statistics gathering. +The framework is built around the +.Dq statsblob , +an object embedded within a contiguous memory allocation that is mostly opaque +to consumers and stores all required state. +A +.Dq statsblob +object can itself be embedded within other objects either directly or indirectly +using a pointer. +.Pp +Objects or subsystems for which statistics are to be gathered are initialized +from a template +.Dq statsblob , +which acts as the blueprint for an arbitrary set of +Variables Of Interest (VOIs) and their associated statistics. +Each template defines a schema plus associated metadata, which are kept separate +to minimize the memory footprint of blobs. +.Pp +Data gathering hook functions added at appropriate locations within the code +base of interest feed VOI data into the framework for processing. +.Pp +Each +.Dq statsblob , +consists of a +.Vt struct statsblob +header and opaque internal blob structure per the following diagram: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +--------------------------------------------------------- +| struct | uint8_t | +| statsblob | opaque[] | +--------------------------------------------------------- +.Ed +.Pp +The publicly visible 8-byte header is defined as: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +struct statsblob { + uint8_t abi; + uint8_t endian; + uint16_t flags; + uint16_t maxsz; + uint16_t cursz; + uint8_t opaque[]; +}; +.Ed +.Pp +.Va abi +specifies which API version the blob's +.Va opaque +internals conform to +.Pq Dv STATS_ABI_V1 is the only version currently defined . +.Va endian +specifies the endianness of the blob's fields +.Po +.Dv SB_LE +for little endian, +.Dv SB_BE +for big endian, or +.Dv SB_UE +for unknown endianness +.Pc . +.Va cursz +specifies the size of the blob, while +.Va maxsz +specifies the size of the underlying memory allocation in which the +blob is embedded. +Both +.Va cursz +and +.Va maxsz +default to units of bytes, unless a flag is set in +.Va flags +that dictates otherwise. +.Pp +Templates are constructed by associating arbitrary VOI IDs with a set of +statistics, where each statistic is specified using a +.Vt struct voistatspec +per the definition below: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +struct voistatspec { + vss_hlpr_fn hlpr; + struct vss_hlpr_info *hlprinfo; + struct voistatdata *iv; + size_t vsdsz; + uint32_t flags; + enum vsd_dtype vs_dtype : 8; + enum voi_stype stype : 8; +}; +.Ed +.Pp +It is generally expected that consumers will not work with +.Vt struct voistatspec +directly, and instead use the +.Fn STATS_VSS_* +helper macros. +.Pp +The +.Nm +framework offers the following statistics for association with VOIs: +.Bl -tag -width ".Dv VS_STYPE_TDGST" +.It Dv VS_STYPE_SUM +The sum of VOI values. +.It Dv VS_STYPE_MAX +The maximum VOI value. +.It Dv VS_STYPE_MIN +The minimum VOI value. +.It Dv VS_STYPE_HIST +A static bucket histogram of VOI values, including a count of +.Dq out-of-band/bucket +values which did not match any bucket. +Histograms can be specified as +.Dq Em C Ns ontinuous Em R Ns ange +.Pq CRHIST , +.Dq Em D Ns iscrete Em R Ns ange +.Pq DRHIST +or +.Dq Em D Ns iscrete Em V Ns alue +.Pq DVHIST , +with 32 or 64 bit bucket counters, depending on the VOI semantics. +.It Dv VS_STYPE_TDGST +A dynamic bucket histogram of VOI values based on the t-digest method +.Po refer to the t-digest paper in the +.Sx SEE ALSO +section below +.Pc . +.El +.Pp +A +.Dq visitor software design pattern Ns +-like scheme is employed to facilitate iterating over a blob's data without +concern for the blob's structure. +The data provided to visitor callback functions is encapsulated in +.Vt struct sb_visit +per the definition below: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +struct sb_visit { + struct voistatdata *vs_data; + uint32_t tplhash; + uint32_t flags; + int16_t voi_id; + int16_t vs_dsz; + enum vsd_dtype voi_dtype : 8; + enum vsd_dtype vs_dtype : 8; + int8_t vs_stype; + uint16_t vs_errs; +}; +.Ed +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_tpl_sample_rates +and +.Fn stats_tpl_sample_rollthedice +functions utilize +.Vt struct stats_tpl_sample_rate +to encapsulate per-template sample rate information per the definition below: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +struct stats_tpl_sample_rate { + int32_t tpl_slot_id; + uint32_t tpl_sample_pct; +}; +.Ed +.Pp +The +.Va tpl_slot_id +member holds the template's slot ID obtained from +.Fn stats_tpl_alloc +or +.Fn stats_tpl_fetch_allocid . +The +.Va tpl_sample_pct +member holds the template's sample rate as an integer percentage in the range +[0,100]. +.Pp +The +.Vt stats_tpl_sr_cb_t +conformant function pointer that is required as the +.Fa arg1 +of +.Fn stats_tpl_sample_rates +is defined as: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +enum stats_tpl_sr_cb_action { + TPL_SR_UNLOCKED_GET, + TPL_SR_RLOCKED_GET, + TPL_SR_RUNLOCK, + TPL_SR_PUT +}; +typedef int (*stats_tpl_sr_cb_t)(enum stats_tpl_sr_cb_action action, + struct stats_tpl_sample_rate **rates, int *nrates, void *ctx); +.Ed +.Pp +It is required that a conformant function: +.Bl -dash +.It +Return an appropriate +.Xr errno 2 +on error, otherwise 0. +.It +When called with +.Qq action == TPL_SR_*_GET , +return the subsystem's rates list ptr and count, locked or unlocked as +requested. +.It +When called with +.Qq action == TPL_SR_RUNLOCK , +unlock the subsystem's rates list ptr and count. +Pair with a prior +.Qq action == TPL_SR_RLOCKED_GET +call. +.It +When called with +.Qq action == TPL_SR_PUT , +update the subsystem's rates list ptr and count to the sysctl processed values +and return the inactive list details in +.Fa rates +and +.Fa nrates +for garbage collection by +.Fn stats_tpl_sample_rates . +.El +.Pp +Where templates need to be referenced via textual means, for example via a MIB +variable, the following string based template spec formats can be used: +.Bl -enum +.It +.Qq <tplname> Ns +:<tplhash> +.Ns , for example +.Qq TCP_DEFAULT Ns +:1731235399 +.It +.Qq <tplname> +.Ns , for example +.Qq TCP_DEFAULT +.It +:<tplhash> +.Ns , for example +:1731235399 +.El +.Pp +The first form is the normative spec format generated by the framework, while +the second and third forms are convenience formats primarily for user input. +The use of inverted commas around the template name is optional. +.Ss MIB Variables +The in-kernel +.Nm +framework exposes the following framework-specific variables in the +.Va kern.stats +branch of the +.Xr sysctl 3 +MIB. +.Bl -tag -width "templates" +.It templates +Read-only CSV list of registered templates in normative template spec form. +.El +.Ss Template Management Functions +The +.Fn stats_tpl_alloc +function allocates a new template with the specified unique name and returns its +runtime-stable template slot ID for use with other API functions. +The +.Fa flags +argument is currently unused. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_tpl_fetch_allocid +function returns the runtime-stable template slot ID of any registered template +matching the specified name and hash. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_tpl_fetch +function returns the pointer to the registered template object at the specified +template slot ID. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_tpl_id2name +function returns the name of the registered template object at the specified +template slot ID. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_tpl_sample_rates +function provides a generic handler for template sample rates management and +reporting via +.Xr sysctl 3 +MIB variables. +Subsystems can use this function to create a subsystem-specific +.Xr SYSCTL_PROC 9 +MIB variable that manages and reports subsystem-specific template sampling +rates. +Subsystems must supply a +.Vt stats_tpl_sr_cb_t +conformant function pointer as the sysctl's +.Fa arg1 , +which is a callback used to interact with the subsystem's stats template sample +rates list. +Subsystems can optionally specify the sysctl's +.Fa arg2 +as non-zero, which causes a zero-initialized allocation of arg2-sized contextual +memory to be heap-allocated and passed in to all subsystem callbacks made during +the operation of +.Fn stats_tpl_sample_rates . +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_tpl_sample_rollthedice +function makes a weighted random template selection from the supplied array of +template sampling rates. +The cumulative percentage of all sampling rates should not exceed 100. +If no seed is supplied, a PRNG is used to generate a true random number so that +every selection is independent. +If a seed is supplied, selection will be made randomly across different seeds, but +deterministically given the same seed. