Win dbg Dump OOM exception in IIS - debugging

Occasionally, we get an OutOfMemoryException in one of our IIS processes. I tried to analyze the dump but wasn't able to reach concrete conclusions. I also tried looking into MS hotfixes, found similar problems and resolutions, but not sure if its related or not: link
Below is the output of the !analyze -v command in WinDbg:
!analyze -v

Based on the output from !vmstat, you are out of memory. There's some mild address space fragmentation, but you only have a total of ~350MB of free memory, so you're really running close to the address space limit. The largest free block is just 6MB, and the CLR allocates virtual memory segments that are at least 16MB in size.
Your total GC heap size is just 470MB (see the last line from the !eeheap -gc output), which means you have other stuff in your process using up address space. Namely, you have >500MB of images (DLLs) and >3GB of memory classified as "Private". This can be a bunch of different things; for example, it can be unmanaged heap allocations.
You can try to further zoom in on the space hog by running !heap -s -h 0 to see if you have large unmanaged heaps in your process. I suggest that once you have a direction (is it an unmanaged heap leak? something else?) to ask another question with your findings. From the information you posted so far, we can conclude it's likely unrelated to what the managed part of your application is doing. Do you have large unmanaged components in your application? There are techniques for analyzing unmanaged memory leaks, such as UMDH or ETW heap allocation tracing.
One final comment: why are you running a 32-bit app on a system with 32 processors? Looks like a server system, and I bet you have more than 4GB of physical memory. If it's at all under your control, try making the move to 64-bit.

Circuit breaker exception elasticsearch

{
'error': {
'type': 'circuit_breaking_exception',
'reason': '[parent] Data too large, data for [<http_request>] would be [123848638/118.1mb], which is larger than the limit of [123273216/117.5mb], real usage: [120182112/114.6mb], new bytes reserved: [3666526/3.4mb]',
'bytes_wanted': 123848638,
'bytes_limit': 123273216,
'durability': 'TRANSIENT'
},
'status': 429
}
I am trying to understand the above circuit breaker error.
[123273216/117.5mb] - parent circuit breaker limit (95%).
new bytes reserved [3666526/3.4mb] - this means the new request memory needs
[123848638/118.1mb] - current heap + new bytes reserved
real usage: [120182112/114.6mb] - current heap status
Is my understanding correct?
Yes, that's correct, basically:
the current heap usage is 120,182,112
the new bytes needed to carry out the request is 3,666,526
the bytes wanted from memory would thus be 1 + 2 = 123,848,638
the total heap is 129,761,280
the maximum reservable heap memory for the parent circuit breaker is 95% of total heap = 123,273,216
Since 3 (bytes wanted) > 5 (circuit breaker limit), the circuit breaker trips

Large amount of memory allocated by net/protocol.rb:153

While running memory_profiler, I noticed a large amount of memory being allocated by Ruby's net/protocol.rb component. I call it when performing an HTTP request to a server to download a file. The file is 43.67MB large and net/protocol.rb alone allocates 262,011,476 bytes just to download it.
Looking at the "allocated memory by location" section in the profiler report below, I can see net/protocol.rb:172 and http/response.rb:334 allocating 50-60MB of memory each, which is about the size of the file, so that looks reasonable. However, the top most entry (net/protocol.rb:153) worries me: that's 200MB of memory, at least 4x the size of the file.
I have two questions:
Why does net/protocol need to allocate 5x the size of the file in order to download it?
Is there anything I can do to reduce the amount of memory used by net/protocol?
memory_profiler output:
Total allocated: 314461424 bytes (82260 objects)
Total retained: 0 bytes (0 objects)

Almost all of those strings allocated in net/protocol.rb#L153 are short-lived and are reclaimed by the next GC run. Those allocated objects are thus pretty harmless and will not result in a significantly larger process size.
You get a lot of exceptions (which are used for control flow here to read form the socket) and the actual read data which is appended to the buffer. All of these operations create temporary (internally used) objects.
As such, you are probably measuring the wrong thing. What would probably make more sense is to:
measure the maximum RSS of the process (i.e. the "used" memory);
and to measure the amount of additional memory still allocated after the read.
You will notice that (depending on the memory pressure on your computer), the RSS will not grow significantly above the amount of actually read data and that the references memory after the read is about the same size as the read data with about no internal intermediate objects still referenced.

