/handlers/orderbook/PathFind.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/rpc/handlers/orderbook/RipplePathFind.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/PathRequest.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/PathRequestManager.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/Pathfinder.cpp`
---
## Task 2.10: RPC and PathFind Span Attribute Gap Fill
**Status**: COMPLETE
**Objective**: Wire up workflow-identifying attributes that enable filtering and grouping traces by request characteristics without drilling into child spans.
**Attributes added**:
| Span | Attribute | Type | Source |
| ------------------- | ---------------------------- | ------ | --------------------------------- |
| `rpc.http_request` | `request_payload_size` | int64 | `request.body().size()` |
| `rpc.process` | `is_batch` | bool | `method == "batch"` check |
| `rpc.process` | `batch_size` | int64 | `params.size()` (only when batch) |
| `rpc.ws_message` | `command` | string | `jv[command]` or `jv[method]` |
| `rpc.command.*` | `load_type` | string | `context.loadType.label()` |
| `pathfind.compute` | `pathfind_dest_amount` | string | `saDstAmount_.getFullText()` |
| `pathfind.compute` | `pathfind_dest_currency` | string | `to_string(saDstAmount_.asset())` |
| `pathfind.discover` | `pathfind_num_source_assets` | int64 | `sourceAssets.size()` |
**New attr keys**: `RpcSpanNames.h` (`isBatch`, `batchSize`, `loadType`), `PathFindSpanNames.h` (`destAmount`, `destCurrency`, `numSourceAssets`).
**Modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/RpcSpanNames.h`
- `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/PathFindSpanNames.h`
- `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/ServerHandler.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/rpc/detail/RPCHandler.cpp`

## Task 3.1: Define TraceContext Protocol Buffer Message
**Objective**: Add trace context fields to the P2P protocol messages so trace IDs can propagate across nodes.
**What to do**:
- Edit `include/xrpl/proto/xrpl.proto` (or `src/xrpld/proto/ripple.proto`, wherever the proto is):
- Add `TraceContext` message definition:
```protobuf
message TraceContext {
bytes trace_id = 1; // 16-byte trace identifier
bytes span_id = 2; // 8-byte span identifier
uint32 trace_flags = 3; // bit 0 = sampled
string trace_state = 4; // W3C tracestate value
}
```
- Add `optional TraceContext trace_context = 1001;` to:
- `TMTransaction`
- `TMProposeSet` (for Phase 4 use)
- `TMValidation` (for Phase 4 use)
- Use high field numbers (1001+) to avoid conflicts with existing fields
- Regenerate protobuf C++ code
**Key modified files**:
- `include/xrpl/proto/xrpl.proto` (or equivalent)
**Reference**:
- [04-code-samples.md §4.4.1](./04-code-samples.md) — TraceContext message definition
- [02-design-decisions.md §2.5.2](./02-design-decisions.md) — Protocol buffer context propagation design
---
## Task 3.2: Implement Protobuf Context Serialization
**Objective**: Create utilities to serialize/deserialize OTel trace context to/from protobuf `TraceContext` messages.
**What to do**:
- Create `include/xrpl/telemetry/TraceContextPropagator.h` (extend from Phase 2 if exists, or add protobuf methods):
- Add protobuf-specific methods:
- `static Context extractFromProtobuf(protocol::TraceContext const& proto)` — reconstruct OTel context from protobuf fields
- `static void injectToProtobuf(Context const& ctx, protocol::TraceContext& proto)` — serialize current span context into protobuf fields
- Both methods guard behind `#ifdef XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY`
- Create/extend `src/libxrpl/telemetry/TraceContextPropagator.cpp`:
- Implement extraction: read trace_id (16 bytes), span_id (8 bytes), trace_flags from protobuf, construct `SpanContext`, wrap in `Context`
- Implement injection: get current span from context, serialize its TraceId, SpanId, and TraceFlags into protobuf fields
**Key new/modified files**:
- `include/xrpl/telemetry/TraceContextPropagator.h`
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/TraceContextPropagator.cpp`
**Reference**:
- [04-code-samples.md §4.4.2](./04-code-samples.md) — Full extract/inject implementation
---
## Task 3.3: Instrument PeerImp Transaction Handling
**Objective**: Add trace spans to the peer-level transaction receive and relay path.
**What to do**:
- Edit `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp`:
- In `onMessage(TMTransaction)` / `handleTransaction()`:
- Extract parent trace context from incoming `TMTransaction::trace_context` field (if present)
- Create `tx.receive` span as child of extracted context (or new root if none)
- Set attributes: `tx_hash`, `peer_id`, `tx_status`
- On HashRouter suppression (duplicate): set `suppressed=true`, add `tx.duplicate` event
- Wrap validation call with child span `tx.validate`
- Wrap relay with `tx.relay` span
- When relaying to peers:
- Inject current trace context into outgoing `TMTransaction::trace_context`
- Set `relay_count` attribute
- Use `SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Transactions, "tx", "receive")` factory
(Phase 1c replaced macros with the SpanGuard factory pattern)
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp`
**Reference**:
- [04-code-samples.md §4.5.1](./04-code-samples.md) — Full PeerImp instrumentation example
- [01-architecture-analysis.md §1.3](./01-architecture-analysis.md) — Transaction flow diagram
- [01-architecture-analysis.md §1.6](./01-architecture-analysis.md) — tx.receive trace point
---
## Task 3.4: Instrument NetworkOPs Transaction Processing
**Objective**: Trace the transaction processing pipeline in NetworkOPs, covering both sync and async paths.
**What to do**:
- Edit `src/xrpld/app/misc/NetworkOPs.cpp`:
- In `processTransaction()`:
- Create `tx.process` span
- Set attributes: `tx_hash`, `tx_type`, `local` (whether from RPC or peer)
- Record whether sync or async path is taken
- In `doTransactionAsync()`:
- Capture parent context before queuing
- Create `tx.queue` span with queue depth attribute
- Add event when transaction is dequeued for processing
- In `doTransactionSync()`:
- Create `tx.process_sync` span
- Record result (applied, queued, rejected)
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/misc/NetworkOPs.cpp`
**Reference**:
- [01-architecture-analysis.md §1.6](./01-architecture-analysis.md) — tx.validate and tx.process trace points
- [02-design-decisions.md §2.4.3](./02-design-decisions.md) — Transaction attribute schema
---
## Task 3.5: Instrument HashRouter for Dedup Visibility
**Objective**: Make transaction deduplication visible in traces by recording HashRouter decisions as span attributes/events.
**What to do**:
- Edit `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp` (in handleTransaction):
- After calling `HashRouter::shouldProcess()` or `addSuppressionPeer()`:
- Record `suppressed` attribute (true/false)
- Record `tx_flags` showing current HashRouter state (SAVED, TRUSTED, etc.)
- Add `tx.first_seen` or `tx.duplicate` event
- This is NOT a modification to HashRouter itself — just recording its decisions as span attributes in the existing PeerImp instrumentation from Task 3.3.
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp` (same changes as 3.3, logically grouped)
---
## Task 3.6: Context Propagation in Transaction Relay
**Status**: COMPLETE
**Objective**: Ensure trace context flows correctly when transactions are relayed between peers, creating linked spans across nodes.
**What was done**:
- **TX send side**: `NetworkOPs::apply()` now injects the tx.process span's trace
context into the outgoing `TMTransaction` protobuf before relay, using
`telemetry::injectSpanContext()`. The receiving node's `txReceiveSpan()` (already
wired in PeerImp) extracts the parent span_id and creates the tx.receive span
as a child of the sender's tx.process span.
- **Proposal send/receive**: `RCLConsensus::Adaptor::propose()` injects the
current thread's active span context into the `TMProposeSet` protobuf via
`telemetry::injectToProtobuf()`. PeerImp creates a
`consensus.proposal.receive` span that extracts the sender's trace context
as parent (via `ConsensusReceiveTracing.h`).
- **Validation send/receive**: `RCLConsensus::Adaptor::validate()` injects
the current thread's active span context into the `TMValidation` protobuf.
PeerImp creates a `consensus.validation.receive` span that extracts the
sender's trace context as parent.
- **Edge cases**: Missing trace context (older peers) degrades gracefully to
standalone spans. Invalid/corrupted context is treated as absent. Trace
flags are propagated and respected.
**New infrastructure**:
- `SpanGuard::getTraceBytes()` — extracts raw trace_id/span_id/trace_flags
from a span without exposing OTel types. Safe to call from any thread.
- `PropagationHelpers.h` — `injectSpanContext(SpanGuard&, proto)` bridge
between SpanGuard and protobuf TraceContext.
- `TraceContextPropagator.h` — `injectToProtobuf(ctx, proto)` for
same-thread injection via OTel RuntimeContext (used in propose/validate).
- `ConsensusReceiveTracing.h` — `proposalReceiveSpan()` and
`validationReceiveSpan()` helper functions that create receive spans with
optional parent context extraction from incoming protobuf messages.
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/misc/NetworkOPs.cpp` — tx relay injection
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp` — proposal/validation send injection
- `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp` — proposal/validation receive spans
- `include/xrpl/telemetry/SpanGuard.h` — `TraceBytes` struct, `getTraceBytes()`
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/SpanGuard.cpp` — `getTraceBytes()` implementation
- `src/xrpld/telemetry/PropagationHelpers.h` — inject helpers (new file)
- `src/xrpld/telemetry/ConsensusReceiveTracing.h` — receive span helpers (new file)
**Reference**:

