What is istio-proxy access log mean?

问题

I am trying to troubleshoot my service by looking at the istio-proxy access log (it logs every access). However, I can't find any documentation that explains the meaning of each entry in the log.

For example

[2018-12-20T11:09:42.302Z] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 - 0 614 0 0 "10.32.96.32" "curl/7.54.0" "17b8f245-af00-4379-9f8f-a4dcd2f38c01" "foo.com" "127.0.0.1:8080"

What does log above mean?

Updated

I've tried Vadim's answer, but I couldn't find the log format data. Here's the output json file. Is there anything that I miss? I am using istio-1.0.0

回答1:

Istio/Envoy access logs comes with a default format. Here is the default format

[%START_TIME%] "%REQ(:METHOD)% %REQ(X-ENVOY-ORIGINAL-PATH?:PATH)% %PROTOCOL%" %RESPONSE_CODE% %RESPONSE_FLAGS% %BYTES_RECEIVED% %BYTES_SENT% %DURATION% %RESP(X-ENVOY-UPSTREAM-SERVICE-TIME)% "%REQ(X-FORWARDED-FOR)%" "%REQ(USER-AGENT)%" "%REQ(X-REQUEST-ID)%" "%REQ(:AUTHORITY)%" "%UPSTREAM_HOST%"\n

It matches with the sample log entry that you have given. You can find more details about the fields and generally about envoy's access logs here

Istio proxy access log's configuration is defined as part of envoy.http_connection_manager or envoy.tcp_proxy filters. To see it's configuration, run:

istioctl proxy-config listeners <your pod> -n <your namespace> -o json

Search for access_log of envoy.http_connection_manager for HTTP and access_log of envoy.tcp_proxy for TCP.

You will see something like this:

 "filters": [
                {
                    "name": "envoy.http_connection_manager",
                    "config": {
                        "access_log": [
                            {
                                "config": {
                                    "format": "[%START_TIME%] \"%REQ(:METHOD)% %REQ(X-ENVOY-ORIGINAL-PATH?:PATH)% %PROTOCOL%\" %RESPONSE_CODE% %RESPONSE_FLAGS% %BYTES_RECEIVED% %BYTES_SENT% %DURATION% %RESP(X-ENVOY-UPSTREAM-SERVICE-TIME)% \"%REQ(X-FORWARDED-FOR)%\" \"%REQ(USER-AGENT)%\" \"%REQ(X-REQUEST-ID)%\" \"%REQ(:AUTHORITY)%\" \"%UPSTREAM_HOST%\" %UPSTREAM_CLUSTER% %UPSTREAM_LOCAL_ADDRESS% %DOWNSTREAM_LOCAL_ADDRESS% %DOWNSTREAM_REMOTE_ADDRESS% %REQUESTED_SERVER_NAME%\n",
                                    "path": "/dev/stdout"

Check the log attributes definitions here

If access_log's format is not specified in the output above, the default format is used.

Here is the format of log:

\[%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601:timestamp}\] \"%{DATA:method} (?:%{URIPATH:uri_path}(?:%{URIPARAM:uri_param})?|%{DATA:}) %{DATA:protocol}\" %{NUMBER:status_code} %{DATA:response_flags} \"%{**DATA:mixer_status**}\" %{NUMBER:bytes_received} %{NUMBER:bytes_sent} %{NUMBER:duration} (?:%{NUMBER:upstream_service_time}|%{DATA:tcp_service_time}) \"%{DATA:forwarded_for}\" \"%{DATA:user_agent}\" \"%{DATA:request_id}\" \"%{DATA:authority}\" \"%{DATA:upstream_service}\" %{DATA:upstream_cluster} %{DATA:upstream_local} %{DATA:downstream_local} %{DATA:downstream_remote} %{**DATA:requested_server**}

Here is real log:
