工具使用背景说明
上周我在 Postgres 的 WAL Sender 进程中寻找内存泄漏问题。我花了几天时间更加熟悉 Valgrind
和 gcc/clang sanitizers
,但最终对它们毫无用处。最后,我偶然发现了 bcc
工具集合中的 memleak
程序,它引导我找到了源代码。
由于我第一次弄清楚这一切有点困难,所以我想分享我经历的过程。处理一些人为的内存泄漏。
尽管这种情况发生在 Postgres 中,并且这篇文章介绍了 Postgres 中的漏洞以便我们进行调查,但这些技术非常有用。
具体来说,在本文结束时,我们将能够获得一个很好的堆栈跟踪,从而导致正在运行的程序发生泄漏,而无需对所需的程序进行任何修改。就像这样的:
135168 bytes in 1 allocations from stack0x0000ffff7fb7ede8 sysmalloc_mmap.isra.0+0x74 [libc.so.6]0x0000ffff7fb7fc40 sysmalloc+0x200 [libc.so.6]0x0000ffff7fb80fbc _int_malloc+0xdfc [libc.so.6]0x0000ffff7fb81c50 __malloc+0x22c [libc.so.6]0x0000fffffffff000 [unknown] [[uprobes]]0x0000000000927714 palloc+0x40 [postgres]0x00000000007df2f4 PostgresMain+0x1ac [postgres]0x0000000000755f34 report_fork_failure_to_client+0x0 [postgres]0x0000000000757e94 BackendStartup+0x1b8 [postgres]0x000000000075805c ServerLoop+0xfc [postgres]0x00000000007592f8 PostmasterMain+0xed4 [postgres]0x00000000006927d8 main+0x230 [postgres]0x0000ffff7fb109dc __libc_start_call_main+0x7c [libc.so.6]0x0000ffff7fb10ab0 __libc_start_main@GLIBC_2.17+0x9c [libc.so.6]0x00000000004912f0 _start+0x30 [postgres]
Valgrind
计算机科学专业的学生通常会学习 Valgrind 来调试程序中的内存泄漏。但 Valgrind 主要在程序结束时检查泄漏,而不是在程序期间。
例如,在这个简单的、有漏洞的 main.c
中:
#include "stdio.h"
#include "string.h"int main() {char* x = strdup("flubber");printf("%s\n", x);return 1;
}
我们可以使用 Valgrind 构建并运行,它会告诉我们有关泄漏的信息:
$ gcc main.c

We can add in the correct call to free(x)
:
#include "stdio.h"
#include "string.h"
#include "stdlib.h"int main() {char* x = strdup("flubber");printf("%s\n", x);free(x);return 1;
}
重建并再次使用 Valgrind 运行:
$ gcc main.c
$ valgrind --leak-check=full ./a.out

