Introduction If you work with Oracle clients that make use of OCI (Oracle Call Interface), you may have noticed that the OCI driver in 8.1.7.x makes thousands of calls to translate messages from the oraus.msb file. This can degrade application performance by 5 percent or more (quite severely in some cases). This problem has been documented by Oracle under bug ID 2142623. The problem can be overcome by caching the oraus.msb file in memory, and translating the file access and system calls to user calls and memory operations. The caching solution is dynamic, and code changes are not needed. The solution can improve the performance of the Oracle client application. Recently, this solution resulted in bringing down the application runtime from 15 minutes to a few seconds at a major customer – about 100x times performance improvement. The performance benefits can be seen in applications like sqlplus and Oracle clients (C and C++) making use of the OCI driver. Java technology-based applications using JDBC (native driver) should also see similar benefits. 2. Identifying the Problem An Oracle client application can be trussed on the Solaris Operating System (OS) to see the calls being made to this file -- "truss" is a system utility available on the Solaris platform, and it can be used to trace system calls made by an application. A running Oracle client application can be trussed as follows: truss -p [oracle client pid] The truss command will show all the system calls being made by the application. The ones of interest are the open(), fcntl(), lseek(), read(), and close() calls. These calls are made by the OCI driver repeatedly to translate messages. Here is a truss snippet showing the problem calls: open("/oracle/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/rdbms/mesg/oraus.msb", O_RDONLY) = 9fcntl(9, F_SETFD, 0x00000001) = 0lseek(9, 0, SEEK_SET) = 0read(9, "1513 "011303/t/t/0/0/0/0".., 256) = 256lseek(9, 512, SEEK_SET) = 512read(9, "1C88 Y r ~ M/0/0/0/0/0/0".., 512) = 512lseek(9, 1024, SEEK_SET) = 1024read(9, "/018/0 $/0 7/0 @/0 J/0 V".., 512) = 512lseek(9, 39936, SEEK_SET) = 39936read(9, "/0/t0519/0/0/0 >051A/0/0".., 512) = 512close(9) = 0 These system calls can be expensive. The number of times these system calls are executed depends on the client application and the duration of the application run. 3. The Workaround: Cache oraus.msb in Memory The workaround is to cache the contents of the oraus.msb in memory and not make these system calls. This can be done dynamically by using the LD_PRELOAD technique available on the Solaris OE. (For further information, see the References section.) LD_PRELOAD is an environment variable on Solaris that allows shared libraries to be preloaded before an application begins execution. To make use of this technique, we need to build a shared library that will interpose on the open(), fcntl(), lseek(), read(), and close() calls. 4. Building cache_oraus.so The shared library can be built with the Forte C compiler (now part of the Sun ONE Compiler Collection) using the following switches: 32-bit: cc -G -o cache_oraus.so -fast cache_oraus.c -l dl 64-bit: cc -G -o cache_oraus.so -fast -xarch=v9a cache_oraus.c -l dl 5. How to Use cache_oraus.so The following environment variables need to be set to use the caching mechanism: export LD_PRELOAD=./cache_oraus.soexport oraus_msb_file=/ora/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/rdbms/mesg/oraus.msb This can be set in a shell script used to start the client application. 6. How the Caching Works The caching works by interposing the open(), fcntl(), lseek(), read(), and close() calls. The first time the application executes one of these calls, the control is first transferred to the interposed function code. 6.1 Interposition of the open() Function Call Whenever a file is opened, the control is transferred to the interposed open() from cache_oraus.so. The interposed open() checks to see if the file being opened is the oraus.msb (see STEP 3 in the following code example). If so, the file is opened, and memory mapped (STEP 5.1). The descriptor returned by open() is also cached. For all other opens, the control is transferred to the original libc.so (STEP 7). int open(const char *path, int oflag, mode_t mode) { static int(*fptr)() = 0; static char* msb_path;STEP 1 if (fptr == 0) { fptr = (int (*)())dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, "open"); if (fptr == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "dlopen: %s /n", dlerror()); return 0; }STEP 1.1 msb_path = (char*)getenv("oraus_msb_file"); }STEP 2 if (!msb_path) { msb_path = "/oracle/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/rdbms/mesg/oraus.msb"; }STEP 3 if (strcmp(path, msb_path) == 0) {STEP 4 if (k_bm_fd == -1) { k_bm_fd = ((*fptr)(path, oflag, mode)); if (k_bm_fd <= 0) { perror(path); exit(1); }STEP 5 fstat(k_bm_fd, &k_bm_stat_buf);STEP 5.1 k_bm_buf = (char*)mmap((caddr_t) 0, k_bm_stat_buf.st_size, (PROT_READ), MAP_SHARED, k_bm_fd, 0); assert(k_bm_buf != MAP_FAILED); return k_bm_fd; } else {STEP 6 return k_bm_fd; } }STEP 7 return ((*fptr)(path, oflag, mode));} STEPS Description 1 Use dlysym() to get a pointer to the original libc.so open() call, so that we can chain to it. 1.1 We use an environment variable, oraus_msb_file, to find the location of the oraus.msb file. 2 If this variable is not set, we use a default path. 3 We make sure the open call is related to the oraus_msb_file. For all other open calls, we chain to the original open() call. 4 We make sure this is the first time we are going through this code path as we want to map the file into memory only once. We open the file and cache the returned descriptor in k_bm_fd. 5 We get some information about the file itself, such as size. 5.1 The most important step: we map the file into memory. 6 We have already opened the file, and we return the cache descriptor. 