Debugging .NET Core on Linux with LLDB

.NET Core is designed to be cross-platform, modular and optimized for cloud

here is a cheat sheet of the different tools on Windows and Linux:

  Linux Windows
CPU sampling perf, BCC ETW
Dynamic tracing perf, BCC X
Static tracing LTTng ETW
Dump generation gcore, ProcDump ProcDump, WER
Dump anlysis LLDB VS, WinDBG

LLDB

The LLDB debugger is conceptually similar to the native Windows debugging tools in that it is a low level and command live driven debugger.

It is available for a number of different *NIX systems as well as MacOS.

Part of the reason the .NET Core team chose the LLDB debugger was for its extensibility points that allowed them to create the SOS plugin which can be used to debug .NET core applications.

  • The SOS LLDB plugin contains the same commands that we have grown accustomed to in the Windows world. Therefore, LLDB is the ideal debugger for .NET Core on Linux.
  • For .NET Core version 1.x and 2.0.x, libsosplugin.so is built for and will only work with version 3.6 of LLDB. For .NET Core 2.1, the plugin is built for 3.9 LLDB and will work with 3.8 and 3.9 LLDB.

download and install correct version of LLDB into the box.

Install instruction for LLDB.

SOS plugin for LLDB

The SOS Debugging Extension helps you debug managed programs in debugger by providing information about the internal Common Language Runtime (CLR) environment.

The .NET Core team also bring this available on Linux for LLDB.

  • On Linux, the SOS plugin shipped with .NET Core SDK, you can find it here: /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/2.0.0/libsosplugin.so

Debug It

Attach to a process

Find the pid of the dotnet application, then launch LLDB and type: process attach -p <PID> to attach the debugger to your dotnet core application.

  • Once LLDB is attached, the output will show all the frames from the currently selected thread, but it only will show the native frames.

ProcDump for Linux

Microsoft has shipped ProcDump to Linux which provides a convenient way for Linux developers to create core dumps of their application based on performance triggers.Eventually, the ProcDump will call gcore on Linux to generate the core dump.

It is convenient not only because it will help you to install and setup gcore automatically, but also helps to monitor the application and capture core dump automatically based on specific trigger conditions.

Install instruction for ProcDump of Linux.

Loading SOS plugin

At the LLDB prompt, type: plugin load libsosplugin.so.

Then type: clrstack. You will see clearly what managed code is being executed for that thread.

Capture Core Dumps by ProcDump for Linux

As with any debug session that involves production running applications, it is not a first choice to live attaching to the process.

  • Similar to Windows, Linux utilizes a approach to postmortem debugging with core dumps (memory dump).

In order to enable core dumps generation, type: ulimit -c unlimited in terminal. This command sets the generated maximum core file size to unlimited in current terminal session.

To generate core dump using ProcDump, type: sudo procdump [options] -p <PID of the app>. You can use the options for ProcDump as below:

Usage: procdump [OPTIONS...] TARGET
OPTIONS
-C CPU threshold at which to create a dump of the process from 0 to 100 * nCPU
-c CPU threshold below which to create a dump of the process from 0 to 100 * nCPU
-M Memory commit threshold in MB at which to create a dump
-m Trigger when memory commit drops below specified MB value.
-n Number of dumps to write before exiting
-s Consecutive seconds before dump is written (default is 10)
TARGET must be exactly one of these:
-p pid of the process

  

Open the dump in LLDB

Launch LLDB and type in prompt: target create -c <dump file path>

Load SOS plugin type any command you need for the memory analysis. The available command are list below:

Type "soshelp <functionname>" for detailed info on that function.

Profiling the .NET Core Application on Linux

To gather detailed information about a performance issue of .NET Core Application on Linux, you can follow the simple instructions here:

To gather detailed information about a performance issue of .NET Core Application on Linux, you can follow the simple instructions here:

    1. Download perfcollect script provided by .NET Core team.
      curl -OL http://aka.ms/perfcollect
    2. Make the script executable.
      chmod +x perfcollect
    3. Install prerequisites (perf and LTTng):
      sudo ./perfcollect install
    4. Setup the application shell and enables tracing configuration:
      export COMPlus_PerfMapEnabled=1
      export COMPlus_EnableEventLog=1
    5. Run collection:
      ./perfcollect collect tracefile
    6. Copy the tracefile.zip file to a Windows machine.
    7. Download PerfView on Windows box.
    8. Open the trace in PerfView, then you can explore the CPU sampling data. Flame Graph is also available here.
      Using BPF Complier Collection (BCC) is another good choice for performance analysis as BPF is more flexible and efficiency. Please follow the tutorial of BCC.

