system.instrumentation

Querying in ClickHouse Cloud

The data in this system table is held locally on each node in ClickHouse Cloud. Obtaining a complete view of all data, therefore, requires the clusterAllReplicas function. See here for further details.

Contains the instrumentation points using LLVM's XRay feature.

Columns:

• id (UInt32) — ID of the instrumentation point.
• function_id (Int32) — ID assigned to the function in the xray_instr_map section of the ELF binary.
• function_name (LowCardinality(String)) — Name used to instrument the function.
• handler (LowCardinality(String)) — Handler type.
• entry_type (Enum('Entry' = 0, 'Exit' = 1, 'EntryAndExit' = 2)) — Entry type: Entry, Exit or EntryAndExit.
• symbol (LowCardinality(String)) — Complete and demangled symbol.
• parameters (Array(Dynamic)) — Parameters for the handler call.
