Background
I have an app that prints out the following error every few seconds:
=ERROR REPORT==== 17-Jun-2019::13:50:08.172872 ===
Unexpected message: {#Ref<0.2741279221.3080978449.3817>,badarg}
I am trying to find out where it comes from.
Research done
Upon reading the message, I was convinced it originated from a missing handle_info somewhere. So I tested my theory by running the following recon_trace command:
:code.all_loaded() # returns list of {module_name, path} tuples, containing all modules in the app
|> Stream.map(fn({module, _path}) -> module end) # we just want the module_name
|> Stream.filter(&:erlang.function_exported(&1, :handle_info, 2)) # verifies if the given module has a :handle_info/2 callback
|> Stream.map(&{&1, :handle_info, :_}) # returns a tuple of {module_name, :handle_info, :_}
|> Enum.map(&:recon_trace.calls(&1, 100)) # uses recon to trace and print the first 100 calls, from all modules to :handle_info
In theory, this code should print the first 100 calls to :handle_info for all modules. However, it is only printing information about memsup.
memsup:handle_info(time_to_collect, {state,{unix,linux},
true,
{3541655552,31605788672},
{<0.7027.0>,12120624},
false,60000,30000,0.8,0.05,<0.286.0>,undefined,undefined,[],[]})
Question
This either means that :memsup is the only process making use of :handle_info (and I know this is false because we have several processes that make use of :handle_info) or the code I posted above is incorrect.
What am I doing wrong?

It looks right to me. Did you throw in some intermediary
IO.inspectcalls to make sure your outputs are what you expect? I think the last line would be a good one.Enum.map(&(:recon_trace.calls(&1 |> IO.inspect(), 100))NobbZ
From my experiments, you can only have a single trace. Therefore do as I suggested in the other thread, pass a list of
tspecrather than create a trace for eachtspec…adkron
I didn’t realize you could only have one trace call going. What about using
:_for the module?NobbZ
Seems to be not possible:
adkron
The
modtype shows that it can be. recon_trace — recon v2.5.3It is also part of the tspec that is used. recon_trace — recon v2.5.3
I guess I should just try it.

Well, @Fl4m3Ph03n1xhas tried and it didn’t work… Just read earlier posts in the linked thread
