Example scripts for User-space, Statically Defined Tracing (USDT)
This directory contains scripts showcasing User-space, Statically Defined Tracing (USDT) support for Bitcoin Core on Linux using. For more information on USDT support in Bitcoin Core see the USDT documentation.
Examples for the two main eBPF front-ends, bpftrace and
BPF Compiler Collection (BCC), with support for USDT, are listed. BCC is used
for complex tools and daemons and bpftrace is preferred for one-liners and
shorter scripts.
To develop and run bpftrace and BCC scripts you need to install the corresponding packages. See installing bpftrace and installing BCC for more information. For development there exist a bpftrace Reference Guide, a BCC Reference Guide, and a bcc Python Developer Tutorial.
Examples
The bpftrace examples contain a relative path to the bitcoind binary. By
default, the scripts should be run from the repository-root and assume a
self-compiled bitcoind binary. The paths in the examples can be changed, for
example, to point to release builds if needed. See the
Bitcoin Core USDT documentation on how to list available tracepoints in your
bitcoind binary.
WARNING: eBPF programs require root privileges to be loaded into a Linux kernel VM. This means the bpftrace and BCC examples must be executed with root privileges. Make sure to carefully review any scripts that you run with root privileges first!
log_p2p_traffic.bt
A bpftrace script logging information about inbound and outbound P2P network
messages. Based on the net:inbound_message and net:outbound_message
tracepoints.
By default, bpftrace limits strings to 64 bytes due to the limited stack size
in the eBPF VM. For example, Tor v3 addresses exceed the string size limit which
results in the port being cut off during logging. The string size limit can be
increased with the BPFTRACE_STRLEN environment variable (BPFTRACE_STRLEN=70
works fine).
$ bpftrace contrib/tracing/log_p2p_traffic.bt

p2p_monitor.py
A BCC Python script using curses for an interactive P2P message monitor. Based
on the net:inbound_message and net:outbound_message tracepoints.
Inbound and outbound traffic is listed for each peer together with information about the connection. Peers can be selected individually to view recent P2P messages.
$ python3 contrib/tracing/p2p_monitor.py ./src/bitcoind
Lists selectable peers and traffic and connection information.

log_raw_p2p_msgs.py
A BCC Python script showcasing eBPF and USDT limitations when passing data
larger than about 32kb. Based on the net:inbound_message and
net:outbound_message tracepoints.
Bitcoin P2P messages can be larger than 32kb (e.g. tx, block, ...). The
eBPF VM's stack is limited to 512 bytes, and we can't allocate more than about
32kb for a P2P message in the eBPF VM. The message data is cut off when the
message is larger than MAX_MSG_DATA_LENGTH (see script). This can be detected
in user-space by comparing the data length to the message length variable. The
message is cut off when the data length is smaller than the message length.
A warning is included with the printed message data.
Data is submitted to user-space (i.e. to this script) via a ring buffer. The
throughput of the ring buffer is limited. Each p2p_message is about 32kb in
size. In- or outbound messages submitted to the ring buffer in rapid
succession fill the ring buffer faster than it can be read. Some messages are
lost. BCC prints: Possibly lost 2 samples on lost messages.
$ python3 contrib/tracing/log_raw_p2p_msgs.py ./src/bitcoind

Messages larger that about 32kb will be cut off!

connectblock_benchmark.bt
A bpftrace script to benchmark the ConnectBlock() function during, for
example, a blockchain re-index. Based on the validation:block_connected USDT
tracepoint.
The script takes three positional arguments. The first two arguments, the start,
and end height indicate between which blocks the benchmark should be run. The
third acts as a duration threshold in milliseconds. When the ConnectBlock()
function takes longer than the threshold, information about the block, is
printed. For more details, see the header comment in the script.
The following command can be used to benchmark, for example, ConnectBlock()
between height 20000 and 38000 on SigNet while logging all blocks that take
longer than 25ms to connect.
$ bpftrace contrib/tracing/connectblock_benchmark.bt 20000 38000 25
In a different terminal, starting Bitcoin Core in SigNet mode and with re-indexing enabled.
$ ./src/bitcoind -signet -reindex
This produces the following output.

log_utxos.bt
A bpftrace script to log information about the coins that are added, spent, or

$ bpftrace contrib/tracing/log_utxos.bt
This should produce an output similar to the following. If you see bpftrace
warnings like Lost 24 events, the eBPF perf ring-buffer is filled faster
than it is being read. You can increase the ring-buffer size by setting the
ENV variable BPFTRACE_PERF_RB_PAGES (default 64) at a cost of higher
memory usage. See the bpftrace reference guide for more information.
