Описание (Description)
pmdaFetch is a generic callback used by a PMDA(3) to process a
fetch request from pmcd(1). The request from pmcd is initiated
by a client calling pmFetch(3).
This is one of the few generic callbacks in libpcp_pmda (see
PMDA(3)) that is incomplete, requiring a further
pmdaFetchCallBack method of its own. The additional callback
should be registered using pmdaSetFetchCallBack and the
pmdaFetchCallBack method has the following prototype:
int func(pmdaMetric *mdesc, unsigned int inst, pmAtomValue *avp)
pmdaFetch will allocate and resize the resp result structure, to
store values for the numpmid metrics listed in pmidlist.
For each instance listed in the profile (see pmdaProfile(3)) of
each metric listed in pmidlist, the pmdaFetchCallBack method is
called to fill the pmAtomValue structure identified by avp with a
value for a specific metric-instance pair identified by the
metric descriptor mdesc and the instance inst. This value is
then copied into the pmResult structure.
The pmdaFetchCallBack method should return a value less than zero
for an error, and the most likely cases would be PM_ERR_PMID if
the metric identified by mdesc is not known to the method, or
PM_ERR_INST if the method believes the instance inst is not known
for the metric identified by mdesc.
The success error codes depend on the version of PMDA_INTERFACE
the PMDA is using.
If the PMDA is using PMDA_INTERFACE_2 then on success the
pmdaFetchCallBack method should return 0.
If the PMDA is using PMDA_INTERFACE_3 or PMDA_INTERFACE_4 then on
success the pmdaFetchCallBack method should return 1 if a value
is returned via avp, else 0 if no values are currently available
for the requested metric-instance pair although mdesc and inst
both seem reasonable.
If the PMDA is using PMDA_INTERFACE_5 or later then on success
the pmdaFetchCallBack method should return PMDA_FETCH_STATIC (1)
if the value returned via avp can be ignored by pmdaFetch once it
has been copied into the pmResult structure, else
PMDA_FETCH_DYNAMIC (2) if the value returned via avp uses the
either the vp or cp fields of the pmAtomValue and the associated
value (buffer) was allocated using one of malloc(3), calloc(3),
realloc(3), strdup(3) etc. and pmdaFetch should release the
memory by calling free(3) once a new buffer has been allocated
and the value copied, else PMDA_FETCH_NOVALUES (0) if no values
are currently available for the requested metric-instance pair
although mdesc and inst both seem reasonable.
If the pmdaFetchCallBack method returns a value for an instance
of a metric of type PM_TYPE_STRING or PM_TYPE_AGGREGATE some
special care is needed – the method should either use a static
buffer, set avp->cp or avp->vp to the address of the buffer and
return PMDA_FETCH_STATIC, or use a dynamically allocated buffer,
keep a static reference to the buffer's address, return
PMDA_FETCH_STATIC and free(3) or realloc(3) or reuse the buffer
the next time the pmdaFetchCallBack method is called, else use a
dynamically allocated buffer and return PMDA_FETCH_DYNAMIC.
Примеры (Examples)
The following code fragments are for a hypothetical PMDA has with
metrics (A, B, C and D) and an instance domain (X) with two
instances (X1 and X2). The instance domain and metrics
description tables (see pmdaInit(3)) could be defined as:
static pmdaInstid _X[] = {
{ 0, "X1" }, { 1, "X2" }
};
static pmdaIndom indomtab[] = {
#define X_INDOM 0
{ 0, 2, _X },
};
static pmdaMetric metrictab[] = {
/* A */
{ (void *)0,
{ PMDA_PMID(0,0), PM_TYPE_32, PM_INDOM_NULL,
PM_SEM_INSTANT, {0,0,0,0,0,0} }, },
/* B */
{ (void *)0,
{ PMDA_PMID(0,1), PM_TYPE_DOUBLE, X_INDOM,
PM_SEM_INSTANT, {0,1,0,0,PM_TIME_SEC,0} }, },
/* C */
{ (void *)0,
{ PMDA_PMID(0,2), PM_TYPE_STRING, PM_INDOM_NULL,
PM_SEM_INSTANT, {0,0,0,0,0,0} }, },
/* D */
{ (void *)0,
{ PMDA_PMID(0,3), PM_TYPE_STRING, PM_INDOM_NULL,
PM_SEM_INSTANT, {0,0,0,0,0,0} }, },
};
A pmdaFetchCallBack method to be called from pmdaFetch could be
defined as:
int
myFetchCallBack(pmdaMetric *mdesc, unsigned int inst, pmAtomValue *avp)
{
static char sbuf[20]; // reuse this buffer
char *dbuf; // malloc'd
switch (pmID_item(mdesc->m_desc.pmid)) {
case 0:
/* assign some value for metric A */;
avp->l = ...
break;
case 1:
switch (inst) {
case 0:
/* assign a value for metric B, instance X1 */;
avp->d = ...
break;
case 1:
/* assign a value for metric B, instance X2 */;
avp->d = ...
break;
default:
return PM_ERR_INST;
}
case 2:
/* place value for metric C in dbuf[] */
memcpy(dbuf, ...);
avp->cp = dbuf;
break;
case 3:
avp->cp = (char *)malloc(somesize);
/* place value in avp->cp */
pmsprintf(avp->cp, somesize, ...);
return PMDA_FETCH_DYNAMIC;
default:
return PM_ERR_PMID;
}
return PMDA_FETCH_STATIC;
}
Предостережение (Caveat)
The PMDA must be using PMDA_INTERFACE_2 or later, as specified in
the call to pmdaDSO(3) or pmdaDaemon(3).
Диагностика (Diagnostic)
The following error messages indicate that there is discrepancy
between the namespace, pmdaMetric and pmdaIndom tables passed to
pmdaInit(3), and the registered fetch callback:
pmdaFetch: Requested metric metric is not defined
A requested metric metric is not listed in the pmdaMetric
table. The namespace for this PMDA(3) may contain
additional metrics.
pmdaFetch: PMID pmid not handled by fetch callback
The pmdaFetchCallBack method has returned PM_ERR_PMID.
This indicates that a metric may be listed in the
pmdaMetric table, but is not supported by the callback
method.
pmdaFetch: Instance inst of PMID pmid not handled by fetch
callback
The pmdaFetchCallBack method has returned PM_ERR_INST.
This indicates that an instance of metric is listed in the
pmdaIndom table, but is not supported by the callback
method.
pmdaFetch: Fetch callback error:
The pmdaFetchCallBack method returned a result other than
PMDA_FETCH_NOVALUES, PMDA_FETCH_STATIC,
PMDA_FETCH_DYNAMIC, PM_ERR_PMID or PM_ERR_INST.
pmdaFetch: Descriptor type (type) for metric pmid is bad
The data type type specified for the metric pmid in the
pmdaMetric table is illegal.
pmdaFetch will return -errno if an error occurred while
allocating the pmResult structure or copying the value from the
pmAtomValue.