Analyzing .NET Core memory on Linux with LLDB

背景介绍:

.NET Windows project running on Linux in Kubernetes.It’s not as crazy as it sounds.

  • We already migrated from .NET Framework to .NET Core,
  • I fixed whatever was incompatible with Linux, tweaked here and there so it can run in k8s and it really does now. In theory.
  • In practice, there’re still occasional * exceptions (zero segfaults, however) and most of troubleshooting experience I had on Windows is useless here on Linux. 
    • For instance, very quickly we noticed that memory consumption of our executable is higher than we’d expect. Physical memory varied between 300 MiB and 2 GiB and virtual memory was tens and tens of gigabytes.
    • I know in production we could use much higher than that, but here, in container on Linux, is that OK? How do I even analyze that?

目的:

several things about debugging on Linux

示例介绍:

create Ubuntu 16.04 VM with the help of Vagrant and VirtualBox,

  • It’s 3 GiB RAM VM with .NET Core 2.0.2 SDK, vim, gdb and lldb-3.6 installed (more on them later).
  • vagrant up will bring that VM to life and we can get into it with vagrant ssh command.
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.box = "ubuntu/xenial64" config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
vb.memory = "3072"
end config.vm.provision "shell", inline: <<-SHELL
# Install .net core SDK
curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | gpg --dearmor > microsoft.gpg
mv microsoft.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/microsoft.gpg
sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/microsoft-ubuntu-xenial-prod xenial main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotnetdev.list'
apt-get update && apt-get install -y dotnet-sdk-2.0.2 # Dev tools
apt-get install -y vim gdb lldb-3.6
SHELL
end

  

put the project in it and we can experiment in there.

  • any hello-world .NET Core app would do, but ideally it should have something in the memory to analyze.
  • It also shouldn’t exit immediately – we need some time to take a process dump.
  • dotnet new console -o memApp creates almost sufficient project template, which I improved very slightly by adding a static array full of dummy strings
  • build the app, launch it and begin with experiments:
using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text; namespace memApp
{
class Program
{
static Random random = new Random((int)DateTime.Now.Ticks); static char RandomChar()
=> Convert.ToChar(random.Next(65, 90)); static string RandomString(int length)
=> String.Concat(Enumerable.Range(0, length).Select(_ => RandomChar())); static void Main(string[] args)
{
var dummyStringsCollection = Enumerable.Range(0, 10000)
.Select(_ => "Random string: " + RandomString(10000)).ToArray();
Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
dotnet build

#Build succeeded.

# 0 Error(s)

#Time Elapsed 00:00:02.06
dotnet bin/Debug/netcoreapp2.0/memApp.dll
# Hello World!

  

Creating a core dump

  • First, let’s check what’s initial memory stats look like:  
    • That’s actually quite a lot: ~2.6 GiB of virtual memory and ~238 MiB of physical.
    • Even though virtual memory doesn’t mean we’re ever going to use all of it, process dump (‘core dump’ in linux terminology) will take at least the same amount of space
ps u
#USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
#ubuntu 4058 7.9 7.9 2752512 243908 pts/0 SLl+ 04:10 0:06 dotnet bin/Debug/netcoreapp2.0/memApp.dll
#...
  • The simplest way to create a core dump is to use gcore utility
    • It comes along with gdb debugger and that’s the only reason I had to install it.
    • Using gcore, however, in most cases requires elevated permissions. 
      • On local Ubuntu I was able to get away with sudo gcore, but inside of Kubernetes pod even that wasn’t enough and I had to go to underlying node and add the following option to sysctl.conf:
echo "kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=0" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf # Append config line
sudo sysctl -p # Apply changes
      • But here in Ubuntu VM sudo gcore works just fine and I can create a core dump just by providing target process id (PID):
sudo gcore 4058
# ...
# Saved corefile core.4058
  • dump file size is the same as the amount of virtual memory: 
    • This actually was a problem for us in Kubernetes, with .NET garbage collector switched to server mode and the server itself having 208 GiB of RAM.With such specs and GC settings virtual memory and core dump file were just above 49 GiB.
    • Disabling gcServer option in .NET, however, reduced default address space and therefore core file size down to more manageable 5 GiB.
      • But I digressed. We have a dump file to analyze.
ls -lh
#total 2.6G
#-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.6G Dec 12 04:25 core.4058

  

Debugger and .NET support

We can use either gdb or lldb debuggers to works with core files, but only lldb has .NET debugging support via SOS plugin called libsosplugin.so.

