beam.smp chewing CPU on v1.31.0 on arm #4307

Closed leewillis77 closed 4 weeks ago

leewillis77 commented 1 month ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

What happened?

I've upgraded to v1.31.0 and after the upgrade I noticed* that there's a beam.smp process chewing up CPU time:

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU  %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
 1041 10000     20   0  192432  64284   4732 S 144.9   3.4   6:13.18 beam.smp

The system is idle currently (car is asleep, and neither teslamate nor grafana are open on any devices).

Expected Behavior

System is idle with no excessive CPU hogging.

Steps To Reproduce

swiffer commented 1 month ago

Seems to be caused by rammitmq (quick google search) which is not utilized by teslamate. Could that be ?

@swiffer There's nothing else running on the box other than teslamate, and the processes in question look like they're coming from docker:

I do have DISABLE_MQTT=true in my docker compose since I'm not using any MQTT services if that helps.

swiffer commented 1 month ago

Ok, rabbit is based on erlang, that's where it's coming from. I wonder if #4296 is causing this.

swiffer commented 1 month ago

@leewillis77 can you try sertting ERL_MAX_PORTS

https://elixirforum.com/t/elixir-erlang-docker-containers-ram-usage-on-different-oss-kernels/57251/18

leewillis77 commented 1 month ago

Hi;

Thanks for the suggestion. I added the following under environment in my docker-compose.yml:

- ERL_MAX_PORTS=1024

It didn't make any difference - was that the correct way to make the change? E.g.

services:
  teslamate:
    image: teslamate/teslamate:latest
    restart: always
    environment:
      - DATABASE_USER=teslamate
      - DATABASE_NAME=teslamate
      - DATABASE_HOST=database
      - DISABLE_MQTT=true
      - ERL_MAX_PORTS=1024

The thread you linked to seems to be concerned with high memory usage, but the problem I'm experiencing is high CPU, not high memory.

s56oa commented 1 month ago

I have the same issue. Running in a docker on Raspberry Pi. Completely new fresh install of Teslamate made today. Version 1.31.0

@leewillis77 yes, you are right, sorry

Could one of you try

That is the latest before upgrading elixir / erlang

leewillis77 commented 1 month ago

I would if I knew how :)

beam.smp CPU usage is minimal (1.3%) with ghcr.io/teslamate-org/teslamate:pr-4300 vs > 100% as originally reported with the latest release.

swiffer commented 1 month ago

@leewillis77 - thanks testing. I guess someone else needs to step in but seems to be caused by the erlang/elixir update @JakobLichterfeld

For now it should be fine to stay on pr-4300 until a fix is on the horizon.

s56oa commented 1 month ago

I can confirm the same with image: ghcr.io/teslamate-org/teslamate:pr-4300 Version 1.30.2-dev

beam.smp CPU usage has dropped significantly to around 1,1%.

swiffer commented 1 month ago

Out of curiosity - could you check pr-4303 as well, just to make sure if it's caused by dep updates or erlang

leewillis77 commented 1 month ago

beam.smp CPU is high (over 100%) with pr-4303.

leewillis77 commented 1 month ago

I'm unfortunately not particularly knowledgeable about the erlang ecosystem, but looking back at the pstree output I posted in https://github.com/teslamate-org/teslamate/issues/4307#issuecomment-2440094006 which references inet_gethost I wonder if https://github.com/erlang/otp/issues/8961 may be related?

baresel commented 1 month ago

Same issue for me, i switched to pr-4300 and it fixed the problem for now.

brianmay commented 1 month ago

It sounds like in that linked issue the process is just hanging, not using lots of CPU.

brianmay commented 1 month ago

Beam is a VM. Probably will have problems debugging this with system tools, think you will need beam tools.

One such tool is the erlang observer. https://blog.sequinstream.com/how-we-used-elixirs-observer-to-hunt-down-bottlenecks/

Having said that, it may be fiddly to get this working in a Docker container. Either the observer needs to have X access somehow (e.g. https://github.com/c0b/docker-elixir/issues/19#issuecomment-257637757), or you need to run a local beam that connects to the remote beam somehow (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42164298/using-the-erlang-observer-app-with-a-remote-elixir-phoenix-server-inside-docker). Either way likely to be fiddly.

Also: It seems that our nix flake doesn't compile in the observer. I tried some things, but so far have been failures. Later: Oh, wait, this fixes it:

I can reproduce the high CPU usage, without any high CPU usage, system runs fine with multiple docker containers on Raspberry Pi 3B+ currently logging fine a charge.

Perhaps we can disable beams busy waiting: https://stressgrid.com/blog/beam_cpu_usage/

brianmay commented 1 month ago

My running theory is somewhere we have a loop or recursion, and as a result of the upgrades we did we accidentally broke the exit condition, and as a result the loop is running for ever and not exiting.

