This PR introduces significant improvements to the project's profiling capabilities, enabling better performance analysis in CI and local development.

Key Changes

  • CPU Profiling: Integrated pprof-rs under a new cpu-profiling feature. This allows for generating CPU flamegraphs in environments where perf is restricted (like standard GitHub Actions runners).
  • Profiler Flushing Fix: Refactored the graceful shutdown logic to ensure that both dhat and pprof profilers are explicitly dropped when a SIGINT or SIGTERM is received. This ensures profiling data is correctly written to disk.
  • Improved Nightly Benchmarks: These changes will allow the nightly benchmark workflow to successfully capture and upload both memory and CPU profiles, which were previously failing to generate.

Walkthrough

Adds an optional Cargo feature cpu-profiling to crates/logfwd and declares pprof = { version = "0.14", features = ["flamegraph"], optional = true }. Refactors the binary entrypoint to a synchronous main() delegating to main_inner() -> i32, introduces CliError for config/runtime error classification and propagation, and changes several internal functions to return Result/propagate errors instead of calling std::process::exit. Adds conditional runtime profiling: dhat heap profiler and pprof flamegraph generation in run_pipelines. Updates the GitHub Actions profile job to build a profiling-enabled logfwd binary and upload dhat-heap.json and flamegraph.svg.

Remove unwired cpu-profiling feature and pprof dependency.

The feature and optional dependency are declared in Cargo.toml (lines 9, 18) but have no implementation: no #[cfg(feature = "cpu-profiling")] guards exist, and pprof is never referenced in code. Adding dependencies without justification violates project guidelines.

Thanks for the catch. This is now wired in code: crates/logfwd/src/main.rs contains #[cfg(feature = "cpu-profiling")] guarded pprof::ProfilerGuardBuilder initialization plus flamegraph generation during shutdown. I kept the cpu-profiling feature and pprof dependency because they are now actively used.

Add --profile DIR argument to enable dhat profiling in workflow.

The workflow passes --dhat-binary ./bin/logfwd-prof but omits --profile DIR. Without --profile DIR, the profiling block in main.rs (lines 333–390) never executes, so run_agent_dhat() is never called and the artifact files are never generated. The artifact upload will find nothing.

To fix: add --profile /tmp/profiles (or similar) to the benchmark invocation, then update the upload path to reference the actual location where files are written.

Agreed on enabling --profile and aligning artifact paths. I wasn’t able to apply this directly because workflow files are restricted in this run. Leaving this open for a follow-up workflow edit.

logfwd-competitive-bench only runs the profiling block when --profile DIR is set, so this invocation currently skips both perf/flamegraph and dhat generation even though --dhat-binary is provided.

In crates/logfwd-competitive-bench/src/main.rs, profiling is gated by if let Some(ref profile_dir) = args.profile_dir (around line 333). With the current command, that condition is false and no dhat-heap.json/flamegraph.svg is produced, so artifact upload has nothing to collect.

Please restore --profile (for example --profile ./profiles) and align the upload paths to that directory.

293-327: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

Don't exit(0) from the signal task.

The signal path never cancels the shared shutdown token; it writes the profiles and terminates the process immediately. That skips the existing drain/join logic below, meter_provider.shutdown(), and any in-flight pipeline flushes, so SIGINT/SIGTERM becomes abrupt shutdown again. Cancel the token here and let run_pipelines() own the final teardown after workers exit.

plain cargo build, causing codegen to differ from the benchmarked binaries;
update the "Build logfwd with profiling" step (the cargo build --release
--features dhat-heap,cpu-profiling -p logfwd invocation) to set the same
RUSTFLAGS used elsewhere (e.g. -Ctarget-cpu=x86-64-v3) so the profiled binary
matches the benchmarked CPU target; you can do this by exporting RUSTFLAGS or
prefixing the cargo command with RUSTFLAGS="<same flags>" before running cargo
build and then cp target/release/logfwd bin/logfwd-prof as before.

cmd_config()/cmd_generate_json()/validate_pipelines() and match on those
variants, returning EXIT_CONFIG for configuration/usage/validation failures and
EXIT_RUNTIME for other errors, and keep the eprintln printing the error text

error messages and multi-line expressions). Ensure the code compiles after
formatting and that expressions like format!(...) and multi-line returns are
properly aligned per rustfmt so cargo fmt --check passes.
- Around line 286-290: The pprof profiler initialization currently calls
ProfilerGuardBuilder::default().build().unwrap() which can panic; change this to
handle errors by replacing .unwrap() with either the ? operator (propagate the

created only on success and matches the existing shutdown handling for
pprof::ProfilerGuard (refer to pprof_guard and ProfilerGuardBuilder in the

build().unwrap() introduces a hard panic in a production code path when cpu-profiling is enabled.

pprof::ProfilerGuardBuilder::build() can fail in restricted environments (e.g. missing perf permissions on CI/container hosts). In that case, this unwrap() aborts process startup before pipelines run.

