Sometimes X$ tables might have seemingly unused gaps in a row. Here is an example with X$MESSAGES:
SQL> select kqftarsz
2 from x$kqfta
3 where kqftanam = 'X$MESSAGES'
4 /
KQFTARSZ
----------
32
SQL> select c.kqfconam column_name,
2 c.kqfcodty datatype,
3 c.kqfcosiz size_byte,
4 c.kqfcooff offset
5 from x$kqfta t,
6 x$kqfco c
7 where t.kqftanam = 'X$MESSAGES'
8 and c.kqfcotab = t.indx
9 order by c.indx
10 /
COLUMN_NAME DATATYPE SIZE_BYTE OFFSET
----------- ---------- ---------- ----------
ADDR 23 8 0
INDX 2 4 0
INST_ID 2 4 0
CON_ID 2 2 0
DESCRIPTION 1 64 8
DEST 1 64 16
6 rows selected.
SQL> desc x$messages

----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
ADDR RAW(8)
INDX NUMBER
INST_ID NUMBER
CON_ID NUMBER
DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(64)
DEST VARCHAR2(64)
Having looked carefully at the output above, several discrepancies can be noticed:
- How come the row size is 32 bytes whereas there are only two non-generated columns of 8 bytes each (DESCRIPTION and DEST, which are pointers)?
- If the row size is 32 bytes, and DESCRIPTION and DEST starts at offsets 8 and 16 correspondingly, what data is in bytes 0-7 and 24-31?
Based on the fact that X$MESSAGES takes its data from ksbsdt (see X$ tables: starting address), the structure itself can be inspected in case it can help connect the dots.
[oracle@rac1 bin]$ readelf -s oracle | grep -w ksbsdt 203009: 00000000152e5760 16992 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 17 ksbsdt 218757: 00000000152e5760 16992 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 17 ksbsdt [oracle@rac1 bin]$ objdump -s --start-address=0x00000000152e5760 --stop-address=$((0x00000000152e5760+16992)) oracle oracle: file format elf64-x86-64 Contents of section .rodata: 152e5760 203eee00 00000000 48f12e15 00000000 >......H....... 152e5770 f818be13 00000000 11000000 00000000 ................ 152e5780 d04aee00 00000000 60f12e15 00000000 .J......`....... 152e5790 f818be13 00000000 01000000 00000000 ................ 152e57a0 f0b11307 00000000 78f12e15 00000000 ........x....... 152e57b0 f818be13 00000000 00000000 00000000 ................ 152e57c0 80043401 00000000 90f12e15 00000000 ..4............. 152e57d0 f818be13 00000000 05000000 00000000 ................ 152e57e0 f0162707 00000000 acf12e15 00000000 ..'............. 152e57f0 c0b28f15 00000000 00000000 00000000 ................ ...
It can be seen that there is a symbol at byte 0 and some number at byte 24; byte 8 and byte 16 has expected pointers:
[oracle@rac1 bin]$ readelf -s oracle | grep 00ee3e20 30104: 0000000000ee3e20 1344 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 ksl_pdb_event_stats_exten 322705: 0000000000ee3e20 1344 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 13 ksl_pdb_event_stats_exten [oracle@rac1 bin]$ objdump -s --start-address=0x152ef148 --stop-address=$((0x152ef148+32)) oracle oracle: file format elf64-x86-64 Contents of section .rodata: 152ef148 70646220 6576656e 74207374 61747320 pdb event stats 152ef158 61637469 6f6e0000 57616974 204f7574 action..Wait Out [oracle@rac1 bin]$ objdump -s --start-address=0x13be18f8 --stop-address=$((0x13be18f8+32)) oracle oracle: file format elf64-x86-64 Contents of section .rodata: 13be18f8 47454e30 00000000 4c4d4643 00000000 GEN0....LMFC.... 13be1908 44425730 00000000 4c434b31 00000000 DBW0....LCK1.... ...
Thus, the missing columns can be obtained using another tool that I wrote for such cases - bide (binary data extractor):
[oracle@rac1 src]$ bide dump-table ksbsdt --format func:symbol description:string dest:string L +----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------+-----------+ | func | description | dest | _unnamed3 | +----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+------------------------------------+-----------+ | ksl_pdb_event_stats_extend | pdb event stats action | GEN0 | 17 | | kslwo_compute_sys_thresholds_bg_action | Wait Outlier thresholds | GEN0 | 1 | | kslwo_process_sys_wait_bg_action | Process wait outlier | GEN0 | 0 | | ksuguid_mac_update_act | KSU GUID MAC Address update | GEN0 | 5 | | ksu_inc_sos_param | session param update action | GEN1 | 0 | | ksu_inc_sos | session update action | GEN2 | 1 | | kstmUpdateTranslationCbk | Update KGSTM Translation | MMON | 1 | | ksustaen_init_act | event nfy timeout action | GEN0 | 8 | | ksbmsg | KSB action for X-instance calls | * | 2 | | ksbckbast | KSB action for bast checking | * | 1 | | ksbsht | generic shutdown background | * | 0 | ...
Comparing it with the data seen in the database, it can be concluded that not only do we have a description of each "message" and a process presumably handling it, but also we have an underlying function:
SQL> select * from x$messages; ADDR INDX INST_ID CON_ID DESCRIPTION DEST ---------------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ----- 00000000152E5760 0 1 0 pdb event stats action GEN0 00000000152E5780 1 1 0 Wait Outlier thresholds GEN0 00000000152E57A0 2 1 0 Process wait outlier GEN0 00000000152E57C0 3 1 0 KSU GUID MAC Address update GEN0 00000000152E57E0 4 1 0 session param update action GEN1 00000000152E5800 5 1 0 session update action GEN2 00000000152E5820 6 1 0 Update KGSTM Translation MMON 00000000152E5840 7 1 0 event nfy timeout action GEN0 00000000152E5860 8 1 0 KSB action for X-instance calls * 00000000152E5880 9 1 0 KSB action for bast checking * 00000000152E58A0 10 1 0 generic shutdown background * ...
This allows one to execute those actions by calling the respective function. It also explains what is stored in bytes 0-7 and 24-31 of X$MESSAGES rows.
