bpftrace PMDA (bpftrace PMDA)

Имя (Name)

pmdabpftrace - bpftrace PMDA


Описание (Description)

pmdabpftrace is a Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which exports metrics from bpftrace(8) scripts.


Конфигурация (Configuration)

pmdabpftrace reads an optional ini-style configuration file:

$PCP_PMDAS_DIR/bpftrace/bpftrace.conf

This file may contain [bpftrace] and [dynamic_scripts] sections. If you enable the dynamic scripts functionality, please refer to https://pcp.io/docs/lab.auth.html on how to setup authentication. This is highly recommended, as otherwise anyone could run any bpftrace(8) script as root.

[bpftrace] section specifies values for the following settings (their default values are shown in parenthesis):

bpftrace_path (bpftrace) Path to the bpftrace(8) executable.

script_expiry_time (60) Unnamed scripts are removed after this period of time (in seconds) in case there has been no requests for their values.

max_throughput (2097152) Maximum throughput of bpftrace scripts in bytes.

[dynamic_scripts] section specifies values for the following settings (their default values are shown in parenthesis):

enabled (false) A boolean value to specify whether script should be started on demand, by executing pmStore (3) bpftrace.control.register. This feature needs to be enabled for the PCP bpftrace datasource in grafana-pcp.

auth_enabled (true) A boolean value to specify whether authentication is required or not. Please see the note above on authentication setup.

allowed_users (root) A comma-separated list of usernames which are allowed to register bpftrace(8) scripts.


Установка (Installation)

To install, the following must be done as root:

# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/bpftrace # ./Install

To uninstall, the following must be done as root:

# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/bpftrace # ./Remove

pmdabpftrace 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.

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).