Mistake in Virtual Hard Disk Image Format Specification?

I want to calculate the end offset of a parent locator in a VHD. Here is a part of the VHD header:
Cookie: cxsparse
Data offset: 0xffffffffffffffff
Table offset: 0x2000
Header version: 0x00010000
Max table entries: 10240
Block size: 0x200000
Checksum: 4294956454
Parent Unique Id: 0x9678bf077e719640b55e40826ce5d178
Parent time stamp: 525527478
Reserved: 0
Parent Unicode name:
Parent locator 1:
- platform code: 0x57326b75
- platform_data_space: 4096
- platform_data_length: 86
- reserved: 0
- platform_data_offset: 0x1000
Parent locator 2:
- platform code: 0x57327275
- platform_data_space: 65536
- platform_data_length: 34
- reserved: 0
- platform_data_offset: 0xc000
Some definitions from the Virtual Hard Disk Image Format Specification:
"Table Offset: This field stores the absolute byte offset of the Block Allocation Table (BAT) in the file.
Platform Data Space: This field stores the number of 512-byte sectors needed to store the parent hard disk locator.
Platform Data Offset: This field stores the absolute file offset in bytes where the platform specific file locator data is stored.
Platform Data Length. This field stores the actual length of the parent hard disk locator in bytes."
Based on this the end offset of the two parent locators should be:
data offset + 512 * data space:
0x1000 + 512 * 4096 = 0x201000
0xc000 + 512 * 65536 = 0x200c000
But if one uses only data offset + data space:
0x1000 + 4096 = 0x2000 //end of parent locator 1, begin of BAT
0xc000 + 65536 = 0x1c000
This latter calculation makes much more sense: the end of the first parent locator is the beginning of the BAT (see header data above); and since the first BAT entry is 0xe7 (sector offset), this corresponds to file offset 0x1ce00 (sector offset * 512), which is OK, if the second parent locator ends at 0x1c000.
But if one uses the formula data offset + 512 * data space, he ends up having other data written in the parent locator. (But, in this example there would be no data corruption, since Platform Data Length is very small)
So is this a mistake in the specification, and the sentence
"Platform Data Space: This field stores the number of 512-byte sectors needed to store the parent hard disk locator."
should be
"Platform Data Space: This field stores the number of bytes needed to store the parent hard disk locator."?
Apparently Microsoft does not care about correcting their mistake, this being already discovered by Virtualbox developers. VHD.cpp contains the following comment:
/*
* The VHD spec states that the DataSpace field holds the number of sectors
* required to store the parent locator path.
* As it turned out VPC and Hyper-V store the amount of bytes reserved for the
* path and not the number of sectors.

java8 -XX:+UseCompressedOops -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16

So, I'm trying to run some simple code, jdk-8, output via jol
System.out.println(VMSupport.vmDetails());
Integer i = new Integer(23);
System.out.println(ClassLayout.parseInstance(i)
.toPrintable());
The first attempt is to run it with compressed oops disabled and compressed klass also on 64-bit JVM.
-XX:-UseCompressedOops -XX:-UseCompressedClassPointers
The output, pretty much expected is :
Running 64-bit HotSpot VM.
Objects are 8 bytes aligned.
java.lang.Integer object internals:

20 4 (loss due to the next object alignment)
Instance size: 24 bytes (reported by Instrumentation API)
Space losses: 0 bytes internal + 4 bytes external = 4 bytes total
That makes sense : 8 bytes klass word + 8 bytes mark word + 4 bytes for the actual value and 4 for padding (to align on 8 bytes) = 24 bytes.
The second attempt it to run it with compressed oops enabled compressed klass also on 64-bit JVM.
Again, the output is pretty much understandable :
Running 64-bit HotSpot VM.
Using compressed oop with 3-bit shift.
Using compressed klass with 3-bit shift.
Objects are 8 bytes aligned.