Valgrind 告诉我们确实没有泄漏。
Leaks in Arenas
但管理内存的方法有很多种。Postgres 代码通常不会直接调用 malloc。它调用 palloc
在 MemoryContext
中分配内存(在其他代码库中有时称为 arena)。MemoryContext
是一块空闲内存,palloc
从中获取内存。然后在某个时刻它会被一次性释放。
问题是在 MemoryContext 的生命周期内可能会发生泄漏。Valgrind 无法轻易告诉您这些泄露的情况。
Postgres 确实有一个有用的内置方法来转储内存上下文信息。例如,您可以将此行添加到任何函数,或者您可以从 gdb 执行此行:
MemoryContextStats(TopMemoryContext);
您将获得有关内存上下文和所有子内存上下文中的分配的信息,并将其写入 stderr。通过观察 MemoryContextStats
随着时间的推移打印的分配量的增加,并通过添加额外的内存上下文,您也许能够发现泄漏的位置。
但显式添加此调用或通过 gdb 添加此调用是相当手动的。如果有一些系统可以自动告诉我们内存分配的增长情况,那就方便多了。
让我们在 Postgres 中引入一个泄漏,看看我们能做些什么来发现它,重现一个我们不知道这个泄漏在哪里的情况。
Setup
首先获取 Postgres,签出版本 16.2 并构建它:
$ git clone https://github.com/postgres/postgres
$ cd postgres
$ git checkout REL_16_2
$ ./configure \CFLAGS="-ggdb -Og -g3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer -DUSE_VALGRIND" \--prefix=$(pwd)/build \--libdir=$(pwd)/build/lib \--enable-debug
$ make && make install
这些标志启用 Valgrind、启用调试模式并将构建设置为本地安装而不是全局安装。构建完成后,您可以创建一个 Postgres 数据库:
$ ./build/bin/initdb test-db
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "phil".
This user must also own the server process.The database cluster will be initialized with locale "en_US.UTF-8".
The default database encoding has accordingly been set to "UTF8".
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".Data page checksums are disabled.creating directory test-db ... ok
creating subdirectories ... ok
selecting dynamic shared memory implementation ... posix
selecting default max_connections ... 100
selecting default shared_buffers ... 128MB
selecting default time zone ... America/New_York
creating configuration files ... ok
running bootstrap script ... ok
performing post-bootstrap initialization ... ok
syncing data to disk ... okinitdb: warning: enabling "trust" authentication for local connections
initdb: hint: You can change this by editing pg_hba.conf or using the option -A, or --auth-local and --auth-host, the next time you run initdb.Success. You can now start the database server using:build/bin/pg_ctl -D test-db -l logfile start
然后在前台启动Postgres服务器:
$ ./build/bin/postgres --config-file=$(pwd)/test-db/postgresql.conf -D $(pwd)/test-db -k $(pwd)/test-db

2024-03-21 16:08:10.992 EDT [213083] LOG: database system is ready to accept connections
在第二个终端中,使用我们构建的 psql
副本连接到它:
./build/bin/psql -h localhost postgres
psql (16.2)
Type "help" for help.postgres=# select 1;?column?
----------1
(1 row)
现在我们来介绍一下泄漏。
Introducing a leak
src/backend/tcop/postgres.c
中的 PostgresMain()
函数有一个看起来很诱人的巨大循环。
4417 /*4418 * Non-error queries loop here.4419 */44204421 for (;;)4422 {4423 int firstchar;4424 StringInfoData input_message;44254426 #define CHUNKSIZE 40964427 char* waste = palloc(CHUNKSIZE);4428 printf("%d from %d", CHUNKSIZE, getpid());
让我们做出这样的改变:
diff --git a/src/backend/tcop/postgres.c b/src/backend/tcop/postgres.c
index 36cc99ec9c..28d08f3b11 100644
--- a/src/backend/tcop/postgres.c
+++ b/src/backend/tcop/postgres.c
@@ -4423,6 +4423,10 @@ PostgresMain(const char *dbname, const char *username)int firstchar;StringInfoData input_message;+ #define CHUNKSIZE 4096

+ printf("%d from %d\n", CHUNKSIZE, getpid());
+/** At top of loop, reset extended-query-message flag, so that any* errors encountered in "idle" state don't provoke skip.
由于我们在主 Postgres 循环中进行分配,因此每次单个连接的客户端在同一连接上发送一条语句时,我们都会分配一个新的 4KB 块。
由于我们使用 palloc
,所有内存都将在进程结束时以 Valgrind 认为有效的方式释放。但在单个客户端的生命周期内,处理连接的 Postgres 后端进程将随着客户端发送语句而不断增加内存。
这是内存泄漏!在极端情况下,如果客户端发送 100 万条语句,我们将在单个进程中分配 4KB * 1,000,000 = 4GB,并且在进程退出之前不会释放它。这是一个有点人为的案例,但这种情况确实发生了。
Set up Valgrind wrapper
让我们用 diff 来重建,记住 Valgrind 已经启用了。
$ make && make install
我们仍然需要将 Postgres 包装在 Valgrind 中。Tom Lane 在 Postgres 邮件列表上分享了他的包装脚本,我已经对其进行了改编。将其添加到 Postgres 存储库根目录中的 postgres.valgrind
中:
#!/usr/bin/env bashmkdir -p $HOME/valgrind-logsSCRIPT_DIR=$( cd -- "$( dirname -- "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" &> /dev/null && pwd )exec valgrind \--quiet \--show-leak-kinds=all \--track-origins=yes \--verbose \--suppressions=$(realpath $SCRIPT_DIR/../../)/src/tools/valgrind.supp \--time-stamp=yes --error-exitcode=128 --trace-children=yes \--log-file=$HOME/valgrind-logs/%p.log \$SCRIPT_DIR/postgres.orig "$@"
旁注:我也尝试使用 --leak-check=full
标志运行这个 Valgrind 脚本,但是当我有这个标志时,Postgres 总是会崩溃。我不知道为什么。
现在将当前的 Postgres 二进制文件重命名为 postgres.orig
,并将此脚本复制为新的 Postgres 二进制文件:
$ mv build/bin/postgres build/bin/postgres.orig
$ chmod +x postgres.valgrind
$ cp postgres.valgrind build/bin/postgres
启动服务器(无需重新initdb):
$ ./build/bin/postgres --config-file=$(pwd)/test-db/postgresql.conf -D $(pwd)/test-db -k $(pwd)/test-db
2024-03-21 16:18:28.233 EDT [216336] LOG: starting PostgreSQL 16.2 on aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 13.2.1 20231205 (Red Hat 13.2.1-6), 64-bit

