hi,

Our project uses the java-profiler code, and the Java process has a Too many open files error. After using strace -k -e trace=openat -f java-pid, I feel that I may have found the reason. After I modified it slightly, I have verified that the problem can be solved. I don't know if I can contribute a little code to java-profiler.

[WARN] perf_event_open for TID 30704 failed: Too many open files

Hi @yanglong1010 it's interesting that you're running the wallclock profiler without the tracer-guided thread filter - we were considering removing the fallback mode. Are you running the profiler without dd-java-agent, or are you setting -Ddd.profiling.ddprof.wall.context.filter=false?

Yes, we did not use dd-java-agent, but a java agent written by ourselves.

I found that you recorded the span id in the wall clock sample event. This is a very good idea. I ported this part of the code into our project to achieve a similar continuous profiling effect. When running in continuous mode, we set the thread filter and everything is fine. The other mode is a one-time short-term opening without setting the thread filter, so it will enter the fallback mode.

- #1/#2 (ContextValueCache invalidation): replace the Java command-string
  parsing (isStartAction) — which didn't match arguments.cpp's tokenization —
  with a native, authoritative signal. Profiler::start sets a
  _context_value_dict_reset flag in the reset block where
  _context_value_map.clearAll() runs (reached only for ACTION_START), and
  JavaProfiler.execute consumes it via consumeContextDictionaryReset0() to drop
  the cache. No command re-parsing in Java. This does not fully close the
  concurrent race window (resolve() during the reset), which is no worse than
  the deprecated DirectByteBuffer path; fully closing it is tracked as a
  follow-up (see PR discussion / Jira).

- #3 (clearContextValue0 validity): capture and restore the prior valid flag
  instead of unconditionally re-attaching with valid=1, so clearing one
  attribute cannot resurrect a record that clearTraceContext0 intentionally
  left deactivated. Added AllNativeContextTest.clearContextValuePreservesInvalidState.

…1) (#631)

* docs(context): design note for all-native OTEL context storage

Captures the UAF problem, options A-E, the JMH benchmark campaign and its
governing principle, the combined-API design, the consumer audit, and the
expand -> migrate -> contract migration plan.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(context): all-native OTEL context write JNI primitives (PROF-15271)

Add native setTraceContext0/clearTraceContext0 (combined per-scope
activate/deactivate) and setContextValue0/clearContextValue0 (single attribute),
plus attrs_data compaction and LRS helpers, in javaApi.cpp, with matching private
native declarations on JavaProfiler.

Each resolves the current carrier's OtelThreadContextRecord via
ProfiledThread::current(). A JNI native frame pins a mounted virtual thread to its
carrier for the duration of the call, so the resolved record is guaranteed live and
cannot migrate mid-write -- there is no cached per-thread DirectByteBuffer to
dangle. Writes follow the same detach -> mutate -> attach valid-flag protocol as
ThreadContext, keeping the async-signal-handler sampler (ContextApi::get) coherent.

Native layer only; the public Java API and value cache built on top follow in a
later commit. The DirectByteBuffer path is unchanged.

* feat(context): all-native public write API + global value cache (PROF-15271)

Add the public all-native context API on JavaProfiler (provisional names, pending
dd-trace-java coordination): setTraceContext/clearTraceContext (combined per-scope
activate/deactivate) and setContextValue/clearContextValue (single attribute),
each backed by the native primitives.

Relocate the value->(encoding,utf8) memoization out of the per-thread ThreadContext
into a new process-wide ContextValueCache. Because the encoding is a process-global
immutable ID (registerConstant0), a shared lock-free cache is correct: immutable
entries published via a single AtomicReferenceArray slot store (no torn reads), a
miss re-registers idempotently, and collisions self-heal. This avoids duplicating
the table across every carrier/virtual thread and needs no CarrierThreadLocal.
registerConstant0 is made package-private for reuse (relocates in phase 3).

Coexists with the DirectByteBuffer path (both write the same native record); the
DBB path is unchanged.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(context): deprecate the DirectByteBuffer context API (PROF-15271)

Mark the DBB write/read surface `@Deprecated` pointing at the all-native API:
JavaProfiler.setContext/clearContext/setContextAttribute/clearContextAttribute/
setContextAttributesByIdAndBytes/copyTags/getThreadContext, and the DBB-path helper
classes ThreadContext, ScopeStack, and ContextSetter.

Non-breaking (annotations only) -- signals the migration for dd-trace-java (phase 2)
ahead of removal (phase 3). Java has no -Werror, so the deprecation notes are
informational; the DBB path still functions unchanged during coexistence.

* fix(context): native path self-initializes the LRS attrs_data entry (PROF-15271)

setTraceContext0/clearTraceContext0 now write the fixed LRS entry header
(key_index=0, length=16) in addition to its hex value, instead of relying on the
ThreadContext constructor to have initialized it. This makes the all-native path
correct on a record that only saw the ProfiledThread zero-init -- i.e. when no
DirectByteBuffer/ThreadContext was ever created (the phase-2 pure-native case),
where attrs_data[1] would otherwise be 0 and mis-frame the LRS entry.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(context): all-native context write API tests (PROF-15271)

AllNativeContextTest exercises setTraceContext/clearTraceContext/setContextValue/
clearContextValue: round-trip readback, equivalence with the DirectByteBuffer path,
clear semantics, span-transition attribute reset, single-attribute set/clear,
attrs_data overflow, rejected (null/oversized) values, DBB<->native coexistence on
one thread, and coherence of native writes from many mounted virtual threads (the
migration-safe path).

Read-back uses the ThreadContext DBB read methods as an oracle -- a view over the
same native record the all-native path writes. All 9 pass on JDK 21 (debug); the
existing context suite (Otel/Carrier/Tag/ProcessContext) is unregressed.

* docs(context): reference the preserved benchmark-experiment branch (PROF-15271)

Point the design note appendix at branch context-storage-benchmark-experiment
(pushed to origin), which preserves the full JMH campaign + native prototypes for
reproducibility, rather than describing scaffolding that lives only on that branch.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(context): production perf-guard benchmark for the all-native cycle (PROF-15271)

ContextCombinedBenchmark compares the production per-scope activate+deactivate cycle:
the combined native calls (setTraceContext + clearTraceContext) vs the deprecated
DirectByteBuffer sequence as dd-trace-java actually drives it (profiler.setContext +
2x setContextAttribute + clear...), on platform + mounted virtual threads, both storage
modes.

Measured (JDK 21, debug, carrier): native ~136 ns vs DBB ~189 ns -- native ~28% faster,
mode-independent, and a win on vthreads too (~147 vs ~193 ns). The DBB baseline here is
the faithful production cost: each of its 6 calls pays a currentContext()/
CarrierThreadLocal lookup, which the 2-call combined native cycle avoids.

* docs(context): add missing javadoc tags on new all-native context API

Fixes check-javadoc "no comment" warnings for setTraceContext,
setContextValue, and clearContextValue introduced in this PR.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* review: address pre-review findings on the all-native context API

- Convert `// @deprecated` line comments into proper `@deprecated` javadoc
  tags on the deprecated JavaProfiler methods and the ThreadContext /
  ScopeStack / ContextSetter classes, so the rationale renders in javadoc
  and `-Xlint` stops warning about the missing tag.
- Reject out-of-range slots (`slot >= MAX_CONTEXT_SLOTS`) in setContextValue
  and resolveContextValue before resolving, so an invalid slot no longer
  registers an orphan entry in the permanent native Dictionary (matches the
  DBB ThreadContext.setContextAttribute guard and the existing javadoc).
- Reconcile the perf figures in the design note: explain that ~7-10% is the
  prototype microbench baseline and ~28% is the production ContextCombinedBenchmark
  baseline (six real currentContext()-resolving calls), so they no longer read
  as contradictory.
- Clarify the otelWriteLrsEntry comment: only setTraceContext0/clearTraceContext0
  establish the LRS entry; setContextValue0 does not, which is harmless.
- Add an assert(len <= 255) in otelReadUtf8 documenting the caller contract,
  keeping the clamp as release-build defense.

* review: address PR #631 review findings on the all-native context API

- P1 (Codex/jbachorik): the all-native write entry points never initialized
  OTEL TLS, so a thread that used only setTraceContext/setContextValue wrote a
  record the sampler (ContextApi::get / wallClock) ignored and eBPF could not
  discover. setTraceContext0 / setContextValue0 now call
  ContextApi::initializeContextTLS(thrd) on first use, matching the DBB path.
  Added AllNativeContextSamplingTest: a wall-clock JFR test on a thread that
  never calls getThreadContext(), asserting a sample carries the natively
  written context (fails if the record is not published to the sampler).

- jbachorik: ContextValueCache assumed process-lifetime-immutable encodings,
  but a fresh start resets the native Dictionary (clearAll), reassigning IDs.
  Added ContextValueCache.clear(), invoked from execute() on a 'start' action,
  and corrected the class javadoc invariant.

- jbachorik: MAX_CONTEXT_SLOTS duplicated native DD_TAGS_CAPACITY with only a
  comment binding them. Added native accessor maxContextSlots0() and
  MaxContextSlotsTest to catch drift from DD_TAGS_CAPACITY /
  ThreadContext.MAX_CUSTOM_SLOTS at test time.

- jbachorik nits: added tests for the native null byte[] guard in otelReadUtf8,
  the otelCompactAttr 2-byte (zero-length value) boundary, and the
  setContextValue slot == MAX_CONTEXT_SLOTS boundary.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* review: setContextValue0 preserves prior valid state (kaahos)

Apply the same guard as clearContextValue0: capture the record's valid flag up
front and restore it instead of hardcoding valid=1. Writing a single attribute
must not resurrect a record that clearTraceContext0 intentionally deactivated —
republishing it would expose a span-less record (zero trace/span) as valid.
Mirrors the DBB path's guard in ThreadContext.setContextAttributesByIdAndBytes
("never resurrect a cleared, span-less record").

Added AllNativeContextTest.setContextValuePreservesInvalidState.

* feat(context): fail fast on illegal arguments in the all-native write API

Distinguish caller programming errors (fail loud) from runtime/data conditions
(soft signal), instead of silently swallowing the former:

- setTraceContext rejects spanId==0 with IllegalArgumentException — it is the
  activation path and requires a real span; clearing is clearTraceContext. This
  drops the DBB path's conflation of setContext(0,0,0,0) with a clear and never
  publishes a span-less record. The native setTraceContext0 primitive asserts
  spanId!=0 as debug-only defense (the wrapper validates first).
- Out-of-range custom-attribute slots now throw IllegalArgumentException in
  setTraceContext (non-negative slot >= MAX_CONTEXT_SLOTS; negative stays the
  documented skip sentinel), setContextValue, and clearContextValue — instead of
  being silently skipped / returning false / no-op'ing.

Data conditions stay soft (not exceptions), matching normal control flow: a null
or oversized value, or a full Dictionary, still returns false (setContextValue)
or skips (setTraceContext). Native keeps its hard slot range guards (load-bearing
for memory safety and to defend direct-JNI calls).

Tests: added setTraceContextRejectsZeroSpanId; expanded slotBoundaryIsRejected to
assert IllegalArgumentException across setContextValue/clearContextValue/
setTraceContext and that a negative activation slot still skips without throwing.

* context: setContextValue0 publishes app context without a span

Reverse the earlier "preserve prior valid" change on setContextValue0. Setting a
value means "make it visible": an attribute must be observable to the sampler
even when no span is active (zero trace/span). This is dd-trace-java's
app-context-independent-of-span model (PR #11646) — app-owned attributes such as
http.route, and the reapply-after-deactivation path, must stay visible between
spans. It mirrors the DBB single-attribute setter
(ThreadContext.setContextAttributeDirect), which always re-attaches; the earlier
change had wrongly modeled it on the *bulk* setter's valid==0 guard.

clearContextValue0 keeps preserving the prior valid flag: removing a value must
not resurrect a deactivated record. So the asymmetry is intentional and matches
the DBB single-vs-bulk behavior the tracer's reapply logic was built around:
set publishes, clear does not.

Test renamed/rewritten: setContextValuePublishesAppContextWithoutSpan asserts a
value set after clearTraceContext republishes (valid=1, span=0, value observable).

* context: native copyContextTags read + phase 2 migration plan

Add JavaProfiler.copyContextTags(int[]) + native copyContextTags0: reads the
current thread's custom-attribute sidecar tag encodings directly from the record
(ProfiledThread::current()), with no ThreadContext / DirectByteBuffer. Unlike the
deprecated DBB copyTags — which goes through ThreadContext, whose ctor resets the
record — this observes encodings written via the all-native setContextValue path
and does not clobber them. This is the read the dd-trace-java Phase 2 migration
needs for its (test-only) snapshot() oracle once writes go all-native.

Also adds the Phase 2 plan doc (dd-trace-java migration onto the all-native API).

Test: AllNativeContextTest.copyContextTagsReadsNativeEncodings (never calls
getThreadContext, proving the native read observes native writes).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* context: add ContextSetter.size() (pure-Java slot count)

The dd-trace-java Phase 2 bridge sizes its app-offset arrays from the context
attribute count. It previously read that as snapshotTags().length — a DBB read
that creates a ThreadContext. Expose size() (attributes.size(), pure Java) so the
bridge can size without touching the DBB path; offsetOf + size are the only
ContextSetter methods it still uses.
