Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/5] net/sched: netem: add per-impairment extended statistics
Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2026 15:52:09 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260403225324.476787-5-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260403225324.476787-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
netem applies several impairments (delay, loss, corruption, duplication,
reordering) but exposes no counters distinguishing which impairment
affected a given packet.
Add a struct tc_netem_xstats reported via TCA_STATS_APP so that
userspace (tc -s qdisc show) can display per-impairment counters.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