## Task 3.7: Build Verification and Testing
**Objective**: Verify all Phase 3 changes compile and work correctly.
**What to do**:
1. Build with `telemetry=ON` — verify no compilation errors
2. Build with `telemetry=OFF` — verify no regressions
3. Run existing unit tests
4. Verify protobuf regeneration produces correct C++ code
5. Document any issues encountered
**Verification Checklist**:
- [ ] Protobuf changes generate valid C++
- [ ] Build succeeds with telemetry ON
- [ ] Build succeeds with telemetry OFF
- [ ] Existing tests pass
- [ ] No undefined symbols from new telemetry calls
---
## Task 3.8: Transaction Span Peer Version Attribute
> **Source**: [External Dashboard Parity](../docs/superpowers/specs/2026-03-30-external-dashboard-parity-design.md) — adds peer version context inspired by the community [xrpl-validator-dashboard](https://github.com/realgrapedrop/xrpl-validator-dashboard).
>
> **Upstream**: Phase 2 (RPC span infrastructure must exist).
> **Downstream**: Phase 10 (validation checks for this attribute).
**Objective**: Add the relaying peer's xrpld version to `tx.receive` spans so operators can correlate transaction issues with peer version mismatches during network upgrades.
**What to do**:
- Edit `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp`:
- In the `tx.receive` span block (after existing `peer_id` setAttribute call):
- Add `peer_version` (string) — from `this->getVersion()`
- Only set if `getVersion()` returns a non-empty string (avoid empty-string attributes)
**New span attribute**:
| Attribute | Type | Source | Example |
| -------------- | ------ | -------------------- | --------------- |
| `peer_version` | string | `peer->getVersion()` | `"xrpld-2.4.0"` |
**Rationale**: Transaction relay is where version mismatches cause subtle serialization or validation bugs. Tracing "this tx came from a v2.3.0 peer" helps diagnose compatibility issues. The community dashboard tracks peer versions externally; this brings version awareness into the trace itself.
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp`
**Exit Criteria**:
- [ ] `tx.receive` spans carry `peer_version` attribute with a non-empty version string
- [ ] Attribute is omitted (not set to empty string) when `getVersion()` returns empty
- [ ] Attribute visible in Jaeger span detail view
---
## Task 3.9: Deterministic Transaction Trace ID
> **Upstream**: Task 3.2 (protobuf serialization), Task 3.3 (PeerImp span exists).
> **Downstream**: Phase 10 (workload validation can query by tx hash directly).
> **Pattern**: Mirrors the consensus deterministic trace ID in Phase 4a
> (`createDeterministicContext` in `RCLConsensus.cpp`), adapted for transactions.
**Objective**: Derive the trace_id for transaction spans deterministically from the
transaction hash so that all nodes handling the same transaction independently produce
spans under the same trace_id — regardless of whether protobuf context propagation
succeeds.
**Why**: The current approach creates spans with random trace_ids and relies entirely
on protobuf `TraceContext` propagation to link them. If any hop in the relay chain
drops the context (older peers, message corruption, mixed-version networks), the trace
splits and downstream spans become impossible to find. With deterministic trace_ids,
correlation is guaranteed because every node derives the same trace_id from the same
`txID`.
**Approach — deterministic trace_id + protobuf span_id propagation**:
1. Derive `trace_id = txHash[0:16]` (first 16 bytes of the 32-byte transaction hash).
2. Generate a random 8-byte `span_id` per node (each node's span is unique within
the shared trace).
3. Create the span under this deterministic context as parent.
4. **Additionally**, if protobuf `TraceContext` is present in the incoming
`TMTransaction` message, extract the sender's `span_id` and use it as the span's
parent — this preserves parent-child ordering in the trace tree.
5. If protobuf context is absent (older peer, first hop), the span still has the
correct deterministic `trace_id` — it appears as a sibling root in the same trace
rather than being lost.
This gives the best of both worlds: guaranteed cross-node correlation via deterministic
`trace_id`, plus parent-child relay ordering via protobuf `span_id` when available.
**What to do**:
- Create `createDeterministicTxContext(uint256 const& txHash)` utility function:
- Location: shared header or file-local in `PeerImp.cpp` and `NetworkOPs.cpp`
(or a shared telemetry utility if both need it).
- Pattern: identical to `createDeterministicContext(uint256 const& ledgerId)` in
`RCLConsensus.cpp` — take `txHash[0:16]` as trace_id, random span_id via
`default_prng()`, sampled flag set, `remote=false`.
- Guard behind `#ifdef XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY`.
```cpp
opentelemetry::context::Context
createDeterministicTxContext(uint256 const& txHash)
{
namespace trace = opentelemetry::trace;
// First 16 bytes of the 32-byte tx hash as trace ID.
trace::TraceId traceId(
opentelemetry::nostd::span<uint8_t const, 16>(txHash.data(), 16));
// Random span_id so each node's span is unique within the trace.
uint8_t spanIdBytes[8];
auto const rval = default_prng()();
std::memcpy(spanIdBytes, &rval, sizeof(spanIdBytes));
trace::SpanId spanId(
opentelemetry::nostd::span<uint8_t const, 8>(spanIdBytes, 8));
trace::SpanContext syntheticCtx(
traceId, spanId, trace::TraceFlags(1), /* remote = */ false);
return opentelemetry::context::Context{}.SetValue(
trace::kSpanKey,
opentelemetry::nostd::shared_ptr<trace::Span>(
new trace::DefaultSpan(syntheticCtx)));
}
```
- Edit `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp` — restructure `handleTransaction()`:
- **Move span creation after deserialization** (txID must be known first):
1. Deserialize `STTx` and get `txID` (existing code at line ~1382).
2. Create deterministic parent context: `auto detCtx = createDeterministicTxContext(txID)`.
3. If `m->has_trace_context()`: extract protobuf context via `extractFromProtobuf()`,
**combine** with deterministic trace_id — use the protobuf span_id as parent
to preserve relay ordering, but override trace_id with the deterministic one.
4. If no protobuf context: create span under `detCtx` directly.
5. Set all existing attributes (`hash`, `peerId`, `peerVersion`, `suppressed`, etc.).
- **Combining deterministic trace_id with protobuf parent span_id**:
When both are available, construct a synthetic `SpanContext` with:
- `trace_id` = `txHash[0:16]` (deterministic)
- `span_id` = extracted from protobuf (sender's span_id → becomes parent)
- `trace_flags` = from protobuf
- `remote` = true (came from another node)
```cpp
// Pseudo-code for the combined context:
auto detTraceId = trace::TraceId(txHash.data(), 16);
auto remoteSpanId = /* from extractFromProtobuf */;
auto remoteFlags = /* from extractFromProtobuf */;
trace::SpanContext combinedCtx(
detTraceId, remoteSpanId, remoteFlags, /* remote = */ true);
// Use as parent context for the new span.
```
- Edit `src/xrpld/app/misc/NetworkOPs.cpp` — update `processTransaction()`:
- `transaction->getID()` is already available at the top of the function.
- Create deterministic parent context from `txID`.
- Create `tx.process` span under this context.
- No protobuf context to extract here (NetworkOPs is intra-node), so
deterministic context alone is sufficient.
- Add `trace_strategy` attribute to spans:
- Add `inline constexpr auto traceStrategy = "trace_strategy";`
to `TxSpanNames.h`.
- Set on each tx span: `span.setAttribute(tx_span::attr::traceStrategy, "deterministic")`.
**Key new/modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp` — restructured span creation
- `src/xrpld/app/misc/NetworkOPs.cpp` — deterministic context for tx.process
- `src/xrpld/app/misc/TxSpanNames.h` — new `traceStrategy` attribute constant
- New or shared utility for `createDeterministicTxContext()` (location TBD: could be
a shared header like `include/xrpl/telemetry/DeterministicContext.h`, or file-local
if only used in two places)
**Interaction with existing tasks**:
- **Task 3.3 (PeerImp instrumentation)**: The span creation in `handleTransaction()`
must be restructured — the span currently starts before `txID` is known. This task
moves it after deserialization.
- **Task 3.6 (Relay context propagation)**: Protobuf injection at the relay site
remains the same — `injectToProtobuf()` serializes the current span's `span_id`.
The receiver extracts it and combines with the deterministic `trace_id`.
- **Phase 4a (Consensus deterministic trace ID)**: This task follows the same pattern.
Consider extracting a shared utility (e.g., `createDeterministicContext(uint256)`)
that both consensus and transaction tracing use.
**Exit Criteria**:
- [ ] `tx.receive` and `tx.process` spans have deterministic trace_id = `txHash[0:16]`
- [ ] All nodes handling the same transaction produce spans under the same trace_id
- [x] Protobuf `span_id` propagation still works when available (parent-child ordering)
- [ ] Missing protobuf context (old peer) degrades gracefully to sibling spans, not lost traces
- [ ] `trace_strategy` attribute set to `"deterministic"` on all tx spans
- [ ] Trace queryable by tx hash (truncate hash → trace_id → direct lookup in Tempo)
**Deliverables implemented (not in original plan)**:
- **`SpanGuard::txSpan()` factory method** (`include/xrpl/telemetry/SpanGuard.h`):
Two overloads for creating transaction spans with deterministic trace IDs:
- `txSpan(category, group, name, txHash)` — standalone span (deterministic
trace_id from `txHash[0:16]`, no parent span_id).
- `txSpan(category, group, name, txHash, parentCtx)` — child span (deterministic
trace_id combined with protobuf-extracted parent span_id for relay ordering).
- **`TxTracing.h` helper functions** (`src/xrpld/overlay/detail/TxTracing.h`):
File-local helpers that wrap `SpanGuard::txSpan()` for the two main PeerImp call
sites:
- `txReceiveSpan(txHash, parentCtx)` — creates `tx.receive` span with
deterministic trace_id and optional protobuf parent context.
- `txProcessSpan(txHash)` — creates `tx.process` span with deterministic
trace_id only (no protobuf parent, used intra-node).
- **Note**: `TxTracing.h` includes `xrpl.pb.h` unconditionally (outside
`#ifdef XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY`) because `protocol::TMTransaction` appears in
the function signatures regardless of telemetry build mode.

**Spans added**:
- `txq.enqueue` — wraps `TxQ::apply()` with tx_hash attribute
- `txq.apply_direct` — wraps `TxQ::tryDirectApply()` fast-path
- `txq.batch_clear` — wraps `TxQ::tryClearAccountQueueUpThruTx()`
- `txq.accept` — wraps `TxQ::accept()` ledger-close dequeue with queue_size attr

## Task 3.11: TX and TxQ Span Attribute Gap Fill
**Status**: COMPLETE
**Objective**: Add workflow-identifying attributes to transaction spans so operators can filter by transaction type and see outcomes without off-chain correlation.
**Attributes added**:
| Span | Attribute | Type | Source |
| ----------------- | -------------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `tx.process` | `tx_type` | string | `TxFormats::getInstance().findByType(stx->getTxnType())->getName()` |

| `txq.enqueue` | `txq_status` | string | `queued` / `applied_direct` / `applied` / `rejected` |
| `txq.enqueue` | `fee_level_paid` | int64 | `getFeeLevelPaid(view, *tx).value()` |

| `txq.batch_clear` | `num_cleared` | int64 | queued txs cleared ahead of the applying tx |
| `txq.cleanup` | `expired_count` | int64 | entries dropped for passed `LastLedgerSequence` |
| `txq.accept_tx` | `txq_status` | string | `applied` / `failed` / `retried` |
| `txq.accept` | `ledger_changed` | bool | set at end of accept loop |
**New attr keys**: `TxSpanNames.h` (`txType`, `fee`, `sequence`, `terResult`, `applied`), `TxQSpanNames.h` (`txType`).
**Modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/misc/TxSpanNames.h`
- `src/xrpld/app/misc/detail/TxQSpanNames.h`
- `src/xrpld/app/misc/NetworkOPs.cpp`

## Task 4.1: Instrument Consensus Round Start ✅
**Objective**: Create a root span for each consensus round that captures the round's key parameters.
**Status**: DONE (implemented via Task 4a.2 `startRoundTracing()` helper).
**What was done**:
- `RCLConsensus::Adaptor::startRoundTracing()` creates `consensus.round` span
via `SpanGuard::hashSpan()` (deterministic) or `SpanGuard::span()` (attribute strategy)
- Attributes set: `xrpl.consensus.ledger_id`, `xrpl.ledger.seq`,
`xrpl.consensus.mode`, `trace_strategy`, `xrpl.consensus.round_id`
- Round span stored as `roundSpan_` member in `RCLConsensus::Adaptor`
- `roundSpanContext_` snapshot captured for cross-thread span linking
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.h` (span and context members)
**Reference**:

