Hi,
I'm looking for interface statistics for a vhostuser network interface
(that uses ovs-dpdk on the other socket side).
The "virsh domifstat <domain> <ifname>" obviously don't works because it
looks at "/proc/net/dev" for statistics. When we use vhostuser, we
don't create network interface on the host but a socket.
Many tools currently rely on the domainInterfaceStats() API to retrieve
this kind of information.
So I would like to known if their is a plan to support ovs as network
interface statistics source (with something like
"ovs-vsctl get Interface <ifname> statistics") ?
I have started to write a PoC code that fallback to OVS in virNetInterfaceStats()
when we don't found the interface in /proc/net/dev.
Does this kind of contribution is welcome/match your plan ?
Regards,
