Hi @Pavlusha311245

Thanks for the PR!

OK, first things first, this is going to need a commit message.

What is this commit introducing and why do we want/need it. In this case perhaps also some example output from the endpoint.

Could you move the GH issue number from the commit subject and put it at the bottom of the commit message (separated by a blank line) in the form

Closes: https://github.com/nginx/unit/issues/928

Cheers,

We don't tend to call malloc(3) directly. There is a nxt_malloc() you can use.

Also please don't cast the return, in C it simply isn't required and (in that past at least) can hide bugs.

load_time shows when last configured

Hmm, we probably need a better name for this. 'last_configured' or somesuch...

Although a 'start_time' would perhaps be useful.

We usually use nxt_mp_xxx api instead that you don't need to explicitly do memory free.
It will be released together with the mp destroy.

I'm afraid we can only point out that these are obvious first. Not sure if there is anyone else. And in our experience, it's common to rework patches after review.

How to use nxt_time_strint_t?

I'd suggest you look into the source code, it's too detailed, but I usually look at its usage by doing something like grep nxt_time_strint_t.

Hi @hongzhidao

Can a nxt_time_string_t store an arbitrary time?

It's not immediately obvious to me as the handler function seems to
basically take a struct timespec and struct tm representing the current
time.

@hongzhidao
Copy link
Contributor

Can a nxt_time_string_t store an arbitrary time?

Yes, I think so.

Here's an example from nxt_app_log.c:

static nxt_time_string_t  nxt_log_debug_time_cache = {
    (nxt_atomic_uint_t) -1,
    nxt_log_debug_time,
    "%4d/%02d/%02d %02d:%02d:%02d.%03d ",
    nxt_length("1970/09/28 12:00:00.000 "),
    NXT_THREAD_TIME_LOCAL,
    NXT_THREAD_TIME_MSEC,
};


static u_char *
nxt_log_debug_time(u_char *buf, nxt_realtime_t *now, struct tm *tm, size_t size,
    const char *format)
{
    return nxt_sprintf(buf, buf + size, format,
                       tm->tm_year + 1900, tm->tm_mon + 1, tm->tm_mday,
                       tm->tm_hour, tm->tm_min, tm->tm_sec,
                       now->nsec / 1000000);
}


demo()
{
   nxt_time_string_t  *time_cache;
   u_char             msg[NXT_MAX_ERROR_STR];

    thr = nxt_thread();

    time_cache = &nxt_log_debug_time_cache;

    p = nxt_thread_time_string(thr, time_cache, msg);
}

basically take a struct timespec and struct tm representing the current
time.

Correct. And nxt_thread_time_string() handles the cached current time well.
I think we can use it to represent string-time like the structure nxt_time_string_t naming.

The other example is related to http variable.

static nxt_int_t
nxt_http_var_time_local(nxt_task_t *task, nxt_str_t *str, void *ctx, void *data)
{
    nxt_http_request_t  *r;

    static nxt_time_string_t  date_cache = {
        (nxt_atomic_uint_t) -1,
        nxt_http_log_date,
        "%02d/%s/%4d:%02d:%02d:%02d %c%02d%02d",
        nxt_length("31/Dec/1986:19:40:00 +0300"),

        NXT_THREAD_TIME_SEC,

Hi @Pavlusha311245,
I'd suggest you change nxt_http_var_time_local() to meet the new string format and you can test it with access log.
After you check it works, you can do it in your way with nxt_time_string_t.

@ac000

ac000 commented Mar 20, 2024

@hongzhidao

It's a convoluted interface, but I see how it would work now.

However I think it could end up doing quite a lot of work at start up
that may never be used (e.g if /status is never looked at).

At least I think it might be best to simply store either a time_t or
struct timespec (depending on required resolution) and then use that
at the time of showing /status.

That's the bit I'm not sure about, if you can use an arbitrary struct timespec with nxt_time_string_t?

Failing that just use the standard libc API at the time of showing
/status

That way you do less work at start up (only storing a time_t or struct timepsec)

You also use a little less memory for each timestamp, 8 or 16 bytes vs
25 or whatever.

If so, I'm not sure that's a good idea, people may be relying on the
existing format...

Nope, it's for learning the usage of nxt_time_string_t for anyone who is not familiar with it. It's a test to do it easily.
It's ok for him to write a new one directly like this requirement.

Yes, but how do you get that into the nxt_time_string_t handler
function?

The handler function is called from the likes of
nxt_thread_time_string which uses the current time.

So I can't see how you could store a struct timespec and then at some
point later use it with nxt_time_string_t...

Looks like you'd need to create a new function for that case...

Sorry that I don't understand it.