---
## Task 4.2: Instrument Phase Transitions ✅
**Objective**: Create child spans for each consensus phase (open, establish, accept) to show timing breakdown.
**Status**: DONE. All consensus phases are now instrumented:
- `consensus.establish` — created in `Consensus.h::startEstablishTracing()`
- `consensus.ledger_close` — created in `RCLConsensus.cpp::onClose()`
- `consensus.accept` / `consensus.accept.apply` — created in `onAccept()` / `doAccept()`
- `consensus.phase.open``openSpan_` member in `Consensus.h`, created in `startRoundInternal()`, ended in `closeLedger()`
**Design notes**:
- `phase` attribute — phases are distinguished by span names instead
- `phase.enter` / `phase.exit` events — not added (span start/end serves this purpose)
- `phase_duration_ms` attribute — not set (span duration captures this)
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/consensus/Consensus.h` (template-level establish phase tracking)
**Reference**:
- [04-code-samples.md §4.5.2](./04-code-samples.md) — phaseTransition instrumentation
---
## Task 4.3: Instrument Proposal Handling ✅
**Objective**: Trace proposal send and receive to show validator coordination.
**Status**: DONE. Both send and receive paths are instrumented.
**What was done**:
- In `Adaptor::propose()`:
- Creates `consensus.proposal.send` span via `SpanGuard::span()`
- Sets `xrpl.consensus.round` attribute
- In `PeerImp::onMessage(TMProposeSet)`:
- Creates `consensus.proposal.receive` span
- Sets `trusted` attribute (bool)
**Not implemented** (deferred to Phase 4b — cross-node propagation):
- `consensus.proposal.relay` span in `share(RCLCxPeerPos)` — requires trace context injection
- Trace context injection/extraction for `TMProposeSet::trace_context`
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
**Reference**:
- [04-code-samples.md §4.5.2](./04-code-samples.md) — peerProposal instrumentation
- [02-design-decisions.md §2.4.4](./02-design-decisions.md) — Consensus attribute schema
---
## Task 4.4: Instrument Validation Handling ✅
**Objective**: Trace validation send and receive to show ledger validation flow.
**Status**: DONE. Both send and receive paths are instrumented.
**What was done**:
- In `Adaptor::validate()` (called from `doAccept()`):
- Creates `consensus.validation.send` span via `Adaptor::createValidationSpan()`
- Uses `SpanGuard::linkedSpan()` to create a follows-from link to the round span
- Thread-safe: uses `roundSpanContext_` snapshot (captured on consensus thread,
read on jtACCEPT thread)
- Sets `xrpl.ledger.seq` and `proposing` attributes
- In `PeerImp::onMessage(TMValidation)`:
- Creates `consensus.validation.receive` span
- Sets `trusted` attribute (bool)
- Sets `xrpl.ledger.seq` attribute
**Not implemented** (deferred to Phase 4b — cross-node propagation):
- Validated ledger hash, signing time attributes on send span (see Task 4.8)
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
---
## Task 4.5: Add Consensus-Specific Attributes ✅
**Objective**: Enrich consensus spans with detailed attributes for debugging and analysis.
**Status**: DONE. All core attributes are set across various spans, including the previously missing `tx_count` and `disputes_count`.
**Implemented attributes** (across various spans):
- `xrpl.ledger.seq` — on `consensus.round`, `consensus.accept.apply`
- `xrpl.consensus.round` — on `consensus.proposal.send`
- `xrpl.consensus.mode` — on `consensus.round`, `consensus.ledger_close`
- `proposers` — on `consensus.accept`, `consensus.establish`, `consensus.update_positions`
- `converge_percent` — on `consensus.establish`, `consensus.update_positions`, `consensus.check`
- `tx_count` — on `consensus.accept.apply` span (in `doAccept()`)
- `disputes_count` — on `consensus.update_positions` span (in `updateOurPositions()`)
**Design notes**:
- `phase` — phases distinguished by span names instead
- `phase_duration_ms` — span duration captures this
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/consensus/Consensus.h`
---
## Task 4.6: Correlate Transaction and Consensus Traces ✅
**Objective**: Link transaction traces from Phase 3 with consensus traces so you can follow a transaction from submission through consensus into the ledger.
**Status**: DONE. Transaction-consensus correlation implemented via `tx.included` events in `doAccept()`.
**What was done**:
- In `doAccept()` (RCLConsensus.cpp):
- Records `tx.included` events on the `consensus.accept.apply` span for each transaction in the accepted set
- Each event includes `xrpl.tx.id` attribute with the transaction hash
- This links consensus traces to individual transactions
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
---
## Task 4.7: Build Verification and Testing ✅
**Objective**: Verify all Phase 4 changes compile and don't affect consensus timing.
**What to do**:
1. Build with `telemetry=ON` — verify no compilation errors
2. Build with `telemetry=OFF` — verify no regressions (critical for consensus code)
3. Run existing consensus-related unit tests
4. Verify that `SpanGuard` factory methods compile to no-ops when disabled
5. Check that no consensus-critical code paths are affected by instrumentation overhead
**Verification Checklist**:
- [x] Build succeeds with telemetry ON
- [x] Build succeeds with telemetry OFF
- [x] Existing consensus tests pass
- [x] `SpanGuard` no-op implementation prevents overhead when telemetry is OFF
- [x] Phase timing instrumentation doesn't use blocking operations
---
## Task 4.8: Consensus Validation Span Enrichment — NOT DONE
> **Source**: [External Dashboard Parity](../docs/superpowers/specs/2026-03-30-external-dashboard-parity-design.md) — adds validation agreement context inspired by the community [xrpl-validator-dashboard](https://github.com/realgrapedrop/xrpl-validator-dashboard).
>
> **Upstream**: Phase 4 tasks 4.1-4.4 (span creation must exist).
> **Downstream**: Phase 7 (ValidationTracker reads these attributes), Phase 10 (validation checks).
**Objective**: Add ledger hash, validation type, and quorum data to consensus validation spans on both send and receive paths. This enables trace-level validation agreement analysis — filter by ledger hash to see which validators agreed for a given ledger.
**Status**: Not implemented. None of the enrichment attributes are set. The `consensus.validation.send` span only has `ledger.seq` and `proposing`. The `consensus.accept` span has `quorum` set to `result.proposers` (not the actual validator quorum from `app_.validators().quorum()`). No `PeerImp.cpp` changes were made.
**What to do**:
- Edit `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`:
- On the `consensus.validation.send` span (in `validate()` / `doAccept()`):
- Add `xrpl.validation.ledger_hash` (string) — the ledger hash being validated
- Add `xrpl.validation.full` (bool) — whether this is a full validation (not partial)
- On the `consensus.accept` span (in `onAccept()`):
- Add `validation_quorum` (int64) — from `app_.validators().quorum()`
- Add `proposers_validated` (int64) — from `result.proposers`
- Edit `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp`:
- On the `peer.validation.receive` span:
- Add `xrpl.peer.validation.ledger_hash` (string) — from deserialized `STValidation` object
- Add `xrpl.peer.validation.full` (bool) — from `STValidation` flags
**New span attributes**:
| Span | Attribute | Type | Source |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | ------ | --------------------------------- |
| `consensus.validation.send` | `xrpl.validation.ledger_hash` | string | Ledger hash from validate() args |
| `consensus.validation.send` | `xrpl.validation.full` | bool | Full vs partial validation |
| `peer.validation.receive` | `xrpl.peer.validation.ledger_hash` | string | From STValidation deserialization |
| `peer.validation.receive` | `xrpl.peer.validation.full` | bool | From STValidation flags |
| `consensus.accept` | `validation_quorum` | int64 | `app_.validators().quorum()` |
| `consensus.accept` | `proposers_validated` | int64 | `result.proposers` |
**Rationale**: The external dashboard's most valuable feature is validation agreement tracking. By recording the ledger hash on both outgoing and incoming validation spans, we create the raw data for agreement analysis at the trace level. Example Tempo query:
```
{name="consensus.validation.send"} | xrpl.validation.ledger_hash = "A1B2C3..."
```
Phase 7's `ValidationTracker` builds metric-level aggregation (1h/24h agreement %) on top of this data.
**Key modified files (not yet modified)**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
- `src/xrpld/overlay/detail/PeerImp.cpp`
**Exit Criteria**:
- [x] `consensus.validation.send` spans carry `ledger_hash` and `full_validation`
- [ ] `peer.validation.receive` spans carry `xrpl.peer.validation.ledger_hash` and `xrpl.peer.validation.full`
- [ ] `consensus.accept` spans carry `validation_quorum` and `proposers_validated`
- [x] Ledger hash attributes match between send and receive for the same ledger
- [ ] No impact on consensus performance
---
## Task 4.9: Consensus Span Attribute Gap Fill
**Status**: COMPLETE
**Objective**: Add workflow-critical attributes to consensus spans that enable operators to understand consensus outcomes, identify bow-out proposals, and correlate validations to specific ledgers.
**Attributes added**:
| Span | Attribute | Type | Source |
| --------------------------- | ----------------- | ------ | ------------------------------------- |
| `consensus.proposal.send` | `is_bow_out` | bool | `proposal.isBowOut()` |
| `consensus.accept` | `consensus_state` | string | `result.state` (yes/moved_on/expired) |
| `consensus.accept` | `disputes_count` | int64 | `result.disputes.size()` |
| `consensus.validation.send` | `ledger_hash` | string | `ledger.ledger->header().hash` |
**New attr keys**: `ConsensusSpanNames.h` (`isBowOut`, `ledgerHash`).
**Modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/consensus/ConsensusSpanNames.h`
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
---
## Summary

**Parallel work**: Tasks 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4 can run in parallel after 4.1 is complete. Task 4.5 depends on all three. Task 4.6 depends on 4.2 and Phase 3. Task 4.8 depends on 4.4 (validation spans must exist).
### Implemented Spans
| Span Name | Method | Key Attributes |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `consensus.proposal.send` | `Adaptor::propose` | `xrpl.consensus.round`, `is_bow_out` |
| `consensus.ledger_close` | `Adaptor::onClose` | `xrpl.ledger.seq`, `xrpl.consensus.mode` |
| `consensus.accept` | `Adaptor::onAccept` | `proposers`, `round_time_ms`, `quorum`, `disputes_count`, `consensus_state` |
| `consensus.accept.apply` | `Adaptor::doAccept` | `close_time`, `close_time_correct`, `close_resolution_ms`, `consensus_state`, `proposing`, `round_time_ms`, `xrpl.ledger.seq`, `parent_close_time`, `close_time_self`, `close_time_vote_bins`, `resolution_direction` |
| `consensus.validation.send` | `Adaptor::onAccept` (via validate) | `proposing`, `ledger_hash`, `ledger_seq`, `full_validation`, `validation_sign_time` |
#### Close Time Attributes (consensus.accept.apply)
The `consensus.accept.apply` span captures ledger close time agreement details
driven by `avCT_CONSENSUS_PCT` (75% validator agreement threshold):
- **`close_time`** — Agreed-upon ledger close time (epoch seconds). When validators disagree (`consensusCloseTime == epoch`), this is synthetically set to `prevCloseTime + 1s`.
- **`close_time_correct`** — `true` if validators reached agreement, `false` if they "agreed to disagree" (close time forced to prev+1s).
- **`close_resolution_ms`** — Rounding granularity for close time (starts at 30s, decreases as ledger interval stabilizes).
- **`consensus_state`** — `"finished"` (normal) or `"moved_on"` (consensus failed, adopted best available).
- **`proposing`** — Whether this node was proposing.
- **`round_time_ms`** — Total consensus round duration.
- **`parent_close_time`** — Previous ledger's close time (epoch seconds). Enables computing close-time deltas across consecutive rounds without correlating separate spans.
- **`close_time_self`** — This node's own proposed close time before consensus voting.
- **`close_time_vote_bins`** — Number of distinct close-time vote bins from peer proposals. Higher values indicate less agreement among validators.
- **`resolution_direction`** — Whether close-time resolution `"increased"` (coarser), `"decreased"` (finer), or stayed `"unchanged"` relative to the previous ledger.
**Exit Criteria** (from [06-implementation-phases.md §6.11.4](./06-implementation-phases.md)):
- [x] Complete consensus round traces
- [x] Phase transitions visible (open, establish, close, accept)
- [x] Proposals and validations traced — send and receive; relay deferred to Phase 4b
- [x] Close time agreement tracked (per `avCT_CONSENSUS_PCT`)
- [x] No impact on consensus timing
- [x] Transaction-consensus correlation (Task 4.6) — `tx.included` events in doAccept
- [ ] Validation span enrichment (Task 4.8) — not implemented

