No strong preference, for TLS I've done: # cat /proc/net/tls_stat TlsCurrTxSw 0 TlsCurrRxSw 0 TlsCurrTxDevice 0 TlsCurrRxDevice 0 TlsTxSw 0 TlsRxSw 0 TlsTxDevice 0 TlsRxDevice 0 TlsDecryptError 0 TlsRxDeviceResync 0 We can add something over netlink, I opted for simplicity since global stats don't have to scale with number of interfaces.
