Ideally we would allow a blend of tracing and networking programs, then the best solution would be one or two stable tracepoints in networking stack where skb is visible and receiving/transmitting task is also visible, then skb->len and task->pid together would give nice foundation for accurate stats.
I think combining both seems interesting anyway, we need to find a way to make this gluing of both worlds easy to use, though. It's certainly interesting for stats/diagnostics, but one wouldn't be able to use the current/future skb eBPF helpers from {cls,act}_bpf in that context. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
