Raw Blame History

=======
crimson
=======
Crimson is the code name of crimson-osd, which is the next generation ceph-osd.
It targets fast networking devices, fast storage devices by leveraging state of
the art technologies like DPDK and SPDK, for better performance. And it will
keep the support of HDDs and low-end SSDs via BlueStore. Crimson will try to
be backward compatible with classic OSD.
.. highlight:: console
Building Crimson
================
Crimson is not enabled by default. To enable it::
$ WITH_SEASTAR=true ./install-deps.sh
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake -DWITH_SEASTAR=ON ..
Please note, `ASan`_ is enabled by default if crimson is built from a source
cloned using git.
.. _ASan: https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizer
Running Crimson
===============
As you might expect, crimson is not featurewise on par with its predecessor yet.
object store backend
--------------------
At the moment, ``crimson-osd`` offers both native and alienized object store
backends. The native object store backends perform IO using seastar reactor.
They are:
.. describe:: cyanstore
CyanStore is modeled after memstore in classic OSD.
.. describe:: seastore
Seastore is still under active development.
While the alienized object store backends are backed by a thread pool, which
is a proxy of the alien store adaptor running in SeaStar. The proxy issues
requests to object stores running in alien threads, i.e., worker threads not
managed by the Seastar framework. They are:
.. describe:: memstore
The memory backed object store
.. describe:: bluestore
The object store used by classic OSD by default.
daemonize
---------
Unlike ``ceph-osd``, ``crimson-osd`` does not daemonize itself even if the
``daemonize`` option is enabled. Because, to read this option, ``crimson-osd``
needs to ready its config sharded service, but this sharded service lives
in the seastar reactor. If we fork a child process and exit the parent after
starting the Seastar engine, that will leave us with a single thread which is
the replica of the thread calls `fork()`_. This would unnecessarily complicate
the code, if we would have tackled this problem in crimson.
Since a lot of GNU/Linux distros are using systemd nowadays, which is able to
daemonize the application, there is no need to daemonize by ourselves. For
those who are using sysvinit, they can use ``start-stop-daemon`` for daemonizing
``crimson-osd``. If this is not acceptable, we can whip up a helper utility
to do the trick.
.. _fork(): http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/fork.html
logging
-------
Currently, ``crimson-osd`` uses the logging utility offered by Seastar. see
``src/common/dout.h`` for the mapping between different logging levels to
the severity levels in Seastar. For instance, the messages sent to ``derr``
will be printed using ``logger::error()``, and the messages with debug level
over ``20`` will be printed using ``logger::trace()``.
+---------+---------+
| ceph | seastar |
+---------+---------+
| < 0 | error |
+---------+---------+
| 0 | warn |
+---------+---------+
| [1, 6) | info |
+---------+---------+
| [6, 20] | debug |
+---------+---------+
| > 20 | trace |
+---------+---------+
Please note, ``crimson-osd``
does not send the logging message to specified ``log_file``. It writes
the logging messages to stdout and/or syslog. Again, this behavior can be
changed using ``--log-to-stdout`` and ``--log-to-syslog`` command line
options. By default, ``log-to-stdout`` is enabled, and the latter disabled.
vstart.sh
---------
To facilitate the development of crimson, following options would be handy when
using ``vstart.sh``,
``--crimson``
start ``crimson-osd`` instead of ``ceph-osd``
``--nodaemon``
do not daemonize the service
``--redirect-output``
redirect the stdout and stderr of service to ``out/$type.$num.stdout``.
``--osd-args``
pass extra command line options to crimson-osd or ceph-osd. It's quite
useful for passing Seastar options to crimson-osd. For instance, you could
use ``--osd-args "--memory 2G"`` to set the memory to use. Please refer
the output of::
crimson-osd --help-seastar
for more Seastar specific command line options.
``--cyanstore``
use the CyanStore as the object store backend.
``--bluestore``
use the alienized BlueStore as the object store backend. This is the default
setting, if not specified otherwise.
``--memstore``
use the alienized MemStore as the object store backend.
So, a typical command to start a single-crimson-node cluster is::
$ MGR=1 MON=1 OSD=1 MDS=0 RGW=0 ../src/vstart.sh -n -x \
--without-dashboard --cyanstore \
--crimson --redirect-output \
--osd-args "--memory 4G"
Where we assign 4 GiB memory, a single thread running on core-0 to crimson-osd.
You could stop the vstart cluster using::
$ ../src/stop.sh --crimson
Metrics and Tracing
===================
Crimson offers three ways to report the stats and metrics:
pg stats reported to mgr
------------------------
Crimson collects the per-pg, per-pool, and per-osd stats in a `MPGStats`
message, and send it over to mgr, so that the mgr modules can query
them using the `MgrModule.get()` method.
asock command
-------------
an asock command is offered for dumping the metrics::
$ ceph tell osd.0 dump_metrics
$ ceph tell osd.0 dump_metrics reactor_utilization
Where `reactor_utilization` is an optional string allowing us to filter
the dumped metrics by prefix.
Prometheus text protocol
------------------------
the listening port and address can be configured using the command line options of
`--prometheus_port`
see `Prometheus`_ for more details.
.. _Prometheus: https://github.com/scylladb/seastar/blob/master/doc/prometheus.md
Profiling Crimson
=================
fio
---
``crimson-store-nbd`` exposes configurable ``FuturizedStore`` internals as an
NBD server for use with fio.
To use fio to test ``crimson-store-nbd``,
#. You will need to install ``libnbd``, and compile fio like
.. prompt:: bash $
apt-get install libnbd-dev
git clone git://git.kernel.dk/fio.git
cd fio
./configure --enable-libnbd
make
#. Build ``crimson-store-nbd``
.. prompt:: bash $
cd build
ninja crimson-store-nbd
#. Run the ``crimson-store-nbd`` server with a block device. Please specify
the path to the raw device, like ``/dev/nvme1n1`` in place of the created
file for testing with a block device.
.. prompt:: bash $
export disk_img=/tmp/disk.img
export unix_socket=/tmp/store_nbd_socket.sock
rm -f $disk_img $unix_socket
truncate -s 512M $disk_img
./bin/crimson-store-nbd \
--device-path $disk_img \
--smp 1 \
--mkfs true \
--type transaction_manager \
--uds-path ${unix_socket} &
in which,
``--smp``
how many CPU cores are used
``--mkfs``
initialize the device first
``--type``
which backend to use. If ``transaction_manager`` is specified, SeaStore's
``TransactionManager`` and ``BlockSegmentManager`` are used to emulate a
block device. Otherwise, this option is used to choose a backend of
``FuturizedStore``, where the whole "device" is divided into multiple
fixed-size objects whose size is specified by ``--object-size``. So, if
you are only interested in testing the lower-level implementation of
SeaStore like logical address translation layer and garbage collection
without the object store semantics, ``transaction_manager`` would be a
better choice.
#. Create an fio job file named ``nbd.fio``
.. code:: ini
[global]
ioengine=nbd
uri=nbd+unix:///?socket=${unix_socket}
rw=randrw
time_based
runtime=120
group_reporting
iodepth=1
size=512M
[job0]
offset=0
#. Test the crimson object store using the fio compiled just now
.. prompt:: bash $
./fio nbd.fio

