system.trace_log

Contains stack traces collected by the sampling query profiler.

ClickHouse creates this table when the trace_log server configuration section is set. Also the query_profiler_real_time_period_ns and query_profiler_cpu_time_period_ns settings should be set.

To analyze logs, use the addressToLine, addressToSymbol and demangle introspection functions.

Columns:

event_date (Date) — Date of sampling moment.
event_time (DateTime) — Timestamp of the sampling moment.
event_time_microseconds (DateTime) — Timestamp of the sampling moment with microseconds precision.
timestamp_ns (UInt64) — Timestamp of the sampling moment in nanoseconds.
revision (UInt32) — ClickHouse server build revision.

When connecting to server by clickhouse-client, you see the string similar to Connected to ClickHouse server version 19.18.1 revision 54429.. This field contains the revision, but not the version of a server.
timer_type (Enum8) — Timer type:
- Real represents wall-clock time.
- CPU represents CPU time.
thread_number (UInt32) — Thread identifier.
query_id (String) — Query identifier that can be used to get details about a query that was running from the query_log system table.
trace (Array(UInt64)) — Stack trace at the moment of sampling. Each element is a virtual memory address inside ClickHouse server process.
