Subject: [PATCH] loopback: packet drops accounting
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2009 10:56:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49E84459.1060507@cosmosbay.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090417.013853.04495551.davem@davemloft.net>
We can in some situations drop packets in netif_rx()
loopback driver does not report these (unlikely) drops to its stats,
and incorrectly change packets/bytes counts.
After this patch applied, "ifconfig lo" can reports these drops as in :
# ifconfig lo
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
RX packets:692562900 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:692562900 errors:3228 dropped:3228 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:2865674174 (2.6 GiB) TX bytes:2865674174 (2.6 GiB)
I chose to reflect those errors only in tx_dropped/tx_errors, and not mirror
these errors in rx_dropped/rx_errors.
