General protocol-wide counters would not help much, at least in my case. Why not? If you know where the drops are occurring, what else do you need to know? I'm not talking about per-socket SNMP counters, that would be rediclious. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
