Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next-2.6]: xfrm: Introduce LINUX_MIB_XFRMFWDHDRERROR
Date: Wed, 17 Feb 2010 06:40:52 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1266406852.3799.7.camel@bigi> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 332 bytes --]


I had a hard time debugging some setup while testing xfrm by mark
in presence of traffic being forwarded as well as being locally 
terminated. This change helped narrow things down a little for me.
The danger is that it changes the /proc output which may break some
user space tool (thats why i have it as an RFC).

cheers,
jamal

    xfrm: Introduce LINUX_MIB_XFRMFWDHDRERROR
    
    XFRMINHDRERROR counter is ambigous when validating forwarding
    path. It makes it tricky to debug when you have both in and fwd
    validation.