2024-03-21 16:18:28.238 EDT [216336] LOG: database system is ready to accept connections
并像以前一样连接 psql
:
$ ./build/bin/psql -h localhost postgres
psql (16.2)
Type "help" for help.postgres=#
您将立即在 Postgres 服务器进程中看到一条日志行:
4096 from 216344
这就是我们引入的泄漏。如果我们在同一个 psql
进程中多次运行 SELECT 1
:
$ ./build/bin/psql -h localhost postgres
psql (16.2)
Type "help" for help.postgres=# select 1;?column?
----------1
(1 row)postgres=# select 1;?column?
----------1
(1 row)postgres=# select 1;?column?
----------1
(1 row)postgres=# select 1;?column?
----------1
(1 row)
我们将在服务器日志中看到相同数量的打印语句:

4096 from 216344

4096 from 216344

现在,如果我们在服务器进程上按 Ctrl-c,我们就可以查看 Valgrind 日志。

结果发现有410个字节肯定丢失了。无法解释每个客户端语句丢失的 4096*5 = 20,480 字节的累积损失。
而且,Valgrind 非常慢。Valgrind 手册说:
您的程序将比正常运行速度慢得多(例如 20 到 30 倍),并且使用更多内存。
我们必须尝试其他方法。
AddressSanitizer, LeakSanitizer
Valgrind 自 2002 年就已存在。但在 2013 年左右,Google 直接向 clang
和后来的 gcc
贡献了一些类似的功能。历史对我来说有点难以理解。AddressSanitizer 和 LeakSanitizer 可能曾经是独立的,但现在 AddressSanitizer 包含 LeakSanitizer。要获得sanitizer
,您只需使用 -fsanitize=address
编译代码即可。
让我们回到那个简单的、有漏洞的 main.c
程序:
$ cat main.c
#include "stdio.h"
#include "string.h"
#include "stdlib.h"int main() {char* x = strdup("flubber");printf("%s\n", x);return 1;
}
并使用 sanitizers
编译并运行:
$ gcc -fsanitize=address main.c
$ ./a.out
flubber
=================================================================

嘿,那太完美了。甚至比使用 Valgrind 和需要包装器更简单。泄漏检测直接内置于二进制文件中。
让我们用 Postgres 试试这个。
Postgres and AddressSanitizer
回到我们之前克隆的 Postgres git 存储库,请记住我们应用了这个 diff,它将在每个客户端语句中泄漏内存。

再次运行 make clean

好吧,它立即崩溃了!那很有意思。
但仔细观察,这些消息:
- 与我们引入的 4096 字节泄漏无关
- 看起来并不像泄漏那么重要,因为这些消息与程序初始化有关
由于它们不在循环中,显示的分配不会随着时间的推移而不断增长。所以没什么大不了的。
我们的泄漏在哪里?事实证明,AddressSanitizer/LeakSanitizer 的默认行为是在出现第一个错误时崩溃。在这种情况下,很可能许多生产系统后来才引入sanitizers
,这是没有用的。值得庆幸的是,sanitizers
有一些运行时选项,我们可以在环境变量中设置。
让我们设置环境变量 ASAN_OPTIONS="halt_on_error=false"
并重新运行 Postgres:
$ ASAN_OPTIONS="halt_on_error=false" ./build/bin/postgres --config-file=$(pwd)/test-db/postgresql.conf -D $(pwd)/test-db -k $(pwd)/test-db

