Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] netdevsim: migrate to dstats stats collection
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2025 08:06:19 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250611-netdevsim_stat-v1-1-c11b657d96bf@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250611-netdevsim_stat-v1-0-c11b657d96bf@debian.org>
Replace custom statistics tracking with the kernel's dstats infrastructure
to simplify code and improve consistency with other network drivers.
This change:
- Sets dev->pcpu_stat_type = NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_DSTATS for automatic
automatic allocation and deallocation.
- Removes manual stats fields and their update
- Replaces custom nsim_get_stats64() with dev_get_stats()
- Uses dev_dstats_tx_add() and dev_dstats_tx_dropped() helpers
- Eliminates the need for manual synchronization primitives
The dstats framework provides the same functionality with less code.