7 For all other opens, the interpose gives control back to the original libc.so open() call. Table 1: open() Call 6.2 Interposition of the fcntl() Function Call A fcntl() call is made to change the file control parameters. The first time fcntl() is executed to change oraus.msb control parameters, the control is first transferred to the fcntl() in libc.so. The return value is cached, as well as returned back to the Oracle client (STEP 2). The next time fcntl() is executed, if the file descriptor matches the oraus.msb file descriptor, the cached return value is returned (STEP 3). The control is not transferred to fcntl() in libc.so. int fcntl(int fildes, int cmd, int arg) { static int ret; static int(*fptr)() = 0; char* path;STEP 1 if (fptr == 0) { fptr = (int (*)())dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, "fcntl"); if (fptr == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "dlopen: %s /n", dlerror()); return 0; } }STEP 2 if (k_fcntl_bm_fd == -1) { if (fildes == k_bm_fd) { ret = ((*fptr)(fildes, cmd, arg)); k_fcntl_bm_fd = k_bm_fd; return ret;; }STEP 3 } else if (k_fcntl_bm_fd == fildes) { return ret; } STEP 4 return ((*fptr)(fildes, cmd, arg));} STEPS Description 1 Use dlysym() to get a pointer to the original libc.so fcntl() call, so that we can chain to it. 2 We make sure this is the first time we are going through this code path as we want to execute fcntl() only once. We also make a copy of the open descriptor in k_fcntl_bm_fd. 3 If the fildes is equal to k_fcntl_bm_fd, then we just return the cached return value. 4 For all other opens, the interpose gives control back to the original libc.so fcntl() call. Table 2: fcntl() Call Back to Top 6.3 Interposition of the lseek(), read(), and close() Function Calls For the lseek() call, if the file descriptor matches the cached oraus.msb file descriptor, the file offset is stored instead of calling the lseek() in libc.so (STEP L2). On a read() call, if the file descriptor matches the cached oraus.msb file descriptor, the file offset stored from the lseek() is used to index into the memory mapped oraus.msb data. A memcpy() is then executed (STEP R2). So an I/O call is now transformed to a simple memcpy() call. A close() on the cached file descriptor is ignored so that the cached file descriptor can be reused. off_t lseek(int fildes, off_t offset, int whence) { static off_t (*fptr)() = 0; STEP L1 if (fptr == 0) { fptr = (int (*)())dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, "lseek"); if (fptr == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "dlopen: %s /n", dlerror()); return 0; } } STEP L2 if (fildes == k_bm_fd) { k_bm_offset = offset; return offset; } STEP L3 return ((*fptr)(fildes, offset, whence));} STEPS Description L1 Use dlysym() to get a pointer to the original libc.so lseek() call, so that we can chain to it. L2 If the fildes is equal to k_bm_fd, then we keep track of the k_bm_offset so that we access this memory location. L3 For all other opens, the interpose gives control back to the original libc.so lseek() call. Table 3: lseek() Call ssize_t read(int fildes, void *buf, size_t nbyte) { static ssize_t (*fptr)() = 0; STEP R1 if (fptr == 0) { fptr = (ssize_t (*)())dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, "read"); if (fptr == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "dlopen: %s/n", dlerror()); return (0); } } STEP R2 if (fildes == k_bm_fd) { memcpy(buf, k_bm_buf+k_bm_offset, nbyte); return nbyte; } STEP R3 return ((*fptr)(fildes, buf, nbyte));} STEPS Description R1 Use dlysym() to get a pointer to the original libc.so read() call, so that we can chain to it. R2 If the fildes is equal to k_bm_fd, then we use the stored k_bm_offset to access the right memory location, and do a memcpy(). R3 For all other opens, the interpose gives control back to the original libc.so read() call. Table 4: read() Call int close(int fildes) { static int(*fptr)() = 0; STEP C1 if (fptr == 0) { fptr = (int (*)())dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, "close"); if (fptr == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "dlopen: %s /n", dlerror()); return 0; } } STEP C2 if (fildes == k_bm_fd) { return 0; } STEP C3 return ((*fptr)(fildes));} STEPS Description C1 Use dlysym() to get a pointer to the original libc.so close() call, so that we can chain to it. C2 If the fildes is equal to k_bm_fd, then we justreturn 0 to signal a successful close, but without closing the file. C3 For all other opens, the interpose gives control back to the originallibc.so close() call. Table 5: close() Call Back to Top 7. Performance Improvement The performance improvement comes from not executing the system calls. The multiple instances of open(),fcntl(),lseek(), read(), and close() to read the oraus.msb messages are transformed to user-level calls. Also, the I/O operation becomes a simple memory-to-memory transfer. To measure the performance gains, a test program mimicking an Oracle client's behavior was developed. The test program performs open(),lseek(), read(), and close() calls on the oraus.msb file 50,000 times. The test program showed a gain of about 1000%. However, in a real Oracle client application, this might translate to about a 2 percent-to-15 percent gain in performance. 7.1 Without LD_PRELOAD and cache_oraus.so Type Time in Seconds Real 5.633 User 0.010 Sys 0.014 Table 6: ptime test.sh Back to Top 7.2 With LD_PRELOAD and cache_oraus.so Type Time in Seconds Real 0.462 User 0.010 Sys 0.013 Table 7: ptime test.sh 8. Caveat The preceding code is not multithreaded. For Oracle clients that are multithreaded, the write access to the cache variables needs to be mutex protected or synchronized. 9. Conclusion Caching the file oraus.msb in memory improves the performance of Oracle clients. Even though the performance gain observed in the test program is about 1000 percent, the gain when running a really big Oracle client application might not be more than 2 to 15 percent, due to other I/O contentions. This gain can be achieved without any code changes to the client application. 10.
