Subject: [RFC iproute2-next 0/5] ss statistics fixes

From: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@...rosoft.com>

The output of the ss -s command has been broken for a long time
because of kernel changes (ie since 2.6).

This is an attempt to resolve most of the issues. Still don't like
the way it is using slabinfo to get the data but some of this information
would be expensive for kernel to account for otherwise.

Stephen Hemminger (5):
  ss: make args to get_snmp_int const
  ss: make tcp_mem long
  ss: use sockstat to get TCP bind ports
  ss: don't look for skbuff_head_cache
  ss: use correct slab statistics
