Preface
 
    Sometimes we need to know the details of a program(porcess) when it is running even it's on the edge of crach.There's a lot of tools can be used to do these kind of job such as truss,strace,ltrace,pstack,gstack,gdb,etc.Truss and strace is focus on system call and signal generation whereas pstack,gstack,gdb are relevant with function call.Actually,pstack is a soft link of gstack,and gstack is a shell packaging script of gdb.
 
Introduce
 
    pt-pmp is also relies on linux gdb.It's a tool which aggregate gdb statck traces for a specified program especially for MySQL.pt-pmp can create and summarize full stack traces of linux process by which we can diagnose what the process is waiting for.It is mostly used in performance tuning scenarios.
 
Procedure
 
Usage
 pt-pmp [OPTIONS] [FILES]
Parameters(few parameters in this tool)
 --binary //Specify which binary program to trace(default 'mysqld').

 --pid //Specify a process id to trace.

 --iterations //Specify trace times(default "1").

 --interval //Number of seconds every time(default "0").

 --lines //Specify the number of functions to trace(default "0" means infinite).

 --save-samples //output aggregation into a file for later analysis.
Exapmle
 
Trace gdb stack of mysqld into a file(start mysqld and then execute pt-pmp).

Demonstrate of relevant conceptions.
 .What's gdb?

 gdb is tool of linux,a debugger of GNU project.It can help you to see what's going on inside the program while it executes.For example,the usual case is the program running slowly or almost to be crashed.

 .What can gdb do?

 It can catch details in the act belowl:

 ).Start the program and specify anything the might affect its behavior.

 ).Let the program stop on specific conditions.

 ).Check the details when the program stops.

 ).Change things in the program and try to correct effect of potential problems.

 .What's LWP?

 LWP is abbreviation of Light Weight Process.

 Process:You'll find a process in background after you've executed a linux command(which can be observed by "ps -ef").

 Thread:It's nothing but a flow of execution of the linux process.

 Light Weight Process:It's almost the same with "thread" but a term at kernal level.

 Here's some detail of it:

 What are Linux Processes, Threads, Light Weight Processes, and Process State

 https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2013/11/linux-process-and-threads/
Something about output file.
 .The second column in the file shows the detail of memory address with hex.

 .At the very beginning of the file in Thread (LWP ),it shows the detail of how MySQL process works.

 "Mysqld_socket_listener::listen_for_connection_event" is a MySQL function defined in source code file "socket_connection.cc".This is a clue which can help you to findout where to servay the details if something happened and stucked here.

 .At every bottom of each thread(except thread ),you can see the same contents below:

 "#. 0x... clone () from /lib64/libc.so.6" //clone() is a function to create a new thread.

 "#. 0x... start_thread () from /lib64/libpthread.so.0" //start_thread() is a function to start a poxis thread.
Summary
  • pt-pmp is read-only tool and it depends on the linux gdb to collect stack traces.
  • when pt-pmp works,it will attach gdb to the program you specified,what will probably freeze the program for a while.
  • It's not recommend to run the tool on a very busy product system because of the potential freezing period and resource consumption.
  • As a matter of fact,you can also do the stack tracing stuff by pstack tool but that's not today's motif.
