panicparse
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
Parses panic stack traces, densifies and deduplicates goroutines with similar
|
|
stack traces. Helps debugging crashes and deadlocks in heavily parallelized
|
|
process.

Features
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
* >50% more compact output than original stack dump yet more readable.
|
|
* Exported symbols are bold, private symbols are darker.
|
|
* Stdlib is green, main is yellow, rest is red.
|
|
* Deduplicates redundant goroutine stacks. Useful for large server crashes.
|
|
* Arguments as pointer IDs instead of raw pointer values.
|
|
* Pushes stdlib-only stacks at the bottom to help focus on important code.
|
|
* Usable as a library!

|
|
* Warning: please pin the version (e.g. vendor it). Breaking changes are
|
|
not planned but may happen.
|
|
* Parses the source files if available to augment the output.
|
|
* Works on Windows.

Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
### Piping a stack trace from another process
|
|
|
|
#### TL;DR
|
|
|
|
* Ubuntu (bash v4 or zsh): `|&`
|
|
* OSX, [install bash 4+](README.md#updating-bash-on-osx), then: `|&`
|
|
* Windows _or_ OSX with stock bash v3: `2>&1 |`
|
|
* [Fish](http://fishshell.com/) shell: `^|`
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Longer version
|
|
|
|
`pp` streams its stdin to stdout as long as it doesn't detect any panic.
|
|
`panic()` and Go's native deadlock detector [print to
|
|
stderr](https://golang.org/src/runtime/panic1.go) via the native [`print()`
|
|
function](https://golang.org/pkg/builtin/#print).
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Bash v4** or **zsh**: `|&` tells the shell to redirect stderr to stdout,
|
|
it's an alias for `2>&1 |` ([bash
|
|
v4](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#Pipelines),
|
|
[zsh](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Shell-Grammar.html#Simple-Commands-_0026-Pipelines)):
|
|
|
|
go test -v |&pp
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Windows or OSX native bash** [(which is
|
|
3.2.57)](http://meta.ath0.com/2012/02/05/apples-great-gpl-purge/): They don't
|
|
have this shortcut, so use the long form:
|
|
|
|
go test -v 2>&1 | pp
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Fish**: It uses [^ for stderr
|
|
redirection](http://fishshell.com/docs/current/tutorial.html#tut_pipes_and_redirections)
|
|
so the shortcut is `^|`:
|
|
|
|
go test -v ^|pp
|
|
|
|
|
|
**PowerShell**: [It has broken `2>&1` redirection](https://connect.microsoft.com/PowerShell/feedback/details/765551/in-powershell-v3-you-cant-redirect-stderr-to-stdout-without-generating-error-records). The workaround is to shell out to cmd.exe. :(
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Investigate deadlock
|
|
|
|
On POSIX, use `Ctrl-\` to send SIGQUIT to your process, `pp` will ignore
|
|
the signal and will parse the stack trace.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Parsing from a file
|
|
|
|
To dump to a file then parse, pass the file path of a stack trace
|
|
|
|
go test 2> stack.txt
|
|
pp stack.txt
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tips
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
### GOTRACEBACK
|
|
|
|
Starting with Go 1.6, [`GOTRACEBACK`](https://golang.org/pkg/runtime/) defaults
|
|
to `single` instead of `all` / `1` that was used in 1.5 and before. To get all
|
|
goroutines trace and not just the crashing one, set the environment variable:
|
|
|
|
export GOTRACEBACK=all
|
|
|
|
or `set GOTRACEBACK=all` on Windows. Probably worth to put it in your `.bashrc`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Updating bash on OSX
|
|
|
|
Install bash v4+ on OSX via [homebrew](http://brew.sh) or
|
|
[macports](https://www.macports.org/). Your future self will appreciate having
|
|
done that.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### If you have `/usr/bin/pp` installed
|
|
|
|
You may have the Perl PAR Packager installed. Use long name `panicparse` then;
|
|
|
|
go get github.com/maruel/panicparse
|