  • Moreover, the plugin itself is built against specific version of lldb, so if you don’t want to recompile CoreCLR and libsosplugin.so locally (not that hard), the safest lldb version to use at the moment is 3.6.
  • As a side note, I was wondering what SOS exactly means and found this wonderful SO answer.
    • Apparently, SOS has nothing to do with ABBA or save-our-souls Morse code distress signal.It means “Son of Strike”. Who is Strike, you might ask? Strike was a name of debugger for .NET 1.0, codename Lightning.
      • Strike of Lightning, you know.And SOS is his proud descendant.
  • OK, we have a debugger, an executable and a core dump. Where do we get SOS plugin?
    • Fortunately, it comes along with .NET Core SDK which I already installed:
find /usr -name libsosplugin.so
#/usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/2.0.0/libsosplugin.so
    • Finally, we can start lldb, point it to dotnet executable, which started our application, it’s core dump and then load the plugin:
$ lldb-3.6 `which dotnet` -c core.4058
# (lldb) target create "/usr/bin/dotnet" --core "core.4058"
# Core file '/home/ubuntu/core.4058' (x86_64) was loaded.
# (lldb) plugin load /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/2.0.0/libsosplugin.so
# (lldb)

Analyzing managed memory

SOS plugin added a set of commands which are aware of .NET managed nature,

  • so we can not just see what bits and bytes are stored at given location, but what is their .NET type (e.g. System.String).

soshelp command prints out all .NET commands it added to lldb

soshelp commandname will explain how to use a particular one. Well, except when it won’t.

  • For instance, DumpHeap command, which is basically the entry point for memory analysis, has no help at all.
  • Fortunately for me, I was able to find the missing info next to the plugin’s source code.
(lldb) soshelp

#Object Inspection Examining code and stacks
#----------------------------- -----------------------------
#DumpObj (dumpobj) Threads (clrthreads)
#DumpArray ThreadState
#..
(lldb) soshelp DumpHeap
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(lldb)

  

Memory summary

We have a working debugger, we have a DumpHeap command – let’s take a look at managed memory statistics:

(lldb) sos DumpHeap -stat
#Statistics:
# MT Count TotalSize Class Name
#00007f6d32992aa8 1 24 UNKNOWN
#00007f6d329911d8 1 24 UNKNOWN
#....
#00007f6d323defd8 4 17528 System.Object[]
#00007f6d323e08a8 25 40644 System.Int32[]
#00007f6d323e0168 29 82664 System.String[]
#00007f6d323e3440 335 952398 System.Char[]
#000000000223b860 10092 6083604 Free
#00007f6d3242b460 150846 204845172 System.String
#Total 161886 objects
(lldb)

Not surprisingly, System.String objects use the most of the memory.

Btw, if you summarize total sizes of all managed objects (like I did), resulting memory count comes very close to physical memory count reported by ps u. 202 MiB of managed objects vs 238 MiB of physical memory.

The delta, I suppose, goes to the code itself and executing environment.  

Memory details

But we can go further. We know that System.String uses the most of the memory. Can we take a closer look at those strings?

(lldb) sos DumpHeap -type System.String
# Address MT Size
#00007f6d0bfff3f0 00007f6d3242b460 26
#00007f6d0bfff4c0 00007f6d3242b460 42
#...
#00007f6d0c099ab0 00007f6d3242b460 20056
#00007f6d0c09e920 00007f6d3242b460 20056
#...
#00007f6d323e0168 29 82664 System.String[]
#00007f6d3242b460 150846 204845172 System.String
#Total 150895 objects

-type works as a mask, so the output also contains System.String[] and a few Dictionaries.

Also strings vary in size, whereas I’m actually interested in large ones, at least 1000 bytes:  

sos DumpHeap -type System.String -min 1000
# ...
# 00007f6d0e8810f0 00007f6d3242b460 20056
# 00007f6d0e885f60 00007f6d3242b460 20056
# 00007f6d0e88add0 00007f6d3242b460 20056
# ...

