Subject: RE: [PATCH] virtio-net: Reporting traffic queue distribution
statistics through ethtool
Hi Michael,
I was getting all packets on the same inbound queue which
is why I added this support to virtio-net (and some more
instrumentation at tun as well). But, it turned out to be
my misconfiguration - I did not enable IFF_MULTI_QUEUE on
the tap device, so the real_num_tx_queues on tap netdev was
always 1 (no tx distribution at tap). I am thinking about
adding a -q option to tunctl to specify multi-queue flag on
the tap device.
Yes, number of exits will be most useful. I will look into
adding the other statistics you mention.

Thanks for the patch. The idea itself looks OK to me.
Ben Hutchings already sent some comments
so I won't repeat them. Some minor more comments
and questions below.

Interesting. This example implies that all packets are coming in
through the same RX queue - is this right?
If yes that's worth exploring - could be a tun bug -
and shows how this patch is useful.

BTW, while you are looking at the stats, one other interesting
thing to add could be checking more types of stats: number of exits,
queue full errors, etc.

I think maintaining the stats in a per-queue data structure like this is
fine. if # of CPUs == # of queues which is typical, we use same amount
of memory. And each queue access is under a lock,
or from napi thread, so no races either.

I'd prefer a full name: virtnet_ethtool_tx_stats, or
just virtnet_tx_stats.

nitpicking:
We normally has spaces around +, like this:
data[base + 1] = rstats->rx_bytes;

nitpicking:
Here, something strange happened to indentation.
