This patch adds support for vlan stats to be included when dumping vlan
information. We have to dump them only when explicitly requested (thus the
flag below) because that disables the vlan range compression and will make
the dump significantly larger. In order to request the stats to be
included we add a new dump attribute called BRIDGE_VLANDB_DUMP_FLAGS which
can affect dumps with the following first flag:
- BRIDGE_VLANDB_DUMPF_STATS
The stats are intentionally nested and put into separate attributes to make
it easier for extending later since we plan to add per-vlan mcast stats,
drop stats and possibly STP stats. This is the last missing piece from the
new vlan API which makes the dumped vlan information complete.
A dump request which should include stats looks like:
[BRIDGE_VLANDB_DUMP_FLAGS] |= BRIDGE_VLANDB_DUMPF_STATS
A vlandb entry attribute with stats looks like:
[BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY] = {
[BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_STATS] = {
[BRIDGE_VLANDB_STATS_RX_BYTES]
[BRIDGE_VLANDB_STATS_RX_PACKETS]
...
}
}

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