Please propagate or handle this error explicitly (consistent with repo guidance to avoid .unwrap() in production paths), e.g. map it to io::Error and return it from run_pipelines.

This now force-exits from the signal task and bypasses the normal shutdown path.

Before this change, signal handling called shutdown_for_signal.cancel(), allowing run_async tasks to stop, sibling joins to complete, and post-run cleanup (like meter-provider shutdown) to run. With std::process::exit(0) here, SIGINT/SIGTERM can terminate immediately and skip that graceful path.

Please keep the profiler flush/drop logic, but then signal cancellation (shutdown_for_signal.cancel()) and let run_pipelines unwind naturally.

This refactor changes user-facing exit-code semantics for config/argument errors.

print_usage() documents exit code 1 for configuration errors, but branches like missing config path now return Err(...), and main_inner maps all Err to EXIT_RUNTIME (2).

Concrete regression: logfwd --config (without a path) now exits 2 instead of 1.

Please preserve config-vs-runtime distinction (e.g., typed error/exit enum or explicit mapping) so config/CLI validation failures still return EXIT_CONFIG.

317-358: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Move CPU profile emission and metrics shutdown into a shared tail block to ensure both occur on all exit paths.

Currently, pprof_guard is moved into the signal task, so flamegraph.svg is only written on signal interrupts (lines 352-359). Meanwhile, meter_provider.shutdown() at line 458 is only called when all pipelines succeed—it's skipped on error returns at lines 378, 390, 430, and 432. This causes telemetry loss on non-graceful-shutdown paths and loses CPU profiling on programmatic exits. Move profile emission and meter shutdown to execute once after pipelines complete, regardless of success or failure.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Stop double-printing CLI errors.

main_inner() already renders every CliError at Lines 128-133. These branches still print before returning, so --config/--generate-json now emit duplicate errors with different wording. Return one contextual CliError::Config(...) here and let the top-level handler print it once.

Also applies to: 176-180, 193-195, 243-249

🛠️ Refactor suggestion | 🟠 Major

Rename the cmd_* helpers.

cmd_config, cmd_blackhole, and cmd_generate_json still use the disallowed cmd abbreviation. Prefer full verb_noun names before more call sites depend on them.

As per coding guidelines, "Allow only specific abbreviations in names: buf, pos, len, idx, cfg, ctx. No other abbreviations."

Also applies to: 237-242

- Add cpu-profiling feature with pprof-rs dependency
- Ensure dhat and pprof profilers are explicitly dropped during graceful shutdown
- Fix process exit logic to allow destructors to run before termination
- Update nightly bench workflow to use pprof-rs and upload flamegraphs
Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
The profiling step in bench.yml was missing --profile, so the competitive
bench tool's profiling code path was never entered — neither dhat-heap
nor perf/flamegraph artifacts were produced.

Changes:
- Add --profile . to enable the profiling code path
- Set LOGFWD to logfwd-prof binary so pprof CPU profiling activates

Addresses review feedback on #449.

logfwd-prof is built with both dhat-heap and cpu-profiling, then used for the dhat pass. That means the SIGTERM shutdown path in crates/logfwd/src/main.rs also writes flamegraph.svg during the dhat run, which overwrites the perf/inferno flamegraph generated earlier in the same --profile . directory.

Concrete failure mode: artifact upload picks up only the last flamegraph.svg, so the expected perf flamegraph is lost/replaced.

Consider separating outputs (different filenames/dirs) or using separate binaries for perf and dhat profiling.

Use distinct profiling binaries and a dedicated profiles directory so the dhat run no longer overwrites the perf flamegraph. Align the profiling build job with the main benchmark toolchain and lock in the new pprof dependency set.
