From 794c24e9921f32ded4422833a990ccf11dc3c00e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeffrey Ji Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2022 17:26:00 +0000 Subject: net-core: rx_otherhost_dropped to core_stats Increment rx_otherhost_dropped counter when packet dropped due to mismatched dest MAC addr. An example when this drop can occur is when manually crafting raw packets that will be consumed by a user space application via a tap device. For testing purposes local traffic was generated using trafgen for the client and netcat to start a server Tested: Created 2 netns, sent 1 packet using trafgen from 1 to the other with "{eth(daddr=$INCORRECT_MAC...}", verified that iproute2 showed the counter was incremented. (Also had to modify iproute2 to show the stat, additional patch for that coming next.)
