### AI overview

The article reports Grafana Labs experiments testing whether providing AI agents with Grafana Cloud's Knowledge Graph improves incident debugging compared with raw telemetry alone. In one incident replayed 16 times per approach, Knowledge Graph context led to the correct root cause 15 times, versus once with raw telemetry. The article also describes challenges including misleading signals, unsupported confident answers, and inconsistent investigations, arguing that well-structured context matters more than context-window size alone.

### Source excerpt

On the product team here at Grafana Labs, we consider AI agents our users, too. That's why we set out to test how well agents can debug incidents across the full stack, and how much better they perform with Grafana Cloud's Knowledge Graph vs. using raw telemetry alone. Our early results are promising. In one real incident we replayed 16 times each way, an agent with Knowledge Graph context found the correct root cause 15 times, compared with just once using raw telemetry alone. Along the way, we also uncovered some of the challenges that still stand in the way of reliable AI-assisted debugging, from chasing the wrong signals to confidently making things up and producing inconsistent answers. We're still early, but our findings point to an important idea. The industry's shorthand right now is that a bigger context window will lead to better outputs. Our findings suggest it's not just about more context; it's about structuring your data well enough to serve the right context. Here's a look at what we've learned so far, as we continue to experiment out in the open and bring you along, the Grafana Labs way. Giving an agent access to telemetry is just the beginning Give a current-generation model like Opus 4.8 access to your raw telemetry during a live incident, and it genuinely starts to figure things out: querying metrics and logs, forming a hypothesis, and checking it. We have watched it work on our own incidents, and it does it affordably. But if you run software at scale, where uptime is business-critical and large teams share the responsibility, a better model alone doesn't get you all the way there for debugging. From analyzing how LLMs do root-cause analysis on our own infrastructure, and from speaking to our customers, we've uncovered three problems that get in the way: The further the cause is from the alert, the more likely the model is to get it wrong. An agent may confidently make things up when it doesn't have the evidence it needs. The same investigation c

### AI overview

Swift 6.3 and the upcoming Swift 6.4 improve how explicitly built Swift modules are referenced in debug information. The article explains how this helps LLDB locate modules for expression evaluation, improving debugging reliability and reducing build products, while noting that custom build systems may need adjustments.

### Source excerpt

When your Swift program hits a breakpoint and stops so you can inspect it, the debugger's expression evaluator has to find the exact Swift module your code was built from. Until now, that lookup wasn't always precise. The upcoming Swift 6.4 release will include changes, begun in Swift 6.3, that address this by updating how the Swift compiler references explicitly-built Swift modules in debug info. The majority of developers will automatically benefit from faster, more reliable debugging and smaller build products, without any modifications to their SwiftPM or Xcode projects. For developers who maintain their own build systems using, for example, Bazel, Buck, or CMake, some adjustments may be necessary to take advantage of these changes. This article explains how the debugger uses Swift modules. Next, it describes how Swift 6.3 changes the way modules are tracked in debug info to solve several problems with the previous representation. Finally, it shows how to adjust build systems to take advantage of the new representation and eliminate some build steps that are no longer necessary. Swift modules and expression evaluation LLDB's standout feature is its powerful expression evaluator. Because LLDB embeds the Clang and Swift compilers, it can JIT-compile any valid source code and run it in the context of your application while stopped at a breakpoint. This includes not just calling code in your application, but also defining new data types, functions, and closures. Debugging features that are usually reserved for interpreted or JIT-compiled languages like JavaScript become available to ahead-of-time-compiled languages like C++ and, of course, Swift! In order to JIT-compile user expressions that make use of data types defined in the debugged program, LLDB's embedded Swift compiler needs to import the Swift modules defining those types. In a world before explicitly-built modules, LLDB would find the base name of the main module at the current breakpoint in the debug info

### AI overview

ADB Wi-Fi 2.0 updates Android wireless debugging with a redesigned server stack, smarter network handling, and improved Android Studio discovery. The article reports higher automatic connection success rates and faster connections, and lists the required versions and pairing steps.

### Source excerpt

Posted by Steven Jenkins, Product Manager, Sherif Eid, Senior Software Engineer, and Fabien Sanglard, Staff Software Engineer, Android Studio Wireless debugging on Android is now faster, more reliable, and easier to set up than ever. With ADB Wi-Fi 2.0, we've introduced a new server stack and smarter network handling to directly address developer feedback around usability gaps. How ADB Wi-Fi 2.0 Improves Wireless Debugging To ensure ADB Wi-Fi 2.0 is even more reliable, we reworked all three core components of the stack: the adb server, the adbd daemon, and Android Studio. Here are the new features: A new server stack (adb): Previously, wireless device connections would sever when network configurations changed or devices were turned off. This meant that connections would drop for common occurrences. With our new mDNS stack, we've replaced both Bonjour and legacy mDNS so that your wireless devices more reliably stay connected as you go about your day. Smarter network handling (adbd): Previously, the workstation's mDNS client would sporadically drop services. Now, the daemon automatically turns off ADB Wi-Fi when it detects an untrusted network and re-enables itself once running on a user-allowed network. Improved discoverability in Android Studio: Previously, Wi-Fi pairing was difficult to find. Now, you simply enable wireless debugging on your phone and it will show in Android Studio's Device Manager. With ADB Wi-Fi 2.0, auto-connection success rates improved by 32% and connection speeds increased by 66% for 90% of connections.