Having the list of suspicious objects we can drill down even more: examine the objects one by one.

DumpObj

DumpObj can look into the managed object details at given memory address.

We have a whole first column of addresses and I just picked one of them:

(lldb) sos DumpObj 00007f6d0e8810f0
#Name: System.String
#MethodTable: 00007f6d3242b460
#EEClass: 00007f6d31c49eb8
#Size: 20056(0x4e58) bytes
#File: /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/2.0.0/System.Private.CoreLib.dll
#String:
#Fields:
# MT Field Offset Type VT Attr Value Name
#00007f6d3244b020 40001c9 8 System.Int32 1 instance 10015 m_stringLength
#00007f6d3242f420 40001ca c System.Char 1 instance 52 m_firstChar
#00007f6d3242b460 40001cb 38 System.String 0 shared static Empty
# >> Domain:Value 00000000022ab050:NotInit <<

It’s actually pretty cool. We immediately can see the type name (System.String) and what fields it is made of.

I also noticed that for small strings we’d see the value right away (line 7), but not for the large ones.

I was puzzled at first about how to get the value for those.

  • There’s m_firstChar field, but is it like a linked list or what?
  • Where’s a pointer to the next item?

Only after checking out the source code for System.String I realized that m_firstChar can be used as a pointer itself and the whole string is stored somewhere as continuous block of memory.

This means I can use lldb’s native memory read command to get the whole string back!

For that I just need to take object’s address (00007f6d0e8810f0), add m_firstChar‘s field offset (c, third column in fields table) and then do something like this:

(lldb) memory read 00007f6d0e8810f0+0xc
#0x7f6d0e8810fc: 52 00 61 00 6e 00 64 00 6f 00 6d 00 20 00 73 00 R.a.n.d.o.m. .s.
#0x7f6d0e88110c: 74 00 72 00 69 00 6e 00 67 00 3a 00 20 00 43 00 t.r.i.n.g.:. .C.

Does it look familiar?

“R.a.n.d.o.m. .s.t.r.i.n.g.”. C# char defaults to UTF16 encoding and therefore it takes two bytes.

Even though one of them is always zero for ASCII characters.

We also can experiment with memory read formatting, but even with default settings we can get the idea what’s inside.

(lldb) memory read 00007f6d0e8810f0+0xc -f s -c 13
#0x7f6d0e8810fc: "R"
#0x7f6d0e8810fe: "a"
#0x7f6d0e881100: "n"
#0x7f6d0e881102: "d"
#0x7f6d0e881104: "o"
#0x7f6d0e881106: "m"
#0x7f6d0e881108: " "
#0x7f6d0e88110a: "s"
#0x7f6d0e88110c: "t"
#0x7f6d0e88110e: "r"
#0x7f6d0e881110: "i"
#0x7f6d0e881112: "n"
#0x7f6d0e881114: "g"

  

Conclusion

started to think what’s happening that deep under the hood.

  • What’s inside of a System.String?
  • What fields does have?
  • How those fields are aligned in the memory? The first field has an offset 8.
  • What’s in those eight bytes? A type id? .NET strings are interned, does it mean that m_firstChar of identical strings will point to the same block of memory? Can I check that?

how debugging .NET code with lldb looks like.

  • Many years ago I used to debug a C++ pet project with gdb, so I kind of know the feeling.
  • But .NET applications compile Just-In-Time, so it’s interesting to see how SOS plugin deals with that.

Analyzing a .NET Core Core Dump on Linux

背景:

had to open a core dump of a .NET Core application on Linux

Configure Linux to Generate Core Dumps

Before you begin, you need to configure your Linux box to generate core dumps in the first place.

  • A lot of distros will have something preconfigured, but the simplest approach is to just put a file name in the /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern file:
    # echo core > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
  • Additionally, there’s a system limit maximum size for the generated core file.
    • ulimit -c unlimited removes that limit. Now, whenever your .NET Core process (or any other process) crashes, you’ll get a core file generated in the same directory.
    • By the way, .NET Core on Linux x86_64 reserves a pretty gigantic address space, so expect your core files to be pretty big.But compression helps — I had a 6.5GB core dump compress into a 59MB gzip file.

Installing LLDB

To open the core dump, you’ll need LLDB built with the same architecture as your CoreCLR.

