Backport 1/1 commits from #72443 on behalf of @andreimatei.

/cc @cockroachdb/release


ContextWithRecording span was closing the passed-in Tracer, which is
completely wrong. This has been broken since a long time ago; the
function originally was written to create its own Tracer but then
changed to take in a Tracer and the bad close remained.

As a practical consequence, tracing to external tracers stopped whenever
one of the debug pages that uses this utility was used.

Release note (bug fix): Fixed a bug causing tracing to external tracers
to inadvertently stop after the Enqueue Range or the Allocator debug
pages was used.

Thanks for opening a backport.

Please check the backport criteria before merging:

  • Patches should only be created for serious issues or test-only changes.
  • Patches should not break backwards-compatibility.
  • Patches should change as little code as possible.
  • Patches should not change on-disk formats or node communication protocols.
  • Patches should not add new functionality.
  • Patches must not add, edit, or otherwise modify cluster versions; or add version gates.
If some of the basic criteria cannot be satisfied, ensure that the exceptional criteria are satisfied within.
  • There is a high priority need for the functionality that cannot wait until the next release and is difficult to address in another way.
  • The new functionality is additive-only and only runs for clusters which have specifically “opted in” to it (e.g. by a cluster setting).
  • New code is protected by a conditional check that is trivial to verify and ensures that it only runs for opt-in clusters.
  • The PM and TL on the team that owns the changed code have signed off that the change obeys the above rules.

Add a brief release justification to the body of your PR to justify this backport.

Some other things to consider:

  • What did we do to ensure that a user that doesn’t know & care about this backport, has no idea that it happened?
  • Will this work in a cluster of mixed patch versions? Did we test that?
  • If a user upgrades a patch version, uses this feature, and then downgrades, what happens?
