Описание (Description)
pmdabash
is an experimental Performance Metrics Domain Agent
(PMDA) which exports "xtrace" events from a traced bash(1)
process. This includes the command execution information that
would usually be sent to standard error with the set -x
option to
the shell.
Event metrics are exported showing each command executed, the
function name and line number in the script, and a timestamp.
Additionally, the process identifier for the shell and its parent
process are exported.
This requires bash
version 4 or later.
A brief description of the pmdabash
command line options follows:
-d
It is absolutely crucial that the performance metrics domain
number specified here is unique and consistent. That is,
domain should be different for every PMDA on the one host,
and the same domain number should be used for the same PMDA
on all hosts.
-l
Location of the log file. By default, a log file named
bash.log is written in the current directory of pmcd(1) when
pmdabash
is started, i.e. $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd
. If the log
file cannot be created or is not writable, output is written
to the standard error instead.
-s
Amount of time (in seconds) between subsequent evaluations
of the shell trace file descriptor(s). The default is 2
seconds.
-m
Maximum amount of memory to be allowed for each event queue
(one per traced process). The default is 2 megabytes.
-U
User account under which to run the agent. The default is
the unprivileged "pcp" account in current versions of PCP,
but in older versions the superuser account ("root") was
used by default.
Установка (Installation)
In order for a host to export the names, help text and values for
the bash performance metrics, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/bash
# ./Install
As soon as an instrumented shell script (see INSTRUMENTATION
selection below) is run, with tracing enabled, new metric values
will appear - no further setup of the agent is required.
If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/bash
# ./Remove
pmdabash
is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed
directly. The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the
agent is installed or removed.
INSTRUMENTATION
In order to allow the flow of event data between a bash(1) script
and pmdabash
, the script should take the following actions:
#!/bin/sh
source $PCP_DIR/etc/pcp.env
source $PCP_SHARE_DIR/lib/bashproc.sh
pcp_trace on $@ # enable tracing
echo "awoke, $count"
pcp_trace off # disable tracing
The tracing can be enabled and disabled any number of times by
the script. On successful installation of the agent, several
metrics will be available:
$ pminfo bash
bash.xtrace.numclients
bash.xtrace.maxmem
bash.xtrace.queuemem
bash.xtrace.count
bash.xtrace.records
bash.xtrace.parameters.pid
bash.xtrace.parameters.parent
bash.xtrace.parameters.lineno
bash.xtrace.parameters.function
bash.xtrace.parameters.command
When an instrumented script is running, the generation of event
records can be verified using the pmevent(1) command, as follows:
$ pmevent -t 1 -x '' bash.xtrace.records
host: localhost
samples: all
bash.xtrace.records["4538 ./test-trace.sh 1 2 3"]: 5 event records
10:00:05.000 --- event record [0] flags 0x19 (point,id,parent) ---
bash.xtrace.parameters.pid 4538
bash.xtrace.parameters.parent 4432
bash.xtrace.parameters.lineno 43
bash.xtrace.parameters.command "true"
10:00:05.000 --- event record [1] flags 0x19 (point,id,parent) ---
bash.xtrace.parameters.pid 4538
bash.xtrace.parameters.parent 4432
bash.xtrace.parameters.lineno 45
bash.xtrace.parameters.command "(( count++ ))"
10:00:05.000 --- event record [2] flags 0x19 (point,id,parent) ---
bash.xtrace.parameters.pid 4538
bash.xtrace.parameters.parent 4432
bash.xtrace.parameters.lineno 46
bash.xtrace.parameters.command "echo 'awoke, 3'"
10:00:05.000 --- event record [3] flags 0x19 (point,id,parent) ---
bash.xtrace.parameters.pid 4538
bash.xtrace.parameters.parent 4432
bash.xtrace.parameters.lineno 47
bash.xtrace.parameters.command "tired 2"
10:00:05.000 --- event record [4] flags 0x19 (point,id,parent) ---
bash.xtrace.parameters.pid 4538
bash.xtrace.parameters.parent 4432
bash.xtrace.parameters.lineno 38
bash.xtrace.parameters.function "tired"
bash.xtrace.parameters.command "sleep 2"

Окружение PCP (PCP environment)
Environment variables with the prefix PCP_
are used to
parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP. On each
installation, the file /etc/pcp.conf
contains the local values
for these variables. The $PCP_CONF
variable may be used to
specify an alternative configuration file, as described in
pcp.conf(5).
