Please see if below info. helps (not an expert comment, though :)). You can get the netdev struct of the interface by name: struct net_device *netdev = dev_get_by_name("eth0"); // when netdev->name is eth0. struct e1000_adapter *adapter = netdev_priv(netdev); // obtain the adapter. And you also can take a look at e1000_ethtool.c to obtain the stats for each interface using the adapter.