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_tpl_add_voistats +function is used to add a VOI and associated set of statistics to the registered +template object at the specified template slot ID. +The set of statistics is passed as an array of +.Vt struct voistatspec +which can be initialized using the +.Fn STATS_VSS_* +helper macros or manually for non-standard use cases. +For static +.Fa vss +arrays, the +.Fa nvss +count of array elements can be determined by passing +.Fa vss +to the +.Fn NVSS +macro. +The +.Dv SB_VOI_RELUPDATE +flag can be passed to configure the VOI for use with +.Fn stats_voi_update_rel_<dtype> , +which entails maintaining an extra 8 bytes of state in the blob at each update. +.Ss Data Gathering Functions +The +.Fn stats_voi_update_abs_<dtype> +and +.Fn stats_voi_update_rel_<dtype> +functions both update all the statistics associated with the VOI identified by +.Fa voi_id . +The +.Dq abs +call uses +.Fa voival +as an absolute value, whereas the +.Dq rel +call uses +.Fa voival +as a value relative to that of the previous update function call, by adding it +to the previous value and using the result for the update. +Relative updates are only possible for VOIs that were added to the template with +the +.Dv SB_VOI_RELUPDATE +flag specified to +.Fn stats_tpl_add_voistats . +.Ss Utility Functions +The +.Fn stats_blob_alloc +function allocates and initializes a new blob based on the registered template +object at the specified template slot ID. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_blob_init +function initializes a new blob in an existing memory allocation based on the +registered template object at the specified template slot ID. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_blob_clone +function duplicates the +.Fa src +blob into +.Fa dst , +leaving only the +.Va maxsz +field of +.Fa dst +untouched. +The +.Dv SB_CLONE_ALLOCDST +flag can be passed to instruct the function to allocate a new blob of +appropriate size into which to clone +.Fa src , +storing the new pointer in +.Fa *dst . +The +.Dv SB_CLONE_USRDSTNOFAULT +or +.Dv SB_CLONE_USRDST +flags can be set to respectively signal that +.Xr copyout_nofault 9 +or +.Xr copyout 9 +should be used because +.Fa *dst +is a user space address. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_blob_snapshot +function calls +.Fn stats_blob_clone +to obtain a copy of +.Fa src +and then performs any additional functions required to produce a coherent +blob snapshot. +The flags interpreted by +.Fn stats_blob_clone +also apply to +.Fn stats_blob_snapshot . +Additionally, the +.Dv SB_CLONE_RSTSRC +flag can be used to effect a reset of the +.Fa src +blob's statistics after a snapshot is successfully taken. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_blob_destroy +function destroys a blob previously created with +.Fn stats_blob_alloc , +.Fn stats_blob_clone +or +.Fn stats_blob_snapshot . +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_blob_visit +function allows the caller to iterate over the contents of a blob. +The callback function +.Fa func +is called for every VOI and statistic in the blob, passing a +.Vt struct sb_visit +and the user context argument +.Fa usrctx +to the callback function. +The +.Fa sbv +passed to the callback function may have one or more of the following flags set +in the +.Va flags +struct member to provide useful metadata about the iteration: +.Dv SB_IT_FIRST_CB , +.Dv SB_IT_LAST_CB , +.Dv SB_IT_FIRST_VOI , +.Dv SB_IT_LAST_VOI , +.Dv SB_IT_FIRST_VOISTAT , +.Dv SB_IT_LAST_VOISTAT , +.Dv SB_IT_NULLVOI +and +.Dv SB_IT_NULLVOISTAT . +Returning a non-zero value from the callback function terminates the iteration. