Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2008 21:42:46 +0200 From: Denys Fedoryschenko <denys@...p.net.lb> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: interface counters overflow (ppp) Is there any plans to convert ppp counters to 64-bit values? Sure backward compatible way. (new ioctl call?) Current speeds on modern interfaces, even on 1Mbit DSL modem (PPPoE connection) will overflow pppd counters just in ~10 hours. Current pppd implementation using SIOCGPPPSTATS ioctl, where is all fields related to byte counting is 32-bit. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