# Phase 4a: Establish-Phase Gap Fill & Cross-Node Correlation
> **Goal**: Fill tracing gaps in the consensus establish phase (disputes, convergence,
> threshold escalation, mode changes) and establish cross-node correlation using a
> deterministic shared trace ID derived from `previousLedger.id()`.
>
> **Approach**: Direct instrumentation in `Consensus.h` and `RCLConsensus.cpp`.
> All spans use `SpanGuard` factory methods (`span()`, `hashSpan()`, `linkedSpan()`)
> with `TraceCategory::Consensus` gating. Long-lived spans (round, establish) are
> stored as `std::optional<SpanGuard>` class members. Short-lived scoped spans
> (update_positions, check) are local variables. No macros are used — all tracing
> is via direct `SpanGuard` API calls. `SpanGuard` compiles to no-ops when
> telemetry is disabled.
>
> **Branch**: `pratik/otel-phase4-consensus-tracing`
## Design: Switchable Correlation Strategy
Two strategies for cross-node trace correlation, switchable via config:
### Strategy A — Deterministic Trace ID (Default)
Derive `trace_id = SHA256(previousLedger.id())[0:16]` so all nodes in the same
consensus round share the same trace_id without P2P context propagation.
- **Pros**: All nodes appear in the same trace in Tempo/Jaeger automatically.
No collector-side post-processing needed.
- **Cons**: Overrides OTel's random trace_id generation; requires custom
`IdGenerator` or manual span context construction.
### Strategy B — Attribute-Based Correlation
Use normal random trace_id but attach `xrpl.consensus.ledger_id` as an attribute
on every consensus span. Correlation happens at query time via Tempo/Grafana
`by attribute` queries.
- **Pros**: Standard OTel trace_id semantics; no SDK customization.
- **Cons**: Cross-node correlation requires query-time joins, not automatic.
### Config
```ini
[telemetry]
# "deterministic" (default) or "attribute"
consensus_trace_strategy=deterministic
```
The C++ API to query this at runtime is `Telemetry::getConsensusTraceStrategy()`,
which returns a `std::string const&` (`"deterministic"` or `"attribute"`).
### Implementation
In `RCLConsensus::Adaptor::startRound()`:
- If `deterministic`:
1. Compute `trace_id_bytes = SHA256(prevLedgerID)[0:16]`
2. Construct `opentelemetry::trace::TraceId(trace_id_bytes)`
3. Create a synthetic `SpanContext` with this trace_id and a random span_id:
```cpp
auto traceId = opentelemetry::trace::TraceId(trace_id_bytes);
auto spanId = opentelemetry::trace::SpanId(random_8_bytes);
auto syntheticCtx = opentelemetry::trace::SpanContext(
traceId, spanId, opentelemetry::trace::TraceFlags(1), false);
```
4. Wrap in `opentelemetry::context::Context` via
`opentelemetry::trace::SetSpan(context, syntheticSpan)`
5. Call `startSpan("consensus.round", parentContext)` so the new span
inherits the deterministic trace_id.
- If `attribute`: start a normal `consensus.round` span, set
`xrpl.consensus.ledger_id = previousLedger.id()` as attribute.
Both strategies always set `xrpl.consensus.round_id` (round number) and
`xrpl.consensus.ledger_id` (previous ledger hash) as attributes.
---
## Design: Span Hierarchy
```
consensus.round (root — created in RCLConsensus::startRound, closed at accept)
│ link → previous round's SpanContext (follows-from)
├── consensus.establish (phaseEstablish → acceptance, in Consensus.h)
│ ├── consensus.update_positions (each updateOurPositions call)
│ │ └── consensus.dispute.resolve (per-tx dispute resolution event)
│ ├── consensus.check (each haveConsensus call)
│ └── consensus.mode_change (short-lived span in adaptor on mode transition)
├── consensus.accept (existing onAccept span — reparented under round)
└── consensus.validation.send (existing — reparented, follows-from link to round)
```
### Span Links (follows-from relationships)
| Link Source | Link Target | Rationale |
| ----------------------------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `consensus.round` (N+1) | `consensus.round` (N) | Causal chain: round N+1 exists because round N accepted |
| `consensus.validation.send` | `consensus.round` | Validation follows from the round that produced it; may outlive the round span |
| _(Phase 4b)_ Received proposal processing | Sender's `consensus.round` | Cross-node causal link via P2P context propagation |
---
## Task 4a.0: Prerequisites — Extend SpanGuard and Telemetry APIs ✅
**Objective**: Add missing API surface needed by later tasks.
**Status**: Done, but implemented differently than originally planned. The macro-based
approach (`XRPL_TRACE_CONSENSUS`, `XRPL_TRACE_ADD_EVENT`, `XRPL_TRACE_SET_ATTR`) was
**not used**. Instead, all consensus tracing uses `SpanGuard` factory methods and
direct method calls, which is cleaner and avoids macro control-flow issues.
**What was done**:
1. **`SpanGuard::addEvent()` with attributes** — implemented as planned:
```cpp
using EventAttribute = std::pair<std::string_view, std::string_view>;
void addEvent(std::string_view name,
std::initializer_list<EventAttribute> attrs);
```
Callers pass plain `string_view` pairs; the implementation converts internally.
```cpp
// Actual usage in Consensus.h::updateOurPositions():
span.addEvent(
"dispute.resolve",
{{consensus::span::attr::txId, to_string(txId)},
{consensus::span::attr::disputeOurVote, dispute.getOurVote() ? "yes" : "no"}});
```
2. **Span link support** — implemented via `SpanGuard::linkedSpan()` static factory
instead of a `Telemetry::startSpan()` overload:
```cpp
static SpanGuard linkedSpan(
std::string_view name, SpanContext const& linkTarget);
```
3. **No macros added** — `TracingInstrumentation.h` was not created. The `XRPL_TRACE_CONSENSUS`,
`XRPL_TRACE_ADD_EVENT`, and `XRPL_TRACE_SET_ATTR` macros from the original plan were
not implemented. All consensus tracing uses direct `SpanGuard` API:
- `SpanGuard::span()` — create scoped spans
- `SpanGuard::hashSpan()` — create spans with deterministic trace IDs
- `SpanGuard::linkedSpan()` — create spans with follows-from links
- `span.setAttribute()` — set attributes directly
- `span.addEvent()` — add events directly
**Key modified files**:
- `include/xrpl/telemetry/SpanGuard.h` — `addEvent()` overload, `EventAttribute` type alias
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/SpanGuard.cpp` — `addEvent()` implementation
---
## Task 4a.1: Adaptor `getTelemetry()` Method — NOT DONE (Not Needed)
**Objective**: Give `Consensus.h` access to the telemetry subsystem without
coupling the generic template to OTel headers.
**Status**: Not implemented as specified. The `getTelemetry()` adaptor method was
not needed because `SpanGuard::span()` is a static factory method that internally
checks telemetry state via the global `Telemetry` singleton. `Consensus.h` creates
spans by calling `SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Consensus, ...)` directly, without
needing adaptor access. Only `RCLConsensus::Adaptor` uses `app_.getTelemetry()`
directly (for `getConsensusTraceStrategy()` in `startRoundTracing()`).
**Key insight**: The `XRPL_TRACE_*` macro approach would have required
`adaptor_.getTelemetry()`. Since macros were not used, this task became unnecessary.
---
## Task 4a.2: Switchable Round Span with Deterministic Trace ID ✅
**Objective**: Create a `consensus.round` root span in `startRound()` that uses
the switchable correlation strategy. Store span context as a member for child
spans in `Consensus.h`.
**Status**: Done. Implemented in `Adaptor::startRoundTracing()`.
**What was done**:
- `RCLConsensus::Adaptor::startRoundTracing()` helper:
- Reads `consensus_trace_strategy` via `app_.getTelemetry().getConsensusTraceStrategy()`
- **Deterministic**: uses `SpanGuard::hashSpan()` with `prevLgr.id()` data
- **Attribute**: uses `SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Consensus, seg::consensus, "round")`
- Sets attributes: `xrpl.consensus.ledger_id`, `xrpl.ledger.seq`, `xrpl.consensus.mode`, `trace_strategy`, `xrpl.consensus.round_id`
- Captures `roundSpanContext_` snapshot for cross-thread span linking
- Saves `prevRoundContext_` from previous round for follows-from links
- **`SpanGuard::hashSpan()` factory**: encapsulates deterministic trace ID logic:
```cpp
static SpanGuard hashSpan(
TraceCategory cat, std::string_view name,
std::uint8_t const* hashData, std::size_t hashSize);
```
Derives `trace_id = hashData[0:16]` so all nodes in the same round share
the same trace_id. Compiles to no-op when telemetry is disabled.
- `consensus_trace_strategy` config parsed in `TelemetryConfig.cpp`,
stored in `Telemetry::Setup`, accessible via `Telemetry::getConsensusTraceStrategy()`
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp` — `startRoundTracing()` implementation
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/ConsensusSpanNames.h` — **(new)** compile-time span name and attribute key constants
- `include/xrpl/telemetry/Telemetry.h` — `consensusTraceStrategy` in Setup, `getConsensusTraceStrategy()`
- `src/libxrpl/telemetry/TelemetryConfig.cpp` — parse new config option
---
## Task 4a.3: Span Members in `Consensus.h` ✅
**Objective**: Add span storage to the `Consensus` class so that spans created
in `startRound()` (adaptor) are accessible from `phaseEstablish()`,
`updateOurPositions()`, and `haveConsensus()` (template methods).
**Status**: Done with documented plan deviation.
**What was done**:
- `establishSpan_` added to `Consensus` private members (as planned):
```cpp
std::optional<xrpl::telemetry::SpanGuard> establishSpan_;
```
- **Plan deviation**: `roundSpan_`, `prevRoundContext_`, and `roundSpanContext_`
are stored in `RCLConsensus::Adaptor` (not `Consensus.h`) because the adaptor
has access to telemetry config for the deterministic trace ID strategy.
- **No `#ifdef XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY` guards**: Members use `std::optional<SpanGuard>`
and `SpanContext` which have no-op implementations when telemetry is disabled,
so `#ifdef` guards are unnecessary. The members are always present in the class
layout but incur negligible overhead.
- Includes added unconditionally to `Consensus.h`:
```cpp
#include <xrpl/telemetry/SpanGuard.h>
#include <xrpld/app/consensus/ConsensusSpanNames.h>
```
No `TracingInstrumentation.h` include (file doesn't exist; macros not used).
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/consensus/Consensus.h`
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.h` (round span and context members)
---
## Task 4a.4: Instrument `phaseEstablish()` ✅
**Objective**: Create `consensus.establish` span wrapping the establish phase,
with attributes for convergence progress.
**Status**: Done. Implemented via three private helpers in `Consensus.h`.
**What was done**:
- `startEstablishTracing()` — creates `consensus.establish` span via
`SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Consensus, seg::consensus, "establish")`.
Called once at start of establish phase. No `#ifdef` guards needed —
`SpanGuard::span()` returns a no-op guard when telemetry is disabled.
- `updateEstablishTracing()` — sets attributes on each `phaseEstablish()` call:
- `converge_percent` — `convergePercent_`
- `establish_count` — `establishCounter_`
- `proposers` — `currPeerPositions_.size()`
- `endEstablishTracing()` — calls `establishSpan_.reset()` on phase exit.
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/consensus/Consensus.h` — `phaseEstablish()` method + 3 helper methods
---
## Task 4a.5: Instrument `updateOurPositions()` ✅
**Objective**: Trace each position update cycle including dispute resolution
details.
**Status**: DONE. Span, dispute events with yays/nays, and disputes_count attribute are all implemented.
**What was done**:
- Creates `consensus.update_positions` scoped span via
`SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Consensus, seg::consensus, "update_positions")`:
```cpp
auto span = SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Consensus, seg::consensus, "update_positions");
```
- Attributes set:
- `converge_percent` — current convergence
- `proposers` — `currPeerPositions_.size()`
- `have_close_time_consensus` — close time consensus state
- `close_time_threshold` — `avCT_CONSENSUS_PCT`
- `disputes_count` — number of active disputes
- Dispute events recorded via direct `span.addEvent()` call with yays/nays:
```cpp
span.addEvent(
"dispute.resolve",
{{consensus::span::attr::txId, to_string(txId)},
{consensus::span::attr::disputeOurVote, dispute.getOurVote() ? "yes" : "no"},
{consensus::span::attr::disputeYays, std::to_string(dispute.getYays())},
{consensus::span::attr::disputeNays, std::to_string(dispute.getNays())}});
```
**Not implemented**:
- `proposers_agreed` / `proposers_total` attributes — not set
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/consensus/Consensus.h` — `updateOurPositions()` method
- `src/xrpld/consensus/DisputedTx.h` — added `getYays()` / `getNays()` (currently unused)
---
## Task 4a.6: Instrument `haveConsensus()` (Threshold & Convergence) ✅
**Objective**: Trace consensus checking including threshold escalation.
**Status**: DONE. The `consensus.check` span is created with all planned attributes
including the avalanche threshold.
**What was done**:
- Creates `consensus.check` scoped span via
`SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Consensus, seg::consensus, "check")`:
```cpp
auto span = SpanGuard::span(TraceCategory::Consensus, seg::consensus, "check");
```
- Attributes set:
- `agree_count` — peers that agree with our position
- `disagree_count` — peers that disagree
- `converge_percent` — convergence percentage
- `have_close_time_consensus` — close time consensus state
- `threshold_percent` — set to `avCT_CONSENSUS_PCT` (75%)
- `consensus_result` — "yes", "no", or "moved_on"
- `avalanche_threshold` — the escalated weight from `getNeededWeight()` on the `consensus.update_positions` span
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/consensus/Consensus.h` — `haveConsensus()` method
---
## Task 4a.7: Instrument Mode Changes ✅
**Objective**: Trace consensus mode transitions (proposing ↔ observing,
wrongLedger, switchedLedger).
**Status**: Done.
**What was done**:
- In `RCLConsensus::Adaptor::onModeChange()`, creates a scoped span via direct
`SpanGuard::span()` call:
```cpp
auto span = telemetry::SpanGuard::span(
telemetry::TraceCategory::Consensus, telemetry::seg::consensus, "mode_change");
span.setAttribute(consensus::span::attr::modeOld, to_string(before).c_str()); // "mode_old"
span.setAttribute(consensus::span::attr::modeNew, to_string(after).c_str()); // "mode_new"
```
- `MonitoredMode::set()` in `Consensus.h` calls `adaptor_.onModeChange(before, after)`.
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp` — `onModeChange()`
---
## Task 4a.8: Reparent Existing Spans Under Round ✅
**Objective**: Make existing consensus spans (`consensus.accept`,
`consensus.accept.apply`, `consensus.validation.send`) children of the
`consensus.round` root span instead of being standalone.
**Status**: DONE. All three spans are now parented under the round span.
**What was done**:
- `consensus.validation.send` uses `SpanGuard::linkedSpan()` to create a
follows-from link to `roundSpanContext_`. This is thread-safe because
`roundSpanContext_` is a lightweight `SpanContext` snapshot captured on the
consensus thread and read on the jtACCEPT worker thread.
- `consensus.accept` and `consensus.accept.apply` now use
`SpanGuard::childSpan(name, roundSpanContext_)` instead of `SpanGuard::span()`
to explicitly parent under the round span context. This solves the cross-thread
parenting problem:
- `doAccept()` runs on the jtACCEPT worker thread (not the consensus thread)
- `childSpan()` explicitly passes the parent context, bypassing OTel's
thread-local context propagation
**Key modified files**:
- `src/xrpld/app/consensus/RCLConsensus.cpp`
---
## Task 4a.9: Build Verification and Testing ✅
**Objective**: Verify all Phase 4a changes compile cleanly with telemetry ON
and OFF, and don't affect consensus timing.
**What to do**:
1. Build with `telemetry=ON` — verify no compilation errors
2. Build with `telemetry=OFF` — verify `SpanGuard` compiles to no-ops
3. Run existing consensus unit tests
4. Verify `SpanGuard` / `SpanContext` members have negligible overhead when disabled
5. Run `pccl` pre-commit checks
**Verification Checklist**:
- [x] Build succeeds with telemetry ON
- [x] Build succeeds with telemetry OFF
- [x] Existing consensus tests pass
- [x] `SpanGuard` no-op path verified (no `#ifdef` needed — disabled at runtime)
- [x] No new virtual calls in hot consensus paths
- [x] `pccl` passes