$ find /usr/share/dotnet -name libsosplugin.so
/usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/1.1.0/libsosplugin.so $ ldd $(find /usr/share/dotnet -name libsosplugin.so) | grep lldb
liblldb-3.5.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblldb-3.5.so.1 (0x00007f0a6b2d8000)

Seeing that LLDB 3.5 was required, I installed it with sudo apt install lldb-3.5, but YMMV on other distros, of course.

Opening The Core File And Loading SOS

Now you’re ready to open the core file in LLDB.

  • If you’re doing this on a different box, you’ll need the same version of .NET Core installed — that’s where the dotnet binary, SOS itself, and the DAC (debugger data access component) are coming from.
  • could also copy the /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/nnnn directory over, of course.$ lldb $(which dotnet) --core ./core
  • Once inside LLDB, you’ll need to load the SOS plugin. It’s the one we found earlier:
    (lldb) plugin load /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/1.1.1/libsosplugin.so
  • if everything went well, the SOS plugin needs the DAC (libmscordaccore.so), so you’ll need to tell it where to look:
    (lldb) setclrpath /usr/share/dotnet/shared/Microsoft.NETCore.App/1.1.1

With that, SOS should be loaded and ready for use.

Running Analysis

You’d think you can just start running the SOS commands you know and love, but there’s one final hurdle.

Here’s what happened when I opened a core file generated from a crash, and tried to get the exception information (note that you should prefix SOS commands with ‘sos’):

(lldb) sos PrintException
The current thread is unmanaged

Considering that the process crashed as a result of a managed exception.

Looking at the docs, it looks like SOS and LLDB have trouble communicating around the current thread’s identity.  

So first, let’s find the thread that encountered an exception:

(lldb) sos Threads
……
XXXX    8 5a15 00007F5AC006A3F0    21020 Preemptive  0x7f5ad594dd10:0x7f5ad594ece8     0000000000C195C0 0     Ukn System.IO.FileNotFoundException 00007f5ad593fa80 (nested exceptions)

Thread #8 looks suspicious, what with the System.IO.FileNotFoundException in the Exception column. Now, let’s see all the LLDB threads:

(lldb) thread list
Process 0 stopped
* thread #1: tid = 0, 0x00007f5c5d83b7ef libc.so.6`__GI_raise(sig=2) + 159 at raise.c:58, name = 'dotnet', stop reason = signal SIGABRT

Here, it looks like thread 1 is the one with the exception being raised.

So we have to map the OS thread ID from the first command, to the LLDB thread id from the second command:

(lldb) setsostid 5a15 1
Mapped sos OS tid 0x5a15 to lldb thread index 1

And now, we’re ready to roll:

(lldb) sos PrintException
Exception object: 00007f5ad593fa80
Exception type:   System.IO.FileNotFoundException
Message:          Could not load the specified file.
InnerException:   <none>

This gives us the exception information and the thread’s current stack, if we want it.

We could similarly inspect other threads by mapping the OS thread id to the LLDB thread id,

but for a thread that didn’t have an exception, where do you get that clue that connects the OS thread id to the debugger thread ID?

Well, it seems that GDB is using the same numbering as LLDB, but in GDB you can actually see the LWP id (on Linux, GDB LWP = kernel pid = thread) using ‘info threads’:

$ gdb $(which dotnet) --core ./core
... (gdb) info threads
  Id   Target Id         Frame

... more output snipped for brevity ...

So, for example, suppose we wanted to know what managed thread #6 (OS thread id 0x580d from the ‘sos Threads’ output above) was doing when the dump file was generated.

0x580d = 22541, which is thread #12 in the output above.

Going back to LLDB (note the hex notation for both thread ids):

(lldb) setsostid 580d c
Mapped sos OS tid 0x580d to lldb thread index 12 (lldb) clrstack
OS Thread Id: 0x580d (12)

Other SOS commands that don’t depend on thread context (e.g. listing assemblies, heap objects, finalization queues and so on) do not require any fiddling with thread ids, and you can just run them directly.

Summary

So, what we had to do in order to open a .NET Core core dump from a Linux system was:

  • Set up the Linux system to generate core dumps on crash
  • Copy or install the right version of .NET Core on the analysis machine
  • Install the version of LLDB matching your .NET Core’s SOS plugin
  • Load the SOS plugin in LLDB and tell it where to find the DAC
  • Set the debugger thread id for SOS thread-sensitive commands to work
  • Run sos PrintException or any other commands to analyze the crash