好的! 它报告了泄漏,但仍在继续。让我们像以前一样通过连接 psql 来触发我们添加的泄漏。
$ ./build/bin/psql -h localhost postgres
psql (16.2)
Type "help" for help.postgres=# select 1;?column?

(1 row)postgres=# select 1;?column?

并退出连接。您可能会看到 psql 进程本身的泄漏报告。但我们正在寻找的泄漏是在 Postgres 后端进程中。

但我们的泄漏一无所知!我猜sanitizers
在这方面的工作原理与 Valgrind 类似,因为在进程结束时内存已被释放。只是之前没有。
此时我被难住了一段时间。
eBPF and bcc tools
我一直在阅读 Brendan Gregg 的《Systems Performance》一书,所以我开始想知道是否有一种方法可以使用 perf 或 bpf profile来记录正在运行的程序的内存使用情况并查看分配的来源。我使用 perf
来分析函数,但没有使用它来分析内存使用情况。我四处寻找如何用堆栈跟踪记录分配,但无法弄清楚。
因此,我查看了 bpf profile
,并注意到 Brendan Gregg 关于内存泄漏的页面。原来有一个可以直接识别内存泄漏的工具,memleak.py!
要使用它,请安装 bcc 工具套件(如果尚未安装)。不幸的是,每个发行版都会更改程序的名称,因此使用 find
可能是最简单的:
$ sudo find / -name '*memleak*'
/tmp/kheaders-6.5.6-300.fc39.aarch64/include/linux/kmemleak.h
/usr/share/man/man3/curs_memleaks.3x.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/bcc-memleak.8.gz
/usr/share/bcc/tools/doc/memleak_example.txt
/usr/share/bcc/tools/memleak
/usr/src/kernels/6.7.9-200.fc39.aarch64/include/linux/kmemleak.h
/usr/src/kernels/6.7.9-200.fc39.aarch64/samples/kmemleak
好的,它位于 /usr/share/bcc/tools/memleak
。
让我们在不使用sanitizers
的情况下重建 Postgres:
$ make clean
$ ./configure \CFLAGS="-ggdb -Og -g3 -fno-omit-frame-pointer" \--prefix=$(pwd)/build \--libdir=$(pwd)/build/lib \--enable-debug
$ make && make install
运行 Postgres 服务器:
$ ./build/bin/postgres --config-file=$(pwd)/test-db/postgresql.conf -D $(pwd)/test-db -k $(pwd)/test-db

2024-03-22 11:36:06.370 EDT [245850] LOG: database system is ready to accept connections
启动 psql 并获取正在服务器上处理我们请求的关联后端进程 PID:
$ ./build/bin/psql -h localhost postgres
psql (16.2)
Type "help" for help.postgres=# select pg_backend_pid();pg_backend_pid
----------------245858
(1 row)
打开一个新的终端会话,保持 psql
连接和 Postgres 服务器进程处于活动状态。并运行 memleak
程序:
$ sudo /usr/share/bcc/tools/memleak -p 245858
Attaching to pid 245858, Ctrl+C to quit.
[11:37:19] Top 10 stacks with outstanding allocations:
[11:37:24] Top 10 stacks with outstanding allocations:
它将开始每五秒报告一次泄漏。
让我们通过继续在 psql 会话中运行 SELECT 1
语句来更积极地触发泄漏:
$ ./build/bin/psql -h localhost postgres
psql (16.2)
Type "help" for help.postgres=# select pg_backend_pid();pg_backend_pid
----------------245858
(1 row)postgres=# select 1;?column?
----------1
(1 row)postgres=# select 1;?column?
----------1
(1 row)
运行此 SELECT 1
命令 20-30 次左右后,您应该看到 memleak 程序报告:
