Resumo(s): | Programmers and support engineers typically rely on log data to narrow down the root cause of unexpected behaviors in dependable distributed systems. Unfortunately, the inherently distributed nature and complexity of such distributed executions often leads to multiple independent logs, scattered across different physical machines, with thousands or millions entries poorly correlated in terms of event causality. This renders log-based debugging a tedious, time-consuming, and potentially inconclusive task.We present Falcon, a tool aimed at making log-based analysis of distributed systems practical and effective. Falcon's modular architecture, designed as an extensible pipeline, allows it to seamlessly combine several distinct logging sources and generate a coherent space-time diagram of distributed executions. To preserve event causality, even in the presence of logs collected from independent unsynchronized machines, Falcon introduces a novel happens-before symbolic formulation and relies on an off-the-shelf constraint solver to obtain a coherent event schedule.Our case study with the popular distributed coordination service Apache Zookeeper shows that Falcon eases the log-based analysis of complex distributed protocols and is helpful in bridging the gap between protocol design and implementation. |