### New Spans (Phase 4a)
| Span Name | Location | Key Attributes (actually set) |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `consensus.round` | `RCLConsensus.cpp` | `xrpl.consensus.round_id`, `xrpl.consensus.ledger_id`, `xrpl.ledger.seq`, `xrpl.consensus.mode`, `trace_strategy` |
| `consensus.establish` | `Consensus.h` | `converge_percent`, `establish_count`, `proposers` |

| `tx.included` | `consensus.accept.apply` | `xrpl.tx.id` |
### New Attributes (Phase 4a)
```cpp
// Round-level (on consensus.round) — ALL IMPLEMENTED
"xrpl.consensus.round_id" = int64 // Consensus round number
"xrpl.consensus.ledger_id" = string // previousLedger.id() hash
"trace_strategy" = string // "deterministic" or "attribute"
// Establish-level — IMPLEMENTED
"converge_percent" = int64 // Convergence % (0-100+)
"establish_count" = int64 // Number of establish iterations
"agree_count" = int64 // Peers that agree (haveConsensus)
"disagree_count" = int64 // Peers that disagree
"threshold_percent" = int64 // Current threshold (avCT_CONSENSUS_PCT = 75%)
"consensus_result" = string // "yes", "no", "moved_on"
"have_close_time_consensus" = bool // Close time consensus reached
"close_time_threshold" = int64 // Close time voting threshold
// Establish-level — IMPLEMENTED
"disputes_count" = int64 // Active disputes (on update_positions)
"avalanche_threshold" = int64 // Escalated weight (on update_positions)
// Establish-level — NOT IMPLEMENTED
// "proposers_agreed" = int64 // Peers agreeing with us — not set
// "proposers_total" = int64 // Total peer positions — not set (not defined)
// Mode change — ALL IMPLEMENTED
"mode_old" = string // Previous mode
"mode_new" = string // New mode
```
### Implementation Notes
- **No macros**: The planned `XRPL_TRACE_CONSENSUS`, `XRPL_TRACE_ADD_EVENT`, and
`XRPL_TRACE_SET_ATTR` macros were not implemented. All consensus tracing uses
`SpanGuard` factory methods (`span()`, `hashSpan()`, `linkedSpan()`) and direct
method calls (`setAttribute()`, `addEvent()`). This avoids macro control-flow
issues and is cleaner than the planned approach.
- **Separation of concerns**: All non-trivial telemetry code extracted to private
helpers (`startRoundTracing`, `createValidationSpan`, `startEstablishTracing`,
`updateEstablishTracing`, `endEstablishTracing`). Business logic methods contain
single-line calls to these helpers.
- **Thread safety**: `createValidationSpan()` runs on the jtACCEPT worker thread.
Instead of accessing `roundSpan_` across threads, a `roundSpanContext_` snapshot
(lightweight `SpanContext` value type) is captured on the consensus thread in
`startRoundTracing()` and read by `createValidationSpan()`. The job queue
provides the happens-before guarantee.
- **No `#ifdef` guards**: Span members use `std::optional<SpanGuard>` and `SpanContext`
which have no-op implementations when telemetry is disabled. No `#ifdef XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY`
guards needed around members or includes.
- **No `getTelemetry()` adaptor method**: `SpanGuard::span()` is a static factory that
internally checks telemetry state, so `Consensus.h` doesn't need adaptor access
for span creation. Only `RCLConsensus::Adaptor` accesses `app_.getTelemetry()` directly.
- **Config validation**: `consensus_trace_strategy` is validated to be either
`"deterministic"` or `"attribute"`, falling back to `"deterministic"` for
unrecognised values.
- **Plan deviation**: `roundSpan_` is stored in `RCLConsensus::Adaptor` (not
`Consensus.h`) because the adaptor has access to telemetry config and can
implement the deterministic trace ID strategy. `establishSpan_` is correctly
in `Consensus.h` as planned.

# Phase 4b: Cross-Node Propagation (Future — Documentation Only)
> **Goal**: Wire `TraceContextPropagator` for P2P messages so that proposals
> and validations carry trace context between nodes. This enables true
> distributed tracing where a proposal sent by Node A creates a child span
> on Node B.
>
> **Status**: NOT IMPLEMENTED. The protobuf fields and propagator class exist
> but are not wired. This section documents the design for future work.
## Architecture
```
Node A (proposing) Node B (receiving)
───────────────── ──────────────────
consensus.round consensus.round
├── propose() ├── peerProposal()
│ └── TraceContextPropagator │ └── TraceContextPropagator
│ ::injectToProtobuf( │ ::extractFromProtobuf(
│ TMProposeSet.trace_context) │ TMProposeSet.trace_context)
│ │ └── span link → Node A's context
└── validate() └── onValidation()
└── inject into TMValidation └── extract from TMValidation
```
## Wiring Points
| Message | Inject Location | Extract Location | Protobuf Field |
| --------------- | ---------------------------------- | ----------------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `TMProposeSet` | `Adaptor::propose()` | `PeerImp::onMessage(TMProposeSet)` | field 1001: `TraceContext` |
| `TMValidation` | `Adaptor::validate()` | `PeerImp::onMessage(TMValidation)` | field 1001: `TraceContext` |
| `TMTransaction` | `NetworkOPs::processTransaction()` | `PeerImp::onMessage(TMTransaction)` | field 1001: `TraceContext` |
## Span Link Semantics
Received messages use **span links** (follows-from), NOT parent-child:
- The receiver's processing span links to the sender's context
- This preserves each node's independent trace tree
- Cross-node correlation visible via linked traces in Tempo/Jaeger
## Interaction with Deterministic Trace ID (Strategy A)
When using deterministic trace_id (Phase 4a default), cross-node spans already
share the same trace_id. P2P propagation adds **span-level** linking:
- Without propagation: spans from different nodes appear in the same trace
(same trace_id) but without parent-child or follows-from relationships.
- With propagation: spans have explicit links showing which proposal/validation
from Node A caused processing on Node B.
## Prerequisites
- Phase 4a (this task list) — establish phase tracing must be in place
- `TraceContextPropagator` free functions (already exist in
`include/xrpl/telemetry/TraceContextPropagator.h`)
- Protobuf `TraceContext` message (already exists, field 1001)

# Phase 5: Documentation & Deployment Task List

>
> **Scope**: Grafana dashboard definitions, OTel Collector spanmetrics connector, Prometheus integration, alert rules, operator documentation, and production-ready Docker Compose stack.
>
> **Branch**: `pratik/otel-phase5-docs-deployment` (from `pratik/otel-phase4-consensus-tracing`)
> **Note on attribute names**: the `xrpl.<domain>.<field>` keys shown below

> older dotted form for readability — it mirrors how the fully qualified
> attribute reads in a Tempo trace view. The implemented keys follow the
> convention in [CONTRIBUTING.md](../CONTRIBUTING.md#telemetry-span-attribute-naming)
> (underscore form, e.g. `command`, `rpc_status`); the `*SpanNames.h` constants
> are the single source of truth, and the real collector dimensions must use

# OpenTelemetry Distributed Tracing for xrpld
---
## Slide 1: Introduction
> **CNCF** = Cloud Native Computing Foundation
### What is OpenTelemetry?
OpenTelemetry is an open-source, CNCF-backed observability framework for distributed tracing, metrics, and logs.
### Why OpenTelemetry for xrpld?
- **End-to-End Transaction Visibility**: Track transactions from submission → consensus → ledger inclusion
- **Cross-Node Correlation**: Follow requests across multiple independent nodes using a unique `trace_id`
- **Consensus Round Analysis**: Understand timing and behavior across validators
- **Incident Debugging**: Correlate events across distributed nodes during issues
```mermaid
flowchart LR
A["Node A<br/>tx.receive<br/>trace_id: abc123"] --> B["Node B<br/>tx.relay<br/>trace_id: abc123"] --> C["Node C<br/>tx.validate<br/>trace_id: abc123"] --> D["Node D<br/>ledger.apply<br/>trace_id: abc123"]
style A fill:#1565c0,stroke:#0d47a1,color:#fff
style B fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#fff
style C fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#fff
style D fill:#e65100,stroke:#bf360c,color:#fff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Node A (blue, leftmost)**: The originating node that first receives the transaction and assigns a new `trace_id: abc123`; this ID becomes the correlation key for the entire distributed trace.
- **Node B and Node C (green, middle)**: Relay and validation nodes — each creates its own span but carries the same `trace_id`, so their work is linked to the original submission without any central coordinator.
- **Node D (orange, rightmost)**: The final node that applies the transaction to the ledger; the trace now spans the full lifecycle from submission to ledger inclusion.
- **Left-to-right flow**: The horizontal progression shows the real-world message path — a transaction hops from node to node, and the shared `trace_id` stitches all hops into a single queryable trace.
> **Trace ID: abc123** — All nodes share the same trace, enabling cross-node correlation.

## Slide 2: OpenTelemetry vs Open Source Alternatives
> **CNCF** = Cloud Native Computing Foundation
| Feature | OpenTelemetry | Jaeger | Zipkin | SkyWalking | Pinpoint | Prometheus |
| ------------------- | ---------------- | ---------------- | ------------------ | ---------- | ---------- | ---------- |
| **Tracing** | YES | YES | YES | YES | YES | NO |
| **Metrics** | YES | NO | NO | YES | YES | YES |
| **Logs** | YES | NO | NO | YES | NO | NO |
| **C++ SDK** | YES Official | YES (Deprecated) | YES (Unmaintained) | NO | NO | YES |
| **Vendor Neutral** | YES Primary goal | NO | NO | NO | NO | NO |

| **Backend** | Any (exporters) | Self | Self | Self | Self | Self |
| **CNCF Status** | Incubating | Graduated | NO | Incubating | NO | Graduated |
> **Why OpenTelemetry?** It's the only actively maintained, full-featured C++ option with vendor neutrality — allowing export to Tempo, Prometheus, Grafana, or any commercial backend without changing instrumentation.
---
## Slide 3: Adoption Scope — Traces Only (Current Plan)
OpenTelemetry supports three signal types: **Traces**, **Metrics**, and **Logs**. xrpld already captures metrics (StatsD via Beast Insight) and logs (Journal/PerfLog). The question is: how much of OTel do we adopt?
> **Scenario A**: Add distributed tracing. Keep StatsD for metrics and Journal for logs.
```mermaid

style Journal fill:#e65100,stroke:#bf360c,color:#fff
style Collector fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#fff
```
| Aspect | Details |
| ------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **What changes for operators** | Deploy OTel Collector + trace backend. Existing StatsD and log pipelines stay as-is. |
| **Codebase impact** | New `Telemetry` module (~1500 LOC). Beast Insight and Journal untouched. |
| **New capabilities** | Cross-node trace correlation, span-based debugging, request lifecycle visibility. |
| **What we still can't do** | Correlate metrics with specific traces natively. StatsD metrics remain fire-and-forget with no trace exemplars. |
| **Maintenance burden** | Three separate observability systems to maintain (OTel + StatsD + Journal). |
| **Risk** | Lowest — additive change, no existing systems disturbed. |
---
## Slide 4: Future Adoption — Metrics & Logs via OTel
### Scenario B: + OTel Metrics (Replace StatsD)
> Migrate StatsD to OTel Metrics API, exposing Prometheus-compatible metrics. Remove Beast Insight.
```mermaid
flowchart LR
subgraph xrpld["xrpld Process"]
direction TB
OTel["OTel SDK<br/>(Traces + Metrics)"]
Journal["Journal + PerfLog<br/>(Logging)"]
end
OTel -->|"OTLP"| Collector["OTel Collector"]

style Journal fill:#e65100,stroke:#bf360c,color:#fff
style Collector fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#fff
```
- **Better metrics?** Yes — Prometheus gives native histograms (p50/p95/p99), multi-dimensional labels, and exemplars linking metric spikes to traces.
- **Codebase**: Remove `Beast::Insight` + `StatsDCollector` (~2000 LOC). Single SDK for traces and metrics.
- **Operator effort**: Rewrite dashboards from StatsD/Graphite queries to PromQL. Run both in parallel during transition.
- **Risk**: Medium — operators must migrate monitoring infrastructure.
### Scenario C: + OTel Logs (Full Stack)
> Also replace Journal logging with OTel Logs API. Single SDK for everything.
```mermaid
flowchart LR
subgraph xrpld["xrpld Process"]
OTel["OTel SDK<br/>(Traces + Metrics + Logs)"]
end
OTel -->|"OTLP"| Collector["OTel Collector"]
Collector --> Tempo["Tempo<br/>(Traces)"]
Collector --> Prom["Prometheus<br/>(Metrics)"]
Collector --> Loki["Loki / Elastic<br/>(Logs)"]