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_blob_tostr +renders a string representation of a blob into the +.Xr sbuf 9 +.Fa buf . +Currently supported render formats are +.Dv SB_STRFMT_FREEFORM +and +.Dv SB_STRFMT_JSON . +The +.Dv SB_TOSTR_OBJDUMP +flag can be passed to render version specific opaque implementation detail for +debugging or string-to-binary blob reconstruction purposes. +The +.Dv SB_TOSTR_META +flag can be passed to render template metadata into the string representation, +using the blob's template hash to lookup the corresponding template. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_voistatdata_tostr +renders a string representation of an individual statistic's data into the +.Xr sbuf 9 +.Fa buf . +The same render formats supported by the +.Fn stats_blob_tostr +function can be specified, and the +.Fa objdump +boolean has the same meaning as the +.Dv SB_TOSTR_OBJDUMP +flag. +.Pp +The +.Fn stats_voistat_fetch_dptr +function returns an internal blob pointer to the specified +.Fa stype +statistic data for the VOI +.Fa voi_id . +The +.Fn stats_voistat_fetch_<dtype> +functions are convenience wrappers around +.Fn stats_voistat_fetch_dptr +to perform the extraction for simple data types. +.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES +The following notes apply to STATS_ABI_V1 format statsblobs. +.Ss Space-Time Complexity +Blobs are laid out as three distinct memory regions following the header: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +------------------------------------------------------ +| struct | struct | struct | struct | +| statsblobv1 | voi [] | voistat [] | voistatdata [] | +------------------------------------------------------ +.Ed +.Pp +Blobs store VOI and statistic blob state +.Po +8 bytes for +.Vt struct voi +and 8 bytes for +.Vt struct voistat +respectively +.Pc +in sparse arrays, using the +.Fa voi_id +and +.Vt enum voi_stype +as array indices. +This allows O(1) access to any voi/voistat pair in the blob, at the expense of +8 bytes of wasted memory per vacant slot for templates which do not specify +contiguously numbered VOIs and/or statistic types. +Data storage for statistics is only allocated for non-vacant slot pairs. +.Pp +To provide a concrete example, a blob with the following specification: +.Bl -dash +.It +Two VOIs; ID 0 and 2; added to the template in that order +.It +VOI 0 is of data type +.Vt int64_t , +is configured with +.Dv SB_VOI_RELUPDATE +to enable support for relative updates using +.Fn stats_voi_update_rel_<dtype> , +and has a +.Dv VS_STYPE_MIN +statistic associated with it. +.It +VOI 2 is of data type +.Vt uint32_t +with +.Dv VS_STYPE_SUM +and +.Dv VS_STYPE_MAX +statistics associated with it. +.El +.Pp +would have the following memory layout: +.Bd -literal +-------------------------------------- +| header | struct statsblobv1, 32 bytes +|------------------------------------| +| voi[0] | struct voi, 8 bytes +| voi[1] (vacant) | struct voi, 8 bytes +| voi[2] | struct voi, 8 bytes +|------------------------------------| +| voi[2]voistat[VOISTATE] (vacant) | struct voistat, 8 bytes +| voi[2]voistat[SUM] | struct voistat, 8 bytes +| voi[2]voistat[MAX]

+-------------------------------------- + TOTAL 136 bytes +.Ed +.Pp +When rendered to string format using +.Fn stats_blob_tostr , +the +.Dv SB_STRFMT_FREEFORM +.Fa fmt +and the +.Dv SB_TOSTR_OBJDUMP

+present in the rendered output above indicates a manual line break inserted to +keep the man page within 80 columns and is not part of the actual output. +.Ss Locking +The +.Nm +framework does not provide any concurrency protection at the individual blob +level, instead requiring that consumers guarantee mutual exclusion when calling +API functions that reference a non-template blob. +.Pp +The list of templates is protected with a +.Xr rwlock 9 +in-kernel, and +.Xr pthread 3 +rw lock in user space to support concurrency between template management and +blob initialization operations. +.Sh