Instance size: 16 bytes (reported by Instrumentation API).
4 bytes compressed oop (klass word) + 8 bytes mark word + 4 bytes for the value + no space loss = 16 bytes.
The thing that does NOT make sense to me is this use-case:
-XX:+UseCompressedOops -XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16
The output is this:
Running 64-bit HotSpot VM.
Using compressed oop with 4-bit shift.
Using compressed klass with 0x0000001000000000 base address and 0-bit shift.
I was really expecting to both be "4-bit shift". Why they are not?
EDIT
The second example is run with :
XX:+UseCompressedOops -XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers
And the third one with :
-XX:+UseCompressedOops -XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16
Answers to these questions are mostly easy to figure out when looking into OpenJDK code.
For example, grep for "UseCompressedClassPointers", this will get you to arguments.cpp:
// Check the CompressedClassSpaceSize to make sure we use compressed klass ptrs.
if (UseCompressedClassPointers) {
if (CompressedClassSpaceSize > KlassEncodingMetaspaceMax) {
warning("CompressedClassSpaceSize is too large for UseCompressedClassPointers");
FLAG_SET_DEFAULT(UseCompressedClassPointers, false);
}
}
Okay, interesting, there is "CompressedClassSpaceSize"? Grep for its definition, it's in globals.hpp:
product(size_t, CompressedClassSpaceSize, 1*G, \
"Maximum size of class area in Metaspace when compressed " \
"class pointers are used") \
range(1*M, 3*G) \
Aha, so the class area is in Metaspace, and it takes somewhere between 1 Mb and 3 Gb of space. Let's grep for "CompressedClassSpaceSize" usages, because that will take us to actual code that handles it, say in metaspace.cpp:
// For UseCompressedClassPointers the class space is reserved above
// the top of the Java heap. The argument passed in is at the base of
// the compressed space.
void Metaspace::initialize_class_space(ReservedSpace rs) {
So, compressed classes are allocated in a smaller class space outside the Java heap, which does not require shifting -- even 3 gigabytes is small enough to use only the lowest 32 bits.
I will try to extend a little bit on the answer provided by Alexey as some things might not be obvious.
Following Alexey suggestion, if we search the source code of OpenJDK for where compressed klass bit shift value is assigned, we will find the following code in metaspace.cpp:
void Metaspace::set_narrow_klass_base_and_shift(address metaspace_base, address cds_base) {
// some code removed
if ((uint64_t)(higher_address - lower_base) <= UnscaledClassSpaceMax) {
Universe::set_narrow_klass_shift(0);
} else {
assert(!UseSharedSpaces, "Cannot shift with UseSharedSpaces");
Universe::set_narrow_klass_shift(LogKlassAlignmentInBytes);
}
As we can see, the class shift can either be 0(or basically no shifting) or 3 bits, because LogKlassAlignmentInBytes is a constant defined in globalDefinitions.hpp:
const int LogKlassAlignmentInBytes = 3;
So, the answer to your quetion:
I was really expecting to both be "4-bit shift". Why they are not?
is that ObjectAlignmentInBytes does not have any effect on compressed class pointers alignment in the metaspace which is always 8bytes.
Of course this conclusion does not answer the question:
"Why when using -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16 with -XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers the narrow klass shift becomes zero? Also, without shifting how can the JVM reference the class space with 32-bit references, if the heap is 4GBytes or more?"
We already know that the class space is allocated on top of the java heap and can be up to 3G in size. With that in mind let's make a few tests. -XX:+UseCompressedOops -XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers are enabled by default, so we can eliminate these for conciseness.
Test 1: Defaults - 8 Bytes aligned
$ java -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=8 -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:+PrintCompressedOopsMode -version
heap address: 0x00000006c0000000, size: 4096 MB, zero based Compressed Oops
Narrow klass base: 0x0000000000000000, Narrow klass shift: 3