style OTel fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#fff
style Collector fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#fff
```
- **Structured logging**: OTel Logs API outputs structured records with `trace_id`, `span_id`, severity, and attributes by design.
- **Full correlation**: Every log line carries `trace_id`. Click trace → see logs. Click metric spike → see trace → see logs.
- **Codebase**: Remove Beast Insight (~2000 LOC) + simplify Journal/PerfLog (~3000 LOC). One dependency instead of three.
- **Risk**: Highest — `beast::Journal` is deeply embedded in every component. Large refactor. OTel C++ Logs API is newer (stable since v1.11, less battle-tested).
### Recommendation

### Current Observability Stack
| Aspect | PerfLog (JSON) | StatsD (Metrics) | OpenTelemetry (NEW) |
| --------------------- | --------------------- | --------------------- | --------------------------- |
| **Type** | Logging | Metrics | Distributed Tracing |
| **Scope** | Single node | Single node | **Cross-node** |
| **Data** | JSON log entries | Counters, gauges | Spans with context |

| -------------------------------- | ------- | ------ | ------------- |
| "How many TXs per second?" | ❌ | ✅ | ❌ |
| "Why was this specific TX slow?" | ⚠️ | ❌ | ✅ |
| "Which node delayed consensus?" | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ |
| "Show TX journey across 5 nodes" | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ |
> **Key Insight**: In the **traces-only** approach (Phase 1), OpenTelemetry **complements** existing systems. In future phases, OTel metrics and logs could **replace** StatsD and Journal respectively — see Slides 3-4 for the full adoption roadmap.

style Collector fill:#e65100,stroke:#bf360c,color:#fff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Core Services (blue, top)**: RPC Server, Overlay, and Consensus are the three primary components that generate trace data — they represent the entry points for client requests, peer messages, and consensus rounds respectively.
- **Telemetry Module (green, middle)**: The OpenTelemetry SDK sits below the core services and receives span data from all three; it acts as a single collection point within the xrpld process.
- **OTel Collector (orange, center)**: An external process that receives spans over OTLP/gRPC from the Telemetry Module; it decouples xrpld from backend choices and handles batching, sampling, and routing.
- **Backends (bottom row)**: Tempo and Elastic APM are interchangeable — the Collector fans out to any combination, so operators can switch backends without modifying xrpld code.
- **Top-to-bottom flow**: Data flows from instrumented code down through the SDK, out over the network to the Collector, and finally into storage/visualization backends.
### Context Propagation

## Slide 8: Performance Overhead
> **OTLP** = OpenTelemetry Protocol
### Estimated System Impact
| Metric | Overhead | Notes |
| ----------------- | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **CPU** | 1-3% | Span creation and attribute setting |
| **Memory** | ~10 MB | SDK statics + batch buffer + worker thread stack |
| **Network** | 10-50 KB/s | Compressed OTLP export to collector |
| **Latency (p99)** | <2% | With proper sampling configuration |
#### How We Arrived at These Numbers
**Assumptions (XRPL mainnet baseline)**:
| Parameter | Value | Source |
| ------------------------- | ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Transaction throughput | ~25 TPS (peaks to ~50) | Mainnet average |
| Default peers per node | 21 | `peerfinder/detail/Tuning.h` (`defaultMaxPeers`) |
| Consensus round frequency | ~1 round / 3-4 seconds | `ConsensusParms.h` (`ledgerMIN_CONSENSUS=1950ms`) |
| Proposers per round | ~20-35 | Mainnet UNL size |
| P2P message rate | ~160 msgs/sec | See message breakdown below |
| Avg TX processing time | ~200 μs | Profiled baseline |
| Single span creation cost | 500-1000 ns | OTel C++ SDK benchmarks (see [3.5.4](./03-implementation-strategy.md#354-performance-data-sources)) |
**P2P message breakdown** (per node, mainnet):
| Message Type | Rate | Derivation |
| ------------- | ------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| TMTransaction | ~100/sec | ~25 TPS × ~4 relay hops per TX, deduplicated by HashRouter |
| TMValidation | ~50/sec | ~35 validators × ~1 validation/3s round ~12/sec, plus relay fan-out |
| TMProposeSet | ~10/sec | ~35 proposers / 3s round ~12/round, clustered in establish phase |
| **Total** | **~160/sec** | **Only traced message types counted** |
**CPU (1-3%) — Calculation**:
Per-transaction tracing cost breakdown:
| Operation | Cost | Notes |
| ----------------------------------------------- | ----------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| `tx.receive` span (create + end + 4 attributes) | ~1400 ns | ~1000ns create + ~200ns end + 4×50ns attrs |
| `tx.validate` span | ~1200 ns | ~1000ns create + ~200ns for 2 attributes |
| `tx.relay` span | ~1200 ns | ~1000ns create + ~200ns for 2 attributes |
| Context injection into P2P message | ~200 ns | Serialize trace_id + span_id into protobuf |
| **Total per TX** | **~4.0 μs** | |
> **CPU overhead**: 4.0 μs / 200 μs baseline = **~2.0% per transaction**. Under high load with consensus + RPC spans overlapping, reaches ~3%. Consensus itself adds only ~36 μs per 3-second round (~0.001%), so the TX path dominates. On production server hardware (3+ GHz Xeon), span creation drops to ~500-600 ns, bringing per-TX cost to ~2.6 μs (~1.3%). See [Section 3.5.4](./03-implementation-strategy.md#354-performance-data-sources) for benchmark sources.
**Memory (~10 MB) — Calculation**:
| Component | Size | Notes |
| --------------------------------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------------- |
| TracerProvider + Exporter (gRPC channel init) | ~320 KB | Allocated once at startup |
| BatchSpanProcessor (circular buffer) | ~16 KB | 2049 × 8-byte AtomicUniquePtr entries |
| BatchSpanProcessor (worker thread stack) | ~8 MB | Default Linux thread stack size |
| Active spans (in-flight, max ~1000) | ~500-800 KB | ~500-800 bytes/span × 1000 concurrent |
| Export queue (batch buffer, max 2048 spans) | ~1 MB | ~500 bytes/span × 2048 queue depth |
| Thread-local context storage (~100 threads) | ~6.4 KB | ~64 bytes/thread |
| **Total** | **~10 MB ceiling** | |
> Memory plateaus once the export queue fills — the `max_queue_size=2048` config bounds growth.
> The worker thread stack (~8 MB) dominates the static footprint but is virtual memory; actual RSS
> depends on stack usage (typically much less). Active spans are larger than originally estimated
> (~500-800 bytes) because the OTel SDK `Span` object includes a mutex (~40 bytes), `SpanData`
> recordable (~250 bytes base), and `std::map`-based attribute storage (~200-500 bytes for 3-5
> string attributes). See [Section 3.5.4](./03-implementation-strategy.md#354-performance-data-sources) for source references.
**Network (10-50 KB/s) — Calculation**:
Two sources of network overhead:
**(A) OTLP span export to Collector:**
| Sampling Rate | Effective Spans/sec | Avg Span Size (compressed) | Bandwidth |
| -------------------------- | ------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------ |
| 100% (dev only) | ~500 | ~500 bytes | ~250 KB/s |
| **10% (recommended prod)** | **~50** | **~500 bytes** | **~25 KB/s** |
| 1% (minimal) | ~5 | ~500 bytes | ~2.5 KB/s |
> The ~500 spans/sec at 100% comes from: ~100 TX spans + ~160 P2P context spans + ~23 consensus spans/round + ~50 RPC spans = ~500/sec. OTLP protobuf with gzip compression yields ~500 bytes/span average.
**(B) P2P trace context overhead** (added to existing messages, always-on regardless of sampling):
| Message Type | Rate | Context Size | Bandwidth |
| ------------- | -------- | ------------ | ------------- |
| TMTransaction | ~100/sec | 29 bytes | ~2.9 KB/s |
| TMValidation | ~50/sec | 29 bytes | ~1.5 KB/s |
| TMProposeSet | ~10/sec | 29 bytes | ~0.3 KB/s |
| **Total P2P** | | | **~4.7 KB/s** |
> **Combined**: 25 KB/s (OTLP export at 10%) + 5 KB/s (P2P context) ≈ **~30 KB/s typical**. The 10-50 KB/s range covers 10-20% sampling under normal to peak mainnet load.
**Latency (<2%) — Calculation**:
| Path | Tracing Cost | Baseline | Overhead |
| ------------------------------ | ------------ | -------- | -------- |
| Fast RPC (e.g., `server_info`) | 2.75 μs | ~1 ms | 0.275% |
| Slow RPC (e.g., `path_find`) | 2.75 μs | ~100 ms | 0.003% |
| Transaction processing | 4.0 μs | ~200 μs | 2.0% |
| Consensus round | 36 μs | ~3 sec | 0.001% |
> At p99, even the worst case (TX processing at 2.0%) is within the 1-3% range. RPC and consensus overhead are negligible. On production hardware, TX overhead drops to ~1.3%.
### Per-Message Overhead (Context Propagation)
Each P2P message carries trace context with the following overhead:
| Field | Size | Description |
| ------------- | ------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| `trace_id` | 16 bytes | Unique identifier for the entire trace |
| `span_id` | 8 bytes | Current span (becomes parent on receiver) |
| `trace_flags` | 1 byte | Sampling decision flags |
| `trace_state` | 0-4 bytes | Optional vendor-specific data |
| **Total** | **~29 bytes** | **Added per traced P2P message** |
```mermaid
flowchart LR

end
subgraph breakdown["Context Breakdown"]
C["trace_id<br/>16 bytes"]
D["span_id<br/>8 bytes"]
E["flags<br/>1 byte"]
F["state<br/>0-4 bytes"]
end

style E fill:#e65100,stroke:#bf360c,color:#fff
style F fill:#4a148c,stroke:#2e0d57,color:#fff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **Original Message (gray, left)**: The existing P2P message payload of variable size this is unchanged; trace context is appended, never modifying the original data.
- **+ TraceContext (green, right of message)**: The additional 29-byte context block attached to each traced message; the arrow from the original message shows it is a pure addition.
- **Context Breakdown (right subgraph)**: The four fields `trace_id` (16 bytes), `span_id` (8 bytes), `flags` (1 byte), and `state` (0-4 bytes) show exactly what is added and their individual sizes.
- **Color coding**: Blue fields (`trace_id`, `span_id`) are the core identifiers required for trace correlation; orange (`flags`) controls sampling decisions; purple (`state`) is optional vendor data typically omitted.
> **Note**: 29 bytes represents ~1-6% overhead depending on message size (500B simple TX to 5KB proposal), which is acceptable for the observability benefits provided.

### Kill Switches (Rollback Options)
1. **Config Disable**: Set `enabled=0` in config instant disable, no restart needed for sampling
2. **Rebuild**: Compile with `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=OFF` zero overhead (no-op)
3. **Full Revert**: Clean separation allows easy commit reversion
---
## Slide 9: Sampling Strategies — Head vs. Tail
> Sampling controls **which traces are recorded and exported**. Without sampling, every operation generates a trace — at 500+ spans/sec, this overwhelms storage and network. Sampling lets you keep the signal, discard the noise.
### Head Sampling (Decision at Start)
The sampling decision is made **when a trace begins**, before any work is done. A random number is generated; if it falls within the configured ratio, the entire trace is recorded. Otherwise, the trace is silently dropped.
```mermaid
flowchart LR
A["New Request<br/>Arrives"] --> B{"Random < 10%?"}
B -->|"Yes (1 in 10)"| C["Record Entire Trace<br/>(all spans)"]

```
| Aspect | Details |
| ----------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Where it runs** | Inside xrpld (SDK-level). Configured via `sampling_ratio` in `xrpld.cfg`. |
| **When the decision happens** | At trace creation time before the first span is even populated. |
| **How it works** | `sampling_ratio=0.1` means each trace has a 10% probability of being recorded. Dropped traces incur near-zero overhead (no spans created, no attributes set, no export). |
| **Propagation** | Once a trace is sampled, the `trace_flags` field (1 byte in the context header) tells downstream nodes to also sample it. Unsampled traces propagate `trace_flags=0`, so downstream nodes skip them too. |
| **Pros** | Lowest overhead. Simple to configure. Predictable resource usage. |
| **Cons** | **Blind** it doesn't know if the trace will be interesting. A rare error or slow consensus round has only a 10% chance of being captured. |
| **Best for** | High-volume, steady-state traffic where most traces look similar (e.g., routine RPC requests). |
**xrpld configuration**:
```ini
[telemetry]
# Record 10% of traces (recommended for production)
sampling_ratio=0.1
```
### Tail Sampling (Decision at End)
The sampling decision is made **after the trace completes**, based on its actual content was it slow? Did it error? Was it a consensus round? This requires buffering complete traces before deciding.
```mermaid

A["All Traces<br/>Buffered (100%)"] --> B["OTel Collector<br/>Evaluates Rules"]

```
| Aspect | Details |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Where it runs** | In the **OTel Collector** (external process), not inside xrpld. xrpld exports 100% of traces; the Collector decides what to keep. |
| **When the decision happens** | After the Collector has received all spans for a trace (waits `decision_wait=10s` for stragglers). |
| **How it works** | Policy rules evaluate the completed trace: keep all errors, keep slow operations above a threshold, keep all consensus rounds, then probabilistically sample the rest at 10%. |
| **Pros** | **Never misses important traces**. Errors, slow requests, and consensus anomalies are always captured regardless of probability. |
| **Cons** | Higher resource usage xrpld must export 100% of spans to the Collector, which buffers them in memory before deciding. The Collector needs more RAM (configured via `num_traces` and `decision_wait`). |
| **Best for** | Production troubleshooting where you can't afford to miss errors or anomalies. |
**Collector configuration** (tail sampling rules for xrpld):
```yaml
processors:
tail_sampling:
decision_wait: 10s # Wait for all spans in a trace
num_traces: 100000 # Buffer up to 100K concurrent traces
policies:
- name: errors # Always keep error traces
type: status_code
status_code: { status_codes: [ERROR] }
- name: slow-consensus # Keep consensus rounds >5s
type: latency
latency: { threshold_ms: 5000 }
- name: slow-rpc # Keep slow RPC requests >1s
type: latency
latency: { threshold_ms: 1000 }
- name: probabilistic # Sample 10% of everything else
type: probabilistic
probabilistic: { sampling_percentage: 10 }
```
### Head vs. Tail — Side-by-Side
| | Head Sampling | Tail Sampling |
| ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **Decision point** | Trace start (inside xrpld) | Trace end (in OTel Collector) |
| **Knows trace content?** | No (random coin flip) | Yes (evaluates completed trace) |
| **Overhead on xrpld** | Lowest (dropped traces = no-op) | Higher (must export 100% to Collector) |
| **Collector resource usage** | Low (receives only sampled traces) | Higher (buffers all traces before deciding) |
| **Captures all errors?** | No (only if trace was randomly selected) | **Yes** (error policy catches them) |
| **Captures slow operations?** | No (random) | **Yes** (latency policy catches them) |
| **Configuration** | `xrpld.cfg`: `sampling_ratio=0.1` | `otel-collector.yaml`: `tail_sampling` processor |
| **Best for** | High-throughput steady-state | Troubleshooting & anomaly detection |
### Recommended Strategy for xrpld
Use **both** in a layered approach:
```mermaid
flowchart LR
subgraph xrpld["xrpld (Head Sampling)"]
HS["sampling_ratio=1.0<br/>(export everything)"]
end
subgraph collector["OTel Collector (Tail Sampling)"]
TS["Keep: errors + slow + 10% random<br/>Drop: routine traces"]
end
subgraph storage["Backend Storage"]
ST["Only interesting traces<br/>stored long-term"]
end
xrpld -->|"100% of spans"| collector -->|"~15-20% kept"| storage
style xrpld fill:#424242,stroke:#212121,color:#fff
style collector fill:#1565c0,stroke:#0d47a1,color:#fff
style storage fill:#2e7d32,stroke:#1b5e20,color:#fff
```
> **Why this works**: xrpld exports everything (no blind drops), the Collector applies intelligent filtering (keep errors/slow/anomalies, sample the rest), and only ~15-20% of traces reach storage. If Collector resource usage becomes a concern, add head sampling at `sampling_ratio=0.5` to halve the export volume while still giving the Collector enough data for good tail-sampling decisions.