Rather than storing a string representing the timestamp, you simply store
a time_t or struct timespec instead, saving memory and then you only
do the conversion into a string when required.

But I suppose it's a toss up between doing perhaps unnecessary work at
startup and how often /status is called...

Yes, you need a specific function, for example.

  1. Defined a variable of nxt_time_string_t.
static nxt_time_string_t  date_cache = {
        (nxt_atomic_uint_t) -1,
        nxt_http_log_date,
        "%02d/%s/%4d:%02d:%02d:%02d %c%02d%02d",
        nxt_length("31/Dec/1986:19:40:00 +0300"),
        NXT_THREAD_TIME_LOCAL,
        NXT_THREAD_TIME_SEC,
    };

Note that the function nxt_http_log_date should be implemented later, it's to format the string time.

nxt_http_log_date(u_char *buf, nxt_realtime_t *now, struct tm *tm,
    size_t size, const char *format)
{
    ...
    return nxt_sprintf(buf, buf + size, format,
                       tm->tm_mday, month[tm->tm_mon], tm->tm_year + 1900,
                       tm->tm_hour, tm->tm_min, tm->tm_sec,

  1. Called nxt_thread_time_string() to generate the time string.
str->length = nxt_thread_time_string(task->thread, &date_cache, str->start)
                  - str->start;

Rather than storing a string representing the timestamp, you simply store
a time_t or struct timespec instead,

There are serval ways to do it like what happens in nxt_time.c.

nxt_realtime(nxt_realtime_t *now);
void nxt_localtime(nxt_time_t s, struct tm *tm);

But I suppose it's a toss up between doing perhaps unnecessary work at
startup and how often /status is called...

I guess it's not often, but anyway, I feel nxt_thread_time_string() is more efficient since it has cached value internally.
My thought is to reuse the time and time-string infrastructure as much as possible.

What is cached exactly?

I think there's a lot over-optimisation in Unit...

However reading the clock should generally be pretty efficient as it's
usually handled via a vDSO(7).

My thought is to reuse the time and time-string infrastructure as much
as possible.

Where it makes sense...

What is cached exactly?

Take the error log as an example, if there are lots of logs generated in a very short term, for example, 1s, these logs may count the time only once, but not calling something like gmtime() and strftime() for each logging.
It has a cached time-string value for each nxt_time_string_t variable.

Good to know, thanks.

Either way, we have to do two things: get the current time and format time-string.
In nxt_time.c, it has the APIs to get the current time, and it's used in nxt_thread_time_string().
Then we usually use nxt_sprintf() to format the string.

Hi @Pavlusha311245

There is a nxt_status_report_t structure in src/nxt_status.h. I wonder if these would be better placed there?

Hmm... I can try 🙂 But I thought of leaving them in runtime so that I could use them anywhere else. Also I need it here to known time when config initialized. Have you suggestion how I can do it? @ac000

It seems they don't belong to nxt_runtime_t and nxt_status_report_t.
The nxt_status_report_t is a temporary structure to collect the status information from every engine between worker threads in the router process.
The configuration generation needs to increase when a new configuration is generated. But I can't see where it happens in the PR. The configuration time needs to be recorded on its corresponding configuration.
I feel you need to handle them first.
No clear idea on it yet, but you might start with nxt_router_conf_data_handler() which generates configuration structure through control API.

The update of the counter and time is now located in nxt_controller in thenxt_controller_conf_store() method

The configuration is updated by the control API which is created in the controller process.
I feel it has nothing to do with the structure nxt_runtime_t.
When a new configuration is applied, the last JSON value is stored as nxt_controller_conf.
We could consider putting the generation and updated time in this structure nxt_controller_conf_t.
Btw, debug information in error.log is useful.

Do you have a specific use case in mind? I think it would be nice to have all (or at least most of them, I can see the odd one possibly coming from some other pre-existing place) the status variables stored in the same place. If you did then find that you needed them for some other purpose, then I would look at making the status structure more accessible. I know this may sound like a lot of extra work, but I think it's important to get the fundamentals right now, before this API is expanded any further...

@ac000 Hi. Unfortunately, I can’t think of any case, although I think it might suddenly be needed. As I understand from the message. If I need to save a given use case, will I need to make a structure for this?

@Pavlusha311245 Hello there!
I just wanted to reach out and see if you were still engaged in pushing this changeset forward... It seems like good information to be exposing, and I wanted to check up on how this is going.

If I understand correctly it looks like left to do is to use the nxt_mp_alloc instead of nxt_alloc and to refactor to extend the nxt_controller module instead of keeping the new data in the nxt_runtime_t object?

Please let us know if there is anything blocking you!

There is not enough time to complete this task. I want to close it as soon as possible so that the changes go to the main branch. If there is such a possibility, I would ask for help