Compressed class space size: 1073741824 Address: 0x00000007c0000000 Req Addr: 0x00000007c0000000
Notice that the heap starts at address 0x00000006c0000000 in the virtual space and has a size of 4GBytes. Let's jump by 4Gbytes from where the heap starts and we land just where class space begins.
0x00000006c0000000 + 0x0000000100000000 = 0x00000007c0000000
The class space size is 1Gbyte, so let's jump by another 1Gbyte:
0x00000007c0000000 + 0x0000000040000000 = 0x0000000800000000
and we land just below 32Gbytes. With a 3 bits class space shifting the JVM is able to reference the entire class space, although it's at the limit (intentionally).
Test 2: 16 bytes aligned
java -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16 -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:+PrintCompressedOopsMode -version
heap address: 0x0000000f00000000, size: 4096 MB, zero based Compressed Oops
Narrow klass base: 0x0000001000000000, Narrow klass shift: 0
Compressed class space size: 1073741824 Address: 0x0000001000000000 Req Addr: 0x0000001000000000
This time we can observe that the heap address is different, but let's try the same steps:
0x0000000f00000000 + 0x0000000100000000 = 0x0000001000000000
This time around heap space ends just below 64GBytes virtual space boundary and the class space is allocated above 64Gbyte boundary. Since class space can use only 3 bits shifting, how can the JVM reference the class space located above 64Gbyte? The key is:
Narrow klass base: 0x0000001000000000
The JVM still uses 32 bit compressed pointers for the class space, but when encoding and decoding these, it will always add 0x0000001000000000 base to the compressed reference instead of using shifting. Note, that this approach works as long as the referenced chunk of memory is lower than 4Gbytes (the limit for 32 bits references). Considering that the class space can have a maximum of 3Gbytes we are comfortably within the limits.
3: 16 bytes aligned, pin heap base at 8g
$ java -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16 -XX:HeapBaseMinAddress=8g -XX:+UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions -XX:+PrintCompressedOopsMode -version
heap address: 0x0000000200000000, size: 4096 MB, zero based Compressed Oops
Narrow klass base: 0x0000000000000000, Narrow klass shift: 3
Compressed class space size: 1073741824 Address: 0x0000000300000000 Req Addr: 0x0000000300000000
In this test we are still keeping the -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16, but also asking the JVM to allocate the heap at the 8th GByte in the virtual address space using -XX:HeapBaseMinAddress=8g JVM argument. The class space will begin at 12th GByte in the virtual address space and 3 bits shifting is more than enough to reference it.
Hopefully, these tests and their results answer the question:
"Why when using -XX:ObjectAlignmentInBytes=16 with -XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers the narrow klass shift becomes zero? Also, without shifting how can the JVM reference the class space with 32-bit references, if the heap is 4GBytes or more?"

WHM cPanlel Disk Usage Incorrect

I have cPanel/WHM installed on a 40gb partition, however WHM shows that 8.9gb out of 9.9gb is in use. How do I correct this?
This is on an AWS EC2 instance. The root volume is configured to 40gb.
After running df -h :
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
9.9G 8.9G 574M 95% /
/dev/hda1 99M 26M 69M 28% /boot
tmpfs 1006M 0 1006M 0% /dev/shm
So that shows that the /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 is 9.9GB. However, if I run parted and print the configuration I can see that:
Model: QEMU HARDDISK (ide)
Disk /dev/hda: 42.9GB

Where are you checking disk usages in WHM ? Can you please let me know following command out put so that I can assist you on this.

I think there is free space on your server in LVM partition. Can you please check this with the following command and let me know
vgs
pvs
lvs
fdisk -l
And if you found any free space in your VolGroup, Then you will have to increase it through lvextend command, You can check it at http://www.24x7servermanagement.com/blog/how-to-increase-the-size-of-the-logical-volume/