Hacking Crimson
===============
Seastar Documents
-----------------
See `Seastar Tutorial <https://github.com/scylladb/seastar/blob/master/doc/tutorial.md>`_ .
Or build a browsable version and start an HTTP server::
$ cd seastar
$ ./configure.py --mode debug
$ ninja -C build/debug docs
$ python3 -m http.server -d build/debug/doc/html
You might want to install ``pandoc`` and other dependencies beforehand.
Debugging Crimson
=================
Debugging with GDB
------------------
The `tips`_ for debugging Scylla also apply to Crimson.
.. _tips: https://github.com/scylladb/scylla/blob/master/docs/dev/debugging.md#tips-and-tricks
Human-readable backtraces with addr2line
----------------------------------------
When a seastar application crashes, it leaves us with a serial of addresses, like::
Segmentation fault.
Backtrace:
0x00000000108254aa
0x00000000107f74b9

Segmentation fault
``seastar-addr2line`` offered by Seastar can be used to decipher these
addresses. After running the script, it will be waiting for input from stdin,
so we need to copy and paste the above addresses, then send the EOF by inputting
``control-D`` in the terminal::
$ ../src/seastar/scripts/seastar-addr2line -e bin/crimson-osd
0x00000000108254aa

Unlike classic OSD, crimson does not print a human-readable backtrace when it
handles fatal signals like `SIGSEGV` or `SIGABRT`. And it is more complicated
when it comes to a stripped binary. So before planting a signal handler for
those signals in crimson, we could to use `script/ceph-debug-docker.sh` to parse
the addresses in the backtrace::
# assuming you are under the source tree of ceph
$ ./src/script/ceph-debug-docker.sh --flavor crimson master:27e237c137c330ebb82627166927b7681b20d0aa centos:8
