Описание (Description)
mmv_stats_registry initializes an opaque structure that defines
various aspects of a memory mapped file. This file is used for
lightweight interprocess communication between an instrumented
application and pmdammv(1).
The mmv_stats_registry interface is used to allocate a registry,
and allows the name of the MMV(5) file, the cluster identifier
and the flags (if any) to be set. It returns a handle that is
used in subsequent MMV API calls when adding metrics, indoms,
instances and labels to the registry - before actually creating
the file.
mmv_stats_start is the call that creates the MMV(5) file with the
handle that returns mmv_stats_registry. It returns the mapped
memory handle used in subsequent MMV API calls, such as
mmv_inc_value(3).
mmv_stats_stop performs an orderly shutdown of the mapping handle
returned by an earlier initialization call and also frees the
registry structure.
The combination of mmv_stats_registry and mmv_stats_start do the
same as the deprecated calls mmv_stats(2)_init. However, now,
one should first call mmv_stats_registry and then the API calls
that add instances, indoms, metrics and labels. In this way,
there is no need to know in advance which version of the
MMV(1|2|3) mapping will be used as it is calculated
automatically.
The file is created in the $PCP_TMP_DIR/mmv directory, the name
argument is expected to be a basename of the file, not the full
path. The metadata content of the file does not change after the
file has been created.
The old file is removed unconditionally unless there was an
error.
cluster is the preferred MMV PMDA cluster ID to be used for the
metrics the originates the call mmv_stats_start. The flags
provide additional control over the behaviour of the MMV PMDA -
e.g. use of MMV_FLAG_PROCESS will ensure values are only exported
when the instrumented application is running - this is verified
on each request for new values.
The next sections explain how to add metrics, indoms, instances
and labels.
Добавить метрики (Add metrics)
int mmv_stats_add_metric(mmv_registry_t *registry,
const char *name, int item,
mmv_metric_type_t type, mmv_metric_sem_t
sem, pmUnits units,
int serial, const char *shorthelp,
const char *longhelp);
When adding a metric, internally it is being handled using the
next struct. sem match in the struct is semantics. units match
in the struct is dimension. serial match in the struct is indom.
typedef struct {
char *name; /* Name of the metric */
__uint32_t item; /* Item component of PMID */
mmv_metric_type_t type; /* Type of the metric */
mmv_metric_sem_t semantics; /* Semantics of the metric */
pmUnits dimension; /* Dimensions (TIME,SPACE,etc) */
__uint32_t indom; /* Instance domain identifier */
char *shorttext; /* Optional, one-line help */
char *helptext; /* Optional, full help text */
} mmv_metric2_t;
Добавление индомов (Add indoms)
int mmv_stats_add_indom(mmv_registry_t *registry, int serial,
const char *shorthelp,
const char *longhelp);
When adding an indom, internally it is being handled using the
next struct.
typedef struct {
__uint32_t serial; /* Unique serial number */
__uint32_t count; /* Number of instances */
mmv_instances2_t *instances; /* Internal/external IDs */
char *shorttext; /* Short help text */
char *helptext; /* Long help text */
} mmv_indom2_t;
Добавить экземпляры (Add instances)
int mmv_stats_add_instance(mmv_registry_t *registry, int serial,
int instid, const char *instname);
When adding an instance, internally it is being handled using the
next struct. instid match in the struct is internal while
instname is external.
typedef struct {
__int32_t internal;
char *external;
} mmv_instances2_t;
It is worth mentioning that if the indom of the instance is not
found it returns an error.
Добавить метки (Add labels)
int mmv_stats_add_registry_label(mmv_registry_t *registry,
const char *name, const char
*value,
mmv_value_type_t type, int
optional);
int mmv_stats_add_indom_label(mmv_registry_t *registry, int
serial,
const char *name, const char
*value,
mmv_value_type_t type, int
optional);
int mmv_stats_add_metric_label(mmv_registry_t *registry, int
item,
const char *name, const char
*value,
mmv_value_type_t type, int
optional);
int mmv_stats_add_instance_label(mmv_registry_t *registry, int
serial,
int instid, const char *name,
const char *value,
mmv_value_type_t type, int
optional);
registry is the handle obtained from mmv_stats_registry. name and
value are the strings that will form the label.
type specifies the value type that can be: MMV_STRING_TYPE,
MMV_NUMBER_TYPE, MMV_BOOLEAN_TYPE, MMV_NULL_TYPE, MMV_ARRAY_TYPE
and MMV_MAP_TYPE.
At the moment there is a simple check of the correctness of the
value. After adding a label, it is called a function to verify
if it is correct.
Additionally, if optional is set, it is added the flag
PM_LABEL_OPTIONAL.
serial is the serial of the indom when adding an indom or
instance label. item is the metric identifier when adding a
metric label. Finally, when adding a registry label it is not
necessary to give the cluster id because it will be taken from
the internal registry struct already created.
mmv_stats_add_registry_label adds a PM_LABEL_CLUSTER.
mmv_stats_add_indom_label adds a PM_LABEL_INDOM.
mmv_stats_add_metric_label adds a PM_LABEL_ITEM.
mmv_stats_add_instance_label adds a PM_LABEL_INSTANCES.
Возвращаемое значение (Return value)
When adding metrics, indoms, instances and labels, if correct
returns 0
and if not it returns an errno code. The other functions return
the address
of the memory mapped region on success. On failure, NULL is
returned and
errno is set to a value suitable for decoding with strerror(3).
