Hello!
While investigating the problems reported in Debian bug #199054
(http://bugs.debian.org/199054), stating that the RX/TX bytes differ between
ifconfig and ip(route2) I came across this:
include/linux/if_link.h (used in kernel and iproute2 source):
/* The struct should be in sync with struct net_device_stats */
struct rtnl_link_stats
{
__u32 ...;
__u32 ...;
__u32 ...;
__u32 ...;
...
include/linux/netdevice.h:
struct net_device_stats
{
unsigned long ...;
unsigned long ...;
unsigned long ...;
unsigned long ...;
unsigned long ...;
....
This will be a problem when unsigned long isn't 32bits, but I guess the
rtnetlink message size is static for good reason.
Can someone please advise on how to fix this?