Wondering:

Wondering:

  • Does memory usage go up too, or is it only cpu usage?

On my system i saw only CPU going up for beam.smp directly after starting the teslamate container. This is also the case with pr-4300 but for a short time only, than it goes down. With the offizial release it is staying high all the time.

  • What is the last thing logged?

I checked only the normal logs from the container showing no error messages

  • Does teslamate appear to be working correctly regardless, or is it stuck somewhere?

Teslamate seems to be working correctly, only CPU is high for the process.

brianmay commented 1 month ago

Is it correctly publishing (and republishing) MQTT values?

(unlikely to be a problem if MQTT not even configured)

baresel commented 1 month ago

I use the ABRP extension and i saw values published to it in the logs while the beam.smp has these high CPU loads.

swiffer commented 1 month ago

i don't know if it helps - i'm running v1.31.0 (official image) for a day now without resource spikes (incl. mqtt to home-assistant) 🤔 but fairly powerful hardware (i5-14500).

teslamate/teslamate:latest - ~ 24h and 26 min driving

grafik

teslamate:pr-4300 - ~24h and 12 min driving

grafik

no meaningful differences here (docker 27.3.1, ubuntu 24.04.1, amd64) - so far only users on RPi are affected, right?

brianmay commented 1 month ago

Maybe a problem with Raspbian and latest code? What version are people using? Bookworm? Bullseye? Or Older?

It could also be an ARM specific issue also with latest beam.

brianmay commented 1 month ago

I propose that somebody create a pull request from the change to the Dockerfile reverted:

FROM elixir:1.16.2-otp-26 AS builder

We test that. Assuming that test succeeds, we then test:

FROM elixir:1.17.2-otp-26 AS builder

We should test the following also, but I suspect we can't because this is not a valid option:

FROM elixir:1.16.2-otp-27 AS builder

My suspicion is we will find otp-26 good and otp-27 bad, but would be good to prove this is indeed the case.

On the other hand, if the problem is the elixir version, not the erlang version, we probably should try 1.17.3 also.

Bullseye here.

Have not update my Pi in months (do not judge me ha). TeslaMate is the only thing running on it. Like others, after updating to 1.31.0, beam.vm shot up and chewed through CPU.

swiffer commented 4 weeks ago

updated my comment with results on amd64 - works without increase in cpu time here. guess having some exploration builds as proposed by brianmay is best to quickly see what is introducing the issue?

Good point, I hadn't thought of that. Armv7l, rasbian buster here.

I will be the somebody :-) (as it will be a bit tricky to get CI build as we prevent it if there are changes to the docker file)

swiffer commented 4 weeks ago

could someone affected try these three please?

tried these three as we know that 1.16.2-otp-26 is working and 1.17.2-otp-27 is not.

@JakobLichterfeld - i've been faster 😝

baresel commented 4 weeks ago
  • ghcr.io/teslamate-org/teslamate:pr-4314 not affected, CPU load in normal ranges

  • ghcr.io/teslamate-org/teslamate:pr-4315 not affected, same as 4300 or 4314

  • ghcr.io/teslamate-org/teslamate:pr-4316 definitly affected, CPU load is junoing between 30% and 90%

I also checked again the latest official release, there the load is jumping between 90 and 140% , which is more than i can see in the 4316 testing release!

swiffer commented 4 weeks ago

ok, so it looks like otp27 is causing the issue on arm

JakobLichterfeld commented 4 weeks ago

I assume the OTP27 docker image has set different compiler flags, I suggest a patch release with downgrading to 1.17.3-otp-26, even if I could not find any negative effect beside the "high" load in shown in top on my Raspberry Pi 3B+ (edit: corrected the otp version)

swiffer commented 4 weeks ago

what I do find interesting (but maybe completely unrelated) - RabbitMQ is not supporting OTP 27 as it has significant performance regressions in their use cases.

https://www.rabbitmq.com/docs/which-erlang#erlang-27-support

however we seem to be affected on aarch64 only.

what I do find interesting (but maybe completely unrelated) - RabbitMQ is not supporting OTP 27 as it has significant performance regressions in their use cases.

OK, thats a reason to stay with 1.17.3-otp-26 (edit: correct otp version)

why not 1.17.3-otp-26 (will update my existing PR).

Yeah, sorry for the typo :-D (edited above to avoid confusion)

Yeah, 1.17.3-otp-26

We will need to update the docs, the CI, the nix flake etc. as well

I had a theory that maybe the problem was otp-27 doesn't work correctly with bullseye. But I think the above tests clearly show bookworm has the same issue.

Just a detail I found interesting.

OTP27 has various optimizations, wonder if one of these broke things for arm. https://www.erlang.org/blog/optimizations/
