PHP 中使用 opentelemetry-auto-laravel 进行链路追踪时间片段不连续的问题

这闹腾的 bug

先上正菜

  • PHP项目上了opentelemetry的时候发现有部分片段时间不连续

    });

    return true;
}

案例代码

  • 自定义一个类
<?php

namespace App\Service\Tracing;

use OpenTelemetry\API\Globals;
use OpenTelemetry\API\Trace\SpanInterface;
use OpenTelemetry\API\Trace\TracerInterface;

class Tracer
{
    protected TracerInterface $tracer;
    protected ?SpanInterface $lastSpan = null;
    protected ?SpanInterface $rootSpan = null;
    /**
     * @var array Span
     */
    protected array $spanMap = [];

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->tracer = Globals::tracerProvider()
            ->getTracer('io.opentelemetry.contrib.php.laravel');
    }

    /**
     * 请查看 AppServiceProvider 注册为 scoped, 适用于 Octane
     * @return Tracer
     */
    public static function getInstance(): Tracer
    {
        return app(Tracer::class);
    }

    public function startRootSpan($name): void
    {
        $span = $this->startSpan($name);
        $this->rootSpan = $span;
    }

    public function startAndEndLastSpan($name): SpanInterface
    {
        $this->endLastSpan();
        return $this->startSpan($name);
    }

    public function startSpan($name): SpanInterface
    {
        $span = $this->tracer->spanBuilder($name)->startSpan();
        $this->spanMap[$name] = $span;
        $this->lastSpan = $span;
        return $span;
    }

    public function endRootSpan(): void
    {
        $this->endSpan($this->rootSpan);
    }

    /**
     * @return void 方便的 end 上一个 span
     */
    public function endLastSpan(): void
    {
        $this->endSpan($this->lastSpan);
    }

    public function endSpan(?SpanInterface $span): void
    {
        if (is_null($span)) {
            return;
        }

        $span->end();
    }
}

  • Tracer类注册到服务提供者app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php
<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use App\Utils\Tracing\Tracer;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * Register any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function register()
    {
        // 整个生命周期只注册一次
        $this->app->scoped(Tracer::class, function () {
            return new Tracer();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Bootstrap any application services.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        //
    }
}
  • 在控制器使用
<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Service\Tracing;

class IndexAlbumsController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        $tracer = Tracer::getInstance();
        // 步骤0
        $tracer->startRootSpan('xxxx');
        
        // 步骤1
        $tracer->startSpan('s1');
        // 业务代码xxx
        // 结束步骤1, 并开启步骤2
        $tracer->startAndEndLastSpan('s2');
        // 业务代码xxx
        // 结束步骤2
        $tracer->endLastSpan();
        
        // 结束 root
        $tracer->endRootSpan();
    }
}

问题

  • 代码很简单, 就追踪几个函数, 看耗时, 不出意外的话, 意外还是发生了
  • 线上偶尔会在$span->end()的时候耗时几百毫秒, 百思不得其解

查看end()的实现

  • 实际上会走到BatchSpanProcessor类的onEnd方法
class BatchSpanProcessor {

    public function onEnd(ReadableSpanInterface $span): void
    {
        if ($this->closed) {
            return;
        }
        if (!$span->getContext()->isSampled()) {
            return;
        }

        if ($this->queueSize === $this->maxQueueSize) {
            $this->dropped++;

            return;
        }

        $this->queueSize++;
        $this->batch[] = $span->toSpanData();
        $this->nextScheduledRun ??= $this->clock->now() + $this->scheduledDelayNanos;

        if (count($this->batch) === $this->maxExportBatchSize) {
            $this->enqueueBatch();
        }
        if ($this->autoFlush) {
            // flush 
            $this->flush();
        }
    }
}
  • 所以罪魁祸首flush方法, 这里会根据配置到达一定数量, 一定时间把链路追踪上报
  • 由于PHP常规运行没有多线程, flush上报链路追踪的时候会阻塞当前进程

解决办法

  1. flush 方法上多线程, 短期内不可能, 估计百分之九十九的项目都是没用多线程的
  2. https://opentelemetry.io/docs/collector/使用Opentelemetry collector代理
  3. 装作没看到!!!