## Slide 10: Data Collection & Privacy
### What Data is Collected
| Category | Attributes Collected | Purpose |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------- |
| **Transaction** | `tx_hash`, `tx_type`, `tx_result`, `tx_fee`, `ledger_index` | Trace transaction lifecycle |
| **Consensus** | `consensus_round`, `consensus_phase`, `consensus_mode`, `proposers` (count of proposing validators), `round_time_ms` | Analyze consensus timing |
| **RPC** | `command`, `version`, `rpc_status`, `duration_ms` | Monitor RPC performance |
| **Peer** | `peer_id`(public key), `peer_latency_ms`, `message_type`, `message_size_bytes` | Network topology analysis |
| **Ledger** | `ledger_hash`, `ledger_index`, `close_time`, `ledger_tx_count` | Ledger progression tracking |
| **Job** | `job_type`, `job_queue_ms`, `job_worker` | JobQueue performance |
### What is NOT Collected (Privacy Guarantees)
```mermaid
flowchart LR
subgraph notCollected["❌ NOT Collected"]
direction LR
A["Private Keys"] ~~~ B["Account Balances"] ~~~ C["Transaction Amounts"]
end
subgraph alsoNot["❌ Also Excluded"]
direction LR
D["IP Addresses<br/>(configurable)"] ~~~ E["Personal Data"] ~~~ F["Raw TX Payloads"]
end

style E fill:#c62828,stroke:#8c2809,color:#fff
style F fill:#c62828,stroke:#8c2809,color:#fff
```
**Reading the diagram:**
- **NOT Collected (top row, red)**: Private Keys, Account Balances, and Transaction Amounts are explicitly excluded these are financial/security-sensitive fields that telemetry never touches.
- **Also Excluded (bottom row, red)**: IP Addresses (configurable per deployment), Personal Data, and Raw TX Payloads are also excluded these protect operator and user privacy.
- **All-red styling**: Every box is styled in red to visually reinforce that these are hard exclusions, not optional the telemetry system has no code path to collect any of these fields.
- **Two-row layout**: The split between "NOT Collected" and "Also Excluded" distinguishes between financial data (top) and operational/personal data (bottom), making the privacy boundaries clear to auditors.
### Privacy Protection Mechanisms
| Mechanism | Description |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Account Hashing** | `tx_account` is hashed at collector level before storage |
| **Configurable Redaction** | Sensitive fields can be excluded via config |
| **Sampling** | Only 10% of traces recorded by default (reduces exposure) |
| **Local Control** | Node operators control what gets exported |
| **No Raw Payloads** | Transaction content is never recorded, only metadata |
> **Key Principle**: Telemetry collects **operational metadata** (timing, counts, hashes) — never **sensitive content** (keys, balances, amounts).

# Securing OpenTelemetry Against Trace Context Spoofing
> **Part of**: [OpenTelemetry Implementation Plan](./OpenTelemetryPlan.md) — see also [Design Decisions § Privacy](./02-design-decisions.md#244-privacy--sensitive-data-policy) (what we don't collect) and [Configuration Reference § 5.5](./05-configuration-reference.md#55-opentelemetry-collector-configuration) (collector base config).
Trace context spoofing (or poisoning) occurs when untrusted actors inject tampered or stale trace IDs into your system. If these requests are processed, the spans are appended to historical trace buckets, stretching trace durations, ruining p99 latency metrics, and breaking Grafana dashboards.
This guide outlines two categories of defense: mitigating tampered contexts and locking down the OpenTelemetry (OTel) Collector to trusted clients only.
---
## Part 1: Mitigating Tampered Trace Contexts
### 1. Perimeter Defense: Strip Headers at the API Gateway
The most effective way to prevent spoofing from external sources is to treat your API Gateway (Envoy, NGINX, AWS ALB) as a hard boundary. Strip incoming W3C tracing headers (`traceparent`, `tracestate`) from public traffic so the gateway is forced to generate a fresh, legitimate `trace_id`.
**NGINX Example (Stripping Headers):**
```nginx
server {
listen 80;
location {
# Clear out untrusted incoming trace headers
proxy_set_header traceparent "";
proxy_set_header tracestate "";
proxy_pass http://backend_service;
}
}
```
### **2. Timestamp-Anchored Trace IDs and OTTL Filtering**
If you use a custom trace ID generator that embeds a timestamp in the first few bytes (like AWS X-Ray or UUIDv7), you can use the OTel Collector's OpenTelemetry Transform Language (OTTL) to detect anomalies.
**Collector Configuration (Conceptual OTTL Filter):**
```yaml
processors:
filter/stale_traces:
error_mode: ignore
traces:
span:
# Example: Drop spans where the start time is significantly different
# from an expected parameter or embedded timestamp logic.
# Note: Standard W3C trace IDs do not contain timestamps by default.
- 'Keep out-of-bounds spans: time.sub(start_time, now()) > duration("1h")'
```
## **Part 2: Restricting Access to the OTel Collector**
Locking down the Collector ensures that only authenticated, trusted clients can submit telemetry data.
### **Approach A: Network Layer Security (Kubernetes Network Policies)**
Ensure your Collector is not exposed to the public internet. If running in Kubernetes, use a NetworkPolicy to restrict ingress traffic to specific namespaces.
**Kubernetes NetworkPolicy Example:**
```yaml
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
name: allow-internal-otel
namespace: observability
spec:
podSelector:
matchLabels:
app: opentelemetry-collector
policyTypes:
- Ingress
ingress:
- from:
- namespaceSelector:
matchLabels:
environment: production
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 4317 # gRPC
- protocol: TCP
port: 4318 # HTTP
```
### **Approach B: Transport Layer Security (Mutual TLS / mTLS)**
Require clients to present a valid cryptographic certificate to connect to the Collector.
**Collector Configuration (mTLS):**
```yaml
receivers:
otlp:
protocols:
grpc:
endpoint: 0.0.0.0:4317
tls:
client_ca_file: /certs/client_ca.pem # CA that signs trusted client certs
cert_file: /certs/collector.pem
key_file: /certs/collector.key
auth_type: require_and_verify_client_cert # Rejects unauthorized clients
```
### **Approach C: Application Layer Authentication (Basic Auth Extension)**
Use the Collector's extension system to require an API key or Basic Auth credentials.
**Collector Configuration (Basic Auth):**
```yaml
extensions:
basicauth/collector:
htpasswd:
inline: |
# username:trusted-client, password:SecurePassword123
trusted-client:$apr1$4v8p76o6$DMTX5Wv6uOmrFAZp2X1N1.
receivers:
otlp:
protocols:
grpc:
endpoint: 0.0.0.0:4317
auth:
authenticator: basicauth/collector
processors:
batch:
exporters:
otlp:
endpoint: my-backend-storage:4317
service:
extensions: [basicauth/collector]
pipelines:
traces:
receivers: [otlp]
processors: [batch]
exporters: [otlp]
```
**Client Setup (Environment Variables):**
Developers must pass the authentication header using the standard OTel SDK environment variables:
```bash
# Base64 encoded "trusted-client:SecurePassword123"
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="Authorization=Basic dHJ1c3RlZC1jbGllbnQ6U2VjdXJlUGFzc3dvcmQxMjM="
```

# Analysis: Applying the Guide to xrpld
The guide above is written for HTTP-fronted web services. xrpld is a P2P node daemon, so the threat model and the applicable defenses differ. This section captures how each approach maps to xrpld and the chosen direction.
## Threat Model
xrpld has **two distinct attack surfaces**, not one. The original guide conflates them under "trace context spoofing"; for xrpld they need separate defenses.
| Surface | Attacker | Vector | Defense |
| ----------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------- |
| **Collector ingress** (xrpld → collector) | Anyone who can reach `4317`/`4318` on the collector host | Forged OTLP traffic, telemetry exfiltration, DoS on collector | mTLS + network policy |
| **Peer trace context** (peer → xrpld) | Malicious peer in the XRPL overlay | Crafted `protocol::TraceContext` field inside peer protobuf messages (TMTransaction, consensus, etc.) — used to forge `trace_id`/`span_id`, pollute p99, attach spans to historical traces | Validate + rate-limit at the receive boundary |
**Deployment context:** Across-network. xrpld nodes (potentially run by external operators or in different DCs) ship telemetry to a centrally-hosted collector across an untrusted network. The collector is NOT on the same host or private VPC as every node.
```

```
## Part 1 Applicability — Peer Trace-Context Validation
The guide's NGINX header stripping and OTTL stale-span filtering target HTTP gateways and post-hoc cleanup. Neither fits xrpld directly:
- **NGINX header stripping** — N/A. There is no HTTP gateway between peers and xrpld; trace context arrives inside protobuf peer messages (`protocol::TraceContext`), not as W3C `traceparent` headers. See [src/xrpld/telemetry/PropagationHelpers.h](../src/xrpld/telemetry/PropagationHelpers.h).
- **OTTL stale-span filtering** — Weak fit. Post-hoc cleanup at the collector loses peer identity (you can't tell _which_ peer poisoned the trace). Validation at the receive site is stronger.
**xrpld-specific Part 1 mitigations:**
1. **Validate extracted context at the boundary** in [src/xrpld/telemetry/ConsensusReceiveTracing.h](../src/xrpld/telemetry/ConsensusReceiveTracing.h) and any other peer-message receive site. Reject if `trace_id` is all-zero, wrong length, or fails W3C format checks. Treat invalid context as "no propagated context" — start a fresh span — rather than dropping the message.
2. **Per-peer sample rate limiting** so a hostile peer cannot flood the collector with spans bearing a fabricated `trace_id`. Use probabilistic sampling on the receive path keyed by peer identity.
## Part 2 — Comparison of Collector Hardening Approaches
Evaluated for the across-network deployment shape:
| Approach | Across-network fit | Cost | Verdict |
| ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| **A. NetworkPolicy / firewall** | Necessary baseline (don't expose `4317`/`4318` to the internet), but insufficient on its own when traffic genuinely crosses networks — you cannot NetworkPolicy the public internet. | Cheap. | **Defense-in-depth, not primary.** |
| **B. mTLS** | Strongest fit. Every xrpld node holds a client cert; collector verifies with `require_and_verify_client_cert`. Encrypts in transit (raw OTLP over the internet leaks transaction patterns and validator identity). Compromised node = revoke one cert, no shared secret to rotate everywhere. | Cert issuance + rotation pipeline. | **Primary.** |
| **C. Basic Auth** | Worst shape for this topology. Single shared password across all xrpld nodes — one leaked node config compromises the whole fleet. Doesn't encrypt; you'd need TLS underneath anyway, at which point you're 80% of the way to mTLS. | Cheap to set up, expensive to operate (rotation across N operators). | **Skip.** |
## Decision
**Primary defense:** mTLS (Approach B) on the collector's OTLP receivers, with `auth_type: require_and_verify_client_cert`.
**Defense-in-depth:** NetworkPolicy / firewall rules (Approach A) so `4317`/`4318` are never reachable from outside the expected operator subnets even if mTLS were misconfigured.
**Skipped:** Basic Auth (Approach C) — wrong shape for an across-network, multi-operator topology.
**Plus xrpld-specific Part 1 work:** trace-context validation and per-peer rate limiting at peer-message receive sites.
## Decisions Made
| Decision | Choice | Rationale |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Cert source for mTLS | **Reuse XRPL node identity key** | One identity per node, no separate PKI to operate. Fits XRPL's existing trust model; requires small CA tooling step to derive/sign the OTel client cert from the node key. |
| Part 1 scope | **Include in this spec** | Collector hardening and peer trace-context validation share one threat model. Coherent design doc; can still be split into multiple PRs at implementation. |
| Dev impact | **Production-only** | Local `docker/telemetry/docker-compose.yml` keeps `insecure: true` and no auth for fast iteration. Only production deployment manifests gain mTLS. Accepted risk: minor dev/prod drift, mitigated by integration tests against a TLS-enabled collector in CI. |
## Out of Scope
- NGINX/Envoy header stripping (no HTTP gateway in front of xrpld-to-collector traffic).
- OTTL stale-span filtering at the collector (weaker than source validation; loses peer identity).
- Local development docker-compose hardening.
- Telemetry backend (Tempo) hardening — separate concern, downstream of the collector.
## Next Step
Write this up as a design doc with full sections covering:
1. Threat model & architecture (this section, expanded)
2. Collector hardening — mTLS config, NetworkPolicy
3. Cert pipeline — deriving OTel client cert from XRPL node key
4. Peer trace-context validation — receive-site checks in `ConsensusReceiveTracing.h`
5. Per-peer span rate limiting
6. Testing & rollout

