What happened?

Description

When installing ebpf, the collector kernel pod, although running, emits the following error:

Steps to Reproduce

helm repo add open-telemetry https://open-telemetry.github.io/opentelemetry-helm-charts
helm repo update open-telemetry
helm install my-opentelemetry-ebpf -f ./otel-ebpf-values.yaml open-telemetry/opentelemetry-ebpf
check logs of kernel collector pod

Expected Result

transmission of metrics

Actual Result

Errors in data collection.

eBPF Collector version

Failed to compile eBPF code for the Linux distro 'debian' running kernel version 6.5.0-1018-aws.

troubleshoot item bpf_compilation_failed (os=Linux,flavor=debian,headers_src=pre_installed,kernel=6.5.0-1018-aws): ProbeHandler couldn't load BPFModule: Success

This usually means that kernel headers weren't installed correctly.

Please reach out to support and include this log in its entirety so we can diagnose and fix
the problem.


In the meantime, please install kernel headers manually on each host before running
the Kernel Collector.

To manually install kernel headers, follow the instructions below:

  - for Debian/Ubuntu based distros, run:

      sudo apt-get install --yes "linux-headers-`uname -r`"

  - for RedHat based distros like CentOS and Amazon Linux, run:

      sudo yum install -y "kernel-devel-`uname -r`"

The first set of errors (include/linux/bpf.h), at first glance, could be due to some internal inconsistency in the kernel headers. For example take the first error:

The error location seems to be here.
the first #include in that file is to uapi bpf.h
uapi bpf.h has a (non-forward) definition

so there should be a full definition -- curious.

@ccoqueiro would the package repository used to install the packages contain recent versions of the headers? Is the kernel on that machine a recent release in the distro?

yonch · 2024-04-25T23:39:07Z

The two errors in bpf_tcp_send_recv.h:

v6.5 definition of msghdr
msg->msg_iter is a struct iov_iter, defined here
Some digging in git history shows commit de4f5fed3f231

-               const struct iovec *iov;
+               /* use iter_iov() to get the current vec */
+               const struct iovec *__iov;

Seems to have originated in v6.4:

$ git describe --contains de4f5fed3f231
v6.4-rc1~214^2~10

So we'd want to figure out what Iter_iov() does and handle the modified structure with an #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(6, 4, 0) (edit: the < case would contain old code, and the #else for the new)

Hello @yonch , I understand that yes, I'm using the chart opentelemetry ebpf package -> https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-helm-charts/tree/main/charts/opentelemetry-ebpf

yonch · 2024-04-29T15:11:26Z

@ccoqueiro I'm wondering if the header package might somehow be old/broken, is one of these true in your case:

The package repo for the distro (used by apt) is not standard
The kernel header package was installed a long time ago and not updated
The machine is running a bleeding edge kernel for the distro (so the header packaging might be work-in-progress)

and if the answer is no, a couple of things to try:

updating the packages on the system apt-get upgrade, see if that fixes the headers
running on a machine that does not have headers (e.g., without first running sudo apt-get install --yes linux-headers-$(uname -r), so letting the network collector fetch its own headers

note that these will probably only fix the first set of errors. The second set requires modifications in the eBPF code. Are you in a position to pursue those, or should we search for community contributors?

ccoqueiro · 2024-04-30T12:19:33Z

Hello @yonch

Answering questions:

The package repo for the distro (used by apt) is not standard. The distro I used is an ubuntu 22.04 provided by AWS, I understand it's standard.
The kernel header package was installed a long time ago and not up. The kernel header package was not installed, I installed it as a prerequisite for the installation of otel ebpf.
The machine is running a bleeding edge kernel for the distro (so the header packaging might be work-in-progress)
.I can't answer this question, how could we check this?

updating the packages on the system apt-get upgrade, see if that fixes the headers. Done but not fixed the headers.
running on a machine that does not have headers (e.g., without first running sudo apt-get install --yes linux-headers-$(uname -r), so letting the network collector fetch its own headers. I ran this command, installing the package reader before installing the ebpf otel, but it didn't help, it kept giving the same error.

The second set requires modifications in the eBPF code. Are you in a position to pursue those, or should we search for community contributors? To be quite honest with you, I have no idea how I would do this.

Got it @ccoqueiro, I marked with "help wanted" and will direct contributors here if asked. I'm sorry I don't have anything more immediate for you. If you find anyone who would like to tackle, happy to work with them!