### AI overview

The Rust project reports results from its first Rust Debugging Survey, which received more than 2,300 responses. The article examines who uses debuggers, how Rust developers debug programs, and the debugging challenges they encounter. More than 46% of respondents currently use debuggers, while print debugging and the macro are widely used, followed by debugging inside an IDE and on the command line.

### Source excerpt

One of the biggest challenges Rust developers report in our annual surveys is a subpar debugging experience. So, back in February, we ran our first Rust Debugging Survey, in the hopes of identifying how Rust developers are using debuggers and what problems they are facing when doing so. We received over 2,300 responses, and we'd like to thank everyone who took the time to participate in the survey! In this report, we'll go over some of the results of the survey. If you'd like, you can also check out the complete results of the survey. If you'd like to skip ahead to any particular section, you can do so with this index: Who Uses Debuggers? How Are Debuggers Used? Challenges Debugger Visualizers Closing Remarks Who Uses Debuggers? The first step to making sense of the survey results is understanding who took the survey. We asked respondents to rate their Rust expertise, from "Never used it" to "Advanced". Over 80% reported themselves as "Advanced" or "Intermediate", split roughly evenly between the two: [PNG] [SVG] We also asked respondents if they currently use or have used debuggers in Rust. Over 46% said they currently do, with the remaining responses split between "have in the past" and "never have". That means that over half of respondents do not currently use a debugger for Rust! [PNG] [SVG] Categorized by expertise, the responses reveal that roughly half of "beginners" have never used debuggers in Rust! On the other hand, nearly half of "advanced users" currently do use debuggers in Rust: [PNG] [SVG] For respondents who indicated they had previously used Rust but no longer did, we asked if challenges with debugging support were why they stopped. For nearly 3%, the answer was "yes", with an additional 24% reporting debugging issues as being partially responsible (though mind the small response count; most respondents were active users of Rust): [PNG] [SVG] How Are Debuggers Used? Knowing what debuggers developers are using and how is another important part of un

### AI overview

A progress callback is never invoked because an intermediary method returns its own operation without forwarding progress reports from the provider's underlying operation. The suggested fix is to return the provider's operation directly so callers can attach to its progress.

### AI overview

This article explains how routers that rewrite or fail to decrement TTL values can cause traceroute to omit entire networks and create a false impression of Internet topology. It describes the normal traceroute mechanism and measurements using RIPE Atlas probes to investigate the behavior.

### Source excerpt

Traceroute is a powerful tool for uncovering how packets travel across the Internet. However, as we recently discovered, some routers tamper with the TTL values in traceroute's probing packets, giving you a false view of how networks are actually interconnected.

### AI overview

A Windows desktop connected to a 10GbE homelab network was limited to roughly 100-200 megabits per second despite 10-gigabit link indications. Direct testing traced the problem to the Windows/NIC path: increasing the Intel E610 driver's receive buffers eliminated discarded packets and improved receive throughput, while disabling IPv4 Large Send Offload V2 raised transmit throughput to 7.03 Gbit/sec.

### Source excerpt

I've been moving my home storage over to a UniFi UNAS Pro 8 as part of a larger homelab moderization. My main IRONHEART (the ultimate PC from a few years back) desktop now has an Intel E610-XT2 10GbE card, the NAS is on 10GbE, and there's a Minisforum MS-01 miniPC on the same network with a 10GbE SFP+ connection running Immich and Portainer and a few other things. Everything says 10 gigabit. Windows says 10 gigabit. UniFi says 10 gigabit. SMB copies are using the correct NIC but my file copies are running at around 100 to 200 megabits per second which is sad making. Naturally, I blamed the NAS, and the spinning rust within. The UNAS has six 16 TB spinning disks in RAID 6 and a pair of NVMe SSDs being used as cache. I'm also running Immich on the MS-01, with its photo library living on the UNAS, so there are lots of thumbnails, metadata reads, and little background writes happening. All seem like reasonable suspects. I switched the UNAS SSD cache from read-write to read-only. No meaningful difference. I stopped Immich completely. No difference. I looked at iostat; the disks weren't saturated. We looked at SMB signing and Windows Defender network scanning. Still slow. Then I stopped testing the NAS and ran iperf3 directly between the Windows desktop and the MS-01: iperf3 -c 192.168.1.222 -P 4 133 Mbit/sec Oops. The reverse test was better, but still wrong: iperf3 -c 192.168.1.222 -P 4 -R 1.33 Gbit/sec That's weird. Now the disks, SMB, Immich, RAID, and the NAS itself were completely out of the equation. This was a Windows/NIC problem and it's weirdly asymmetrical. Looking at the Intel adapter statistics shows me... Get-NetAdapterStatistics -Name "Ethernet - 10 Gig Intel" There were nearly a million ReceivedDiscardedPackets. During one ten-second iperf3 test, the counter increased by another 268. Why? The E610 driver had its receive buffers at the default 512, although it supported up to 4096. I increased them. I love an increased buffer. Set-NetAdapterAdvancedProperty
