Will i did try to do this back in March. And i failed.
Lets start with stats. Vivien gives an example on the cover letter:
# pr -mt switch0/port{5,6}/stats
in_good_octets : 0 in_good_octets : 13824
in_bad_octets : 0 in_bad_octets : 0
in_unicast : 0 in_unicast : 0
in_broadcasts : 0 in_broadcasts : 216
in_multicasts : 0 in_multicasts : 0
in_pause : 0 in_pause : 0
in_undersize : 0 in_undersize : 0
This is what i tried to implement using dpipe. It is a simple two
dimensional table. First column is a string, second a u64. In debugfs
we have such a table per port. That fits with the hierarchy that each
port is a directory in debugfs. But it could also be implemented as
one table with N+1 columns, for N switch ports.
How about you, or one of your team, implement that. It should be able
to use the dsa_loop driver, which is a simple dummy switch. But it
does have statistics counters for all ports. Florian or I can help you
get it running if needed.
This branch contains some of the basic plumbing code from my previous
attempt:
