Hi Neil, I'm wondering if you have or know of any public
documentation/examples for using net_dropmon.

If not, I'll figure it out on my own at some point.

Thanks in advance!

(Not a very high priority project for me, my network connectivity
 problems are sadly _very_ obvious at the moment :x)

I don't think there are any particular examples at the moment, but if you
download the dropwatch utility, it uses the dropmon protocol to detect frame
loss in the stack, and its use is pretty self explanitory, as is the perf script
that uses the same tracepoints as the dropmon protocol.

Thanks Neil!  I think I'll just use dropwatch directly instead of
writing my own code, now :)
