# Delving into the unknown
|
|
|
|
This write-up summarises how to debug what appears to be a mischievous Lotus
|
|
instance during our Testground tests. It also goes enumerates which assets are
|
|
useful to report suspicious behaviours upstream, in a way that they are
|
|
actionable.
|
|
|
|
## Querying the Lotus RPC API
|
|
|
|
The `local:docker` and `cluster:k8s` map ports that you specify in the
|
|
composition.toml, so you can access them externally.
|
|
|
|
All our compositions should carry this fragment:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[global.run_config]
|
|
exposed_ports = ["6060", "1234", "2345"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This tells Testground to expose the following ports:
|
|
|
|
* `6060` => Go pprof.
|
|
* `1234` => Lotus full node RPC.
|
|
* `2345` => Lotus storage miner RPC.
|
|
|
|
### local:docker
|
|
|
|
1. Install the `lotus` binary on your host.
|
|
2. Find the container that you want to connect to in `docker ps`.
|
|
* Note that our _container names_ are slightly long, and they're the last
|
|
field on every line, so if your terminal is wrapping text, the port
|
|
numbers will end up ABOVE the friendly/recognizable container name (e.g. `tg-lotus-soup-deals-e2e-acfc60bc1727-miners-1`).
|
|
* The testground output displays the _container ID_ inside coloured angle
|
|
brackets, so if you spot something spurious in a particular node, you can
|
|
hone in on that one, e.g. `<< 54dd5ad916b2 >>`.
|
|
|
|
```

3. Take note of the port mapping. Imagine in the output above, we want to query
|
|
`54dd5ad916b2`. We'd use `localhost:32788`, as it forwards to the container's
|
|
1234 port (Lotus Full Node RPC).
|
|
4. Run your Lotus CLI command setting the `FULLNODE_API_INFO` env variable,
|
|
which is a multiaddr:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ FULLNODE_API_INFO=":/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/$port/http" lotus chain list
|
|
[...]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### cluster:k8s
|
|
|
|
WIP @nonsense.
|
|
|
|
### Useful commands / checks
|
|
|
|
* **Making sure miners are on the same chain:** compare outputs of `lotus chain list`.
|
|
* **Checking deals:** `lotus client list-deals`.
|
|
* **Sector queries:** WIP @nonsense.

## Viewing logs of a particular container (local:docker)
|
|
|
|
This works for both started and stopped containers. Just get the container ID
|
|
(in double angle brackets in Testground output, on every log line), and do a:
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
$ docker logs $container_id
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Accessing the golang instrumentation
|
|
|
|
Testground exposes a pprof endpoint under local port 6060, which both
|
|
`local:docker` and `cluster:k8s` map.
|
|
|
|
For `local:docker`, see above to figure out which host port maps to the
|
|
container's 6060 port.
|
|
|
|
## Acquiring a goroutine dump
|
|
|
|
When things appear to be stuck, get a goroutine dump.
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
$ wget -o goroutine.out http://localhost:${pprof_port}/debug/pprof/goroutine?debug=2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can use whyrusleeping/stackparse to extract a summary:
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
$ go get https://github.com/whyrusleeping/stackparse
|
|
$ stackparse --summary goroutine.out
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Acquiring a CPU profile
|
|
|
|
When the CPU appears to be spiking/rallying, grab a CPU profile.
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
$ wget -o profile.out http://localhost:${pprof_port}/debug/pprof/profile
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Analyse it using `go tool pprof`. Usually, generating a `png` graph is useful:
|
|
|
|
```shell script
|
|
$ go tool pprof profile.out
|
|
File: testground
|
|

|
## Submitting actionable reports / findings
|
|
|
|
This is useful both internally (within the Oni team, so that peers can help) and
|
|
externally (when submitting a finding upstream).
|
|
|
|
We don't need to play the full bug-hunting game on Lotus, but it's tremendously
|
|
useful to provide the necessary data so that any reports are actionable.
|
|
|
|
These include:
|
|
|
|
* test outputs (use `testground collect`).
|
|
* stack traces that appear in logs (whether panics or not).
|
|
* output of relevant Lotus CLI commands.
|
|
* if this is some kind of blockage / deadlock, goroutine dumps.
|
|
* if this is a CPU hotspot, a CPU profile would be useful.
|
|
* if this is a memory issue, a heap dump would be useful.
