Description

This needs further investigation of the long tail of bits-hostname traffic (on the text clusters) for cases where we're breaking things we care about, some announcement, etc. Could take a while, but will eliminate cruft.

Did some investigation on geoiplookup hits:

  • Most of hits have no referer, yet the same UA: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/5.0) - protection for HTTP-only?
  • A few of them are coming from wikis with outdated versions of CentralNotice and ULS.
  • I see hits from lots of crap gateway URLs like http://static.casasyzyqyp.com/bg/?d=<hex number>___z=2___rd=<more hex>___cd=WP___instgrp=not.found___channel=not_found___partner=not_found___InstallId=not_found___uninstalled=not_found - second-level domain varies.

Not sure what you mean about "protection for HTTP-only", but we do universally HTTPS-redirect all bits.wikimedia.org traffic (it's not UA-sensitive or anything).

MaxSem added a comment.Apr 18 2016, 11:44 PM

I mean, IE 10 doesn't report referrer if original URL was http even if it got redirected to https.

bits.wikimedia.org still seems to be in the ballpark of 1% of all requests we receive.

Notable hints:

  1. Notable among the many trailing static asset paths are many different paths that end in magnify-clip.png - whatever uses this particular image may have bits hardcoded.

FWIW, this may include some very old posts on the Wikimedia blog (published before the wiki -> WordPress conversion script was updated in June 2012 to replace that icon with its version from upload.wikimedia.org). If I recall correctly, these versioned URLs of the form bits.wikimedia.org/static-([^\/]*)/skins/common/images/magnify-clip.png were breaking anyway with each new MediaWiki update, so there should be no additional harm if the entire host goes away now. Blog editors can always fix them manually.

BBlack added a comment.EditedAug 18 2016, 5:10 PM

I'd like to start the decom here with the DNS removal of the bits.wikimedia.org hostname itself, so that the traffic dies before we remove support for it at the VCL/MW levels. Taking some quick samples, almost all of the traffic remaining to this hostname that has referers from our own domains is traffic that self-refers to favicon/wikipedia.ico, and the UAs tend to be very outdated FF/Chrome releases. By self-refer, I mean traffic that looks like this in the relevant varnishlog fields:

118 RxURL        c /favicon/wikipedia.ico
118 RxHeader     c User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686 on x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/34.0.1904.41 Safari/537.36
118 RxHeader     c Host: bits.wikimedia.org
118 RxHeader     c Referer: https://bits.wikimedia.org/favicon/wikipedia.ico

Are there any final objections to finally killing this? We can of course wait a few days after DNS deletion to take further steps, and revert if there's fallout we care about. The negative TTL we serve is only 10 minutes, so that's the time-to-recovery after a revert on the AuthDNS servers.

BBlack added a comment.Aug 18 2016, 5:36 PM

(edited above to note it's just favicon, not others, that's these bulk). Also notable, many of these self-referred favicon hits are over plain old HTTP too.

So, the last two fixes to land were event.gif analytics stuff for the community Commons app, and apparently our iOS app using bits for ResourceLoader? Do we have some kind of estimate on what reasonable timeline these put on removing the hostname? The former sounds non-important, the latter may be important.

BBlack added a comment.Sep 2 2016, 9:38 PM

FWIW, the iOS app change hit its first beta release 3 weeks ago in 5.1.0.900, and was released with 5.1.0.913.1 about two weeks ago.

Looking at 24H of data from oxygen webrequest archive's sampled-1000.json-20160907, if I filter just for bits requests, cut -d/ -f1-3 to coalesce long-path noise and sort/uniq/count, it looks like this:

    1 "/af.wikipedia.org/load.php"

The total is ~1.5% of all requests, but if we eliminate the top 3 (favicon, geoiplookup, event.gif - all unimportant at this point IMHO), that number drops to ~0.02% of all requests (1622 sample entries).

Another way of slicing the data: 451 of the log entries (so ~451K/day, ~0.00006% of traffic) came from WikipediaApp UAs of various versions and flavors. They break down like this on paths:

304 "/event.gif"
 50 "/pt.wikipedia.org/load.php"
 50 "/en.wikipedia.org/load.php"
 12 "/de.wikipedia.org/load.php"

I'm putting up a straw-man hostname-decom date of 2016-09-19, which is ~10 days out from now. We'll never actually eliminate the trailing traffic before decom, and most of it seems to be junk or unimportant. If this seems too unreasonably soon, post a counter-argument and propose an acceptable alternative date please!

BBlack added a comment.Sep 21 2016, 4:08 PM

The proposed removal date was 2 days ago, I've just been busy with other things. Will merge removal today unless objections/alternatives as above. Ping @Krinkle . Keep in mind this commit going out today just pulls the DNS hostname. If there's a real problem/complaint that crops up, we can easily revert the DNS change and all of the code infrastructure still works fine.

BBlack added a comment.Sep 21 2016, 5:34 PM

Same data logging as back on Sep 7, but using Sept 21 data. Not much change in the overall, and still close to the same overall level (~1.46% of all requests):

Remove bits.wikimedia.org from DNS

Krinkle added a comment.Sep 22 2016, 9:27 PM

The ones that start with /skins and /static are most likely from on-wiki gadgets and site scripts and stylesheets (e.g. Common.css) which will have been broken by the DNS removal.

I've ran a semi-automated bot that fixes most of those (there were about 70 url references to it still in site-level JS and CSS).

The hostname's been gone for ~12 days now, so odds of revert seem low at this point. I'm going to merge up the VCL patch to kill the unused bits code there, and push for review on the related MW apache config patch as well.

fgiunchedi subscribed.Dec 16 2016, 6:56 PM

Just noticed today that posts on blog.wikimedia.org try to load event.gif beacon from bits:

var beacon = document.createElement( 'img' );
			beacon.src = '//bits.wikimedia.org/event.gif?' + encodeURIComponent( $.toJSON( capsule ) ) + ';';

The code comes from a minified file (the url shown in chrome is https://s0.wp.com/_static/??-eJydj+sKwjAMRl/Irjh16g/xWeqW1XS92XSd+vRWUEQcDoVAID3nS8oHz9DWum+AuMp16iFcHq1QNOPfAGZQBhGhMGifcO1sBBvvrHEH1MB6giBknuWg1o1w3lE0QJShkdf3k9AmhGESUxC9qDsWgPD6kRqPkPfxhJ4P2KGBBgVL5SumaDWcSWMDgY38bdpX5P6wIGVOOynRyh/strd1RGcpO3uzmy+ralUutuuNugGmuLLy).

I'm not sure how to change that and how it is set from though

Yes, this broke some time ago; the URL there needs to be updated. If someone could submit a pull request on GitHub, that would be great, otherwise I will take a look myself once I have some more time.

This was resolved on the server side back in early Dec when the MW config patch finally landed. There might be trailing traffic to this ticket in the form of reports/fixups of long-broken things, but there's really nothing left to actually do to finish decom.