## Overview
xrpld supports optional [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) distributed tracing.
When enabled, it instruments RPC requests with trace spans that are exported via
OTLP/HTTP to an OpenTelemetry Collector, which forwards them to a tracing backend
such as Grafana Tempo.
Telemetry is **off by default** at both compile time and runtime:
- **Compile time**: The Conan option `telemetry` and CMake option `telemetry` must be set to `True`/`ON`.
When disabled, all `SpanGuard` calls compile to inline no-ops (defined in `SpanGuard.h`)
with zero overhead — no OTel SDK dependency required.
- **Runtime**: The `[telemetry]` config section must set `enabled=1`.
When disabled at runtime, a no-op implementation is used.
## Building with Telemetry
### Summary
Follow the same instructions as mentioned in [BUILD.md](../../BUILD.md) but with the following changes:
1. Pass `-o telemetry=True` to `conan install` to pull the `opentelemetry-cpp` dependency.
2. CMake will automatically pick up `telemetry=ON` from the Conan-generated toolchain.
3. Build as usual.
---
### Build steps
```bash
cd /path/to/xrpld
rm -rf .build
mkdir .build
cd .build
```
#### Install dependencies
The `telemetry` option adds `opentelemetry-cpp/1.26.0` as a dependency.
If the Conan lockfile does not yet include this package, bypass it with `--lockfile=""`.
```bash
conan install .. \
--output-folder . \
--build missing \
--settings build_type=Debug \
-o telemetry=True \
-o tests=True \
-o xrpld=True \
--lockfile=""
```
> **Note**: The first build with telemetry may take longer as `opentelemetry-cpp`
> and its transitive dependencies are compiled from source.
#### Call CMake
The Conan-generated toolchain file sets `telemetry=ON` automatically.
No additional CMake flags are needed beyond the standard ones.
```bash
cmake .. -G Ninja \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE:FILEPATH=build/generators/conan_toolchain.cmake \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug \
-Dtests=ON -Dxrpld=ON
```
You should see in the CMake output:
```
-- OpenTelemetry tracing enabled
```
#### Build
```bash
cmake --build . --parallel $(nproc)
```
## Building without telemetry
Omit the `-o telemetry=True` option (or pass `-o telemetry=False`).
The `opentelemetry-cpp` dependency will not be downloaded,
the `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY` preprocessor define will not be set,
and all tracing macros will compile to no-ops.
The resulting binary is identical to one built before telemetry support was added.
## Troubleshooting
### Conan lockfile error
If you see `ERROR: Requirement 'opentelemetry-cpp/1.26.0' not in lockfile 'requires'`,
the lockfile was generated without the telemetry dependency.
Pass `--lockfile=""` to bypass the lockfile, or regenerate it with telemetry enabled.
### CMake target not found
If CMake reports that `opentelemetry-cpp` targets are not found,
ensure you ran `conan install` with `-o telemetry=True` and that the
Conan-generated toolchain file is being used.
The Conan package provides a single umbrella target
`opentelemetry-cpp::opentelemetry-cpp` (not individual component targets).
## Conditional compilation
All OpenTelemetry SDK types are hidden behind the pimpl idiom in `SpanGuard.cpp`.
When `XRPL_ENABLE_TELEMETRY` is not defined, `SpanGuard.h` provides an all-inline
no-op stub class with zero overhead and zero OTel dependencies.
At runtime, if `enabled=0` is set in config (or the section is omitted), a
`NullTelemetry` implementation is used that returns no-op spans.
This two-layer approach ensures zero overhead when telemetry is not wanted.

# xrpld Telemetry Operator Runbook
## Overview
xrpld supports OpenTelemetry distributed tracing to provide visibility into RPC requests, transaction processing, and consensus rounds.
This runbook covers operating a running node and querying its traces. For
building xrpld with telemetry support and the internal architecture, see
[build/telemetry.md](build/telemetry.md).
## Quick Start
### 1. Start the observability stack
```bash
docker compose -f docker/telemetry/docker-compose.yml up -d
```
This starts:
- **OTel Collector** on ports 4317 (gRPC), 4318 (HTTP), and 13133 (health)
- **Tempo** trace storage on http://localhost:3200
- **Grafana** on http://localhost:3000 (Tempo pre-configured as datasource)
### 2. Enable telemetry in xrpld
Add to your `xrpld.cfg`:
```ini
[telemetry]
enabled=1
endpoint=http://localhost:4318/v1/traces
```
### 3. Build with telemetry support
```bash
conan install . --build=missing -o telemetry=True
cmake --preset default -Dtelemetry=ON
cmake --build --preset default
```

```
## Insights and Sample Queries
This section shows what questions you can now answer using the enriched span attributes, with example Tempo TraceQL queries.
### Transaction Workflow Analysis
```
# Find all AMM transactions (AMMDeposit, AMMWithdraw, AMMCreate, etc.)
{name="tx.process"} | tx_type =~ "AMM.*"
# Find Payment transactions that failed
{name="tx.process"} | tx_type = "Payment" && ter_result != "tesSUCCESS"
# Compare latency of different transaction types
{name="tx.process"} | tx_type = "OfferCreate"
{name="tx.process"} | tx_type = "Payment"
# Find high-fee transactions (fee > 1 XRP = 1000000 drops)

```
### Where to Look (Quick Reference)
| Question | Span | Key Attributes |
| ----------------------------------- | --------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| "Which tx type is slowest?" | `tx.process` | `tx_type` + duration |
| "Why was my tx rejected?" | `tx.process` | `ter_result`, `applied` |
| "Is the TxQ backing up?" | `txq.accept` | `queue_size`, `ledger_changed` |
| "Why was my tx dropped from queue?" | `txq.accept_tx` | `txq_status`, `ter_code` |
| "Are batch requests a problem?" | `rpc.process` | `is_batch`, `batch_size` |
| "Which RPC is expensive?" | `rpc.command.*` | `load_type`, duration |
| "Did consensus stall?" | `consensus.check` | `consensus_stalled` |
| "Was consensus outcome normal?" | `consensus.accept` | `consensus_state` |
| "Did a validator bow out?" | `consensus.proposal.send` | `is_bow_out` |
| "Which ledger was validated?" | `consensus.validation.send` | `ledger_hash` |
---
## Cross-Node Trace Propagation
xrpld propagates trace context across nodes via protobuf `TraceContext` fields
embedded in peer-to-peer messages. When Node A sends a transaction, proposal,
or validation, it injects its active span's trace/span IDs into the protobuf
message. Node B extracts that context on receipt and creates a child span,
linking the two nodes into a single distributed trace.
### How It Works
```
Node A (sender) Node B (receiver)
+-----------------------------+ +-------------------------------+
| tx.process / consensus.* | | PeerImp::onMessage() |
| | | | | |
| v | | v |
| SpanGuard::getTraceBytes() | | extract TraceContext from |
| | | | protobuf message |
| v | send | | |
| injectSpanContext() --------|--------->| v |
| sets TraceContext fields | proto | txReceiveSpan() |
| (trace_id, span_id, flags) | msg | proposalReceiveSpan() |
+-----------------------------+ | validationReceiveSpan() |
| | |
| v |
| child span with parent link |
+-------------------------------+
```
### Send-Side Injection
| Message Type | Injection Point | Mechanism |
| ------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| TMTransaction | `NetworkOPs::apply()` | Injects `tx.process` span into relay msg |
| TMProposeSet | `RCLConsensus::propose()` | Injects active context into proposal msg |
| TMValidation | `RCLConsensus::validate()` | Injects active context into validation msg |
### Receive-Side Extraction
| Message Type | Extraction Point | Helper Function |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| TMTransaction | `PeerImp::onMessage(TMTransaction)` | `TxTracing::txReceiveSpan()` |
| TMProposeSet | `PeerImp::onMessage(TMProposeSet)` | `ConsensusReceiveTracing::proposalReceiveSpan()` |
| TMValidation | `PeerImp::onMessage(TMValidation)` | `ConsensusReceiveTracing::validationReceiveSpan()` |
### Key Files
| File | Role |
| ------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| `src/xrpld/telemetry/PropagationHelpers.h` | `injectSpanContext()` — SpanGuard to protobuf |
| `include/xrpl/telemetry/TraceContextPropagator.h` | OTel context <-> protobuf conversion primitives |
| `src/xrpld/telemetry/ConsensusReceiveTracing.h` | Proposal/validation receive span factories |
| `src/xrpld/telemetry/TxTracing.h` | Transaction receive span factory |
### Backwards Compatibility
Older peers that do not populate `TraceContext` fields in their messages will
simply produce empty trace bytes on the receive side. The extraction helpers
detect this and create standalone (root) spans instead of child spans. No
errors are logged and no data is lost — the receive span is still created with
all its normal attributes, it just lacks a cross-node parent link.
### Example Tempo Queries
```
# Find cross-node transaction traces (tx.process -> tx.receive across nodes)
{name="tx.receive"} && status != error
# Find proposals received with cross-node parent context
{name="consensus.proposal.receive"} && nestedSetParent > 0
# Trace a transaction across the network by its hash
{name=~"tx\\..*"} | tx_hash = "<hash>"
# Find all spans in a cross-node consensus trace
{rootServiceName="xrpld"} | consensus_round_id = "<round_id>"
# Compare latency between sender and receiver for validations
{name="consensus.validation.send" || name="consensus.validation.receive"}
```
## Prometheus Metrics (Spanmetrics)
The OTel Collector's spanmetrics connector automatically derives RED (Rate, Errors, Duration) metrics from every span. No custom metrics code is needed in xrpld.
### Generated Metric Names
| Prometheus Metric | Type | Description |
| -------------------------------------------------- | --------- | ---------------------------- |
| `traces_span_metrics_calls_total` | Counter | Total span invocations |
| `traces_span_metrics_duration_milliseconds_bucket` | Histogram | Latency distribution buckets |
| `traces_span_metrics_duration_milliseconds_count` | Histogram | Latency observation count |
| `traces_span_metrics_duration_milliseconds_sum` | Histogram | Cumulative latency |
### Metric Labels
Every metric carries these standard labels:
| Label | Source | Example |
| -------------- | ------------------ | ---------------------------------------- |
| `span_name` | Span name | `rpc.command.server_info` |
| `status_code` | Span status | `STATUS_CODE_UNSET`, `STATUS_CODE_ERROR` |
| `service_name` | Resource attribute | `xrpld` |
| `span_kind` | Span kind | `SPAN_KIND_INTERNAL` |
Additionally, span attributes configured as dimensions in the collector become metric labels (dots → underscores):
| Span Attribute | Metric Label | Applies To |
| ---------------- | --------------------- | ------------------------------ |
| `command` | `xrpl_rpc_command` | `rpc.command.*` spans |
| `rpc_status` | `xrpl_rpc_status` | `rpc.command.*` spans |
| `consensus_mode` | `xrpl_consensus_mode` | `consensus.ledger_close` spans |
| `local` | `xrpl_tx_local` | `tx.process` spans |
### Histogram Buckets
Configured in `otel-collector-config.yaml`:
```
1ms, 5ms, 10ms, 25ms, 50ms, 100ms, 250ms, 500ms, 1s, 5s
```
## Grafana Dashboards
Three dashboards are pre-provisioned in `docker/telemetry/grafana/dashboards/`:

## Troubleshooting
### No traces appearing in Tempo
1. Check xrpld logs for `Telemetry starting` message
2. Verify `enabled=1` in the `[telemetry]` config section
3. Test collector connectivity: `curl -v http://localhost:4318/v1/traces`
4. Check collector logs: `docker compose -f docker/telemetry/docker-compose.yml logs otel-collector`
5. Verify Tempo is receiving data: open Grafana → Explore → select Tempo datasource → search by `service.name = xrpld`
6. Check Tempo logs: `docker compose -f docker/telemetry/docker-compose.yml logs tempo`
### High memory usage
- Reduce trace volume with collector-side tail sampling (xrpld head sampling is
fixed at 1.0 and is not configurable)
- Reduce `max_queue_size` and `batch_size`
- Disable high-volume trace categories: `trace_peer=0`
### Collector connection failures
- Verify endpoint URL matches collector address
- Check firewall rules for ports 4317/4318
- If using TLS, verify certificate path with `tls_ca_cert`
## Performance Tuning
| Scenario | Recommendation |
| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| Production mainnet | `trace_peer=0`; reduce volume via collector tail sampling |
| Testnet/devnet | Full tracing (head sampling fixed at 1.0) |
| Debugging specific issue | Full tracing (head sampling fixed at 1.0) |
| High-throughput node | Increase `batch_size=1024`, `max_queue_size=4096` |
## Disabling Telemetry
Set `enabled=0` in config (runtime disable) or build without the flag:
```bash
cmake --preset default -Dtelemetry=OFF
```
When telemetry is compiled out, all trace macros expand to no-ops with zero overhead.
