I used it now, and with a small patch it shows exactly what I need (seq, ack, timestamp, cwnd and ssthresh). I just added my knob to trpt.c .

I also modified the iptime() function to provide microsecond resolution instead of miliseconds, because most of the packets have the same timestamp attached. Still, a decent number of packets have the same timestamp. I'm looking at them only on one side of the connection (the transmitter), I wonder if there is any better solution then timestamping them on both sides - and mixing the values.

Thanks guys for the precious information, it helped a lot!


Actually the method above had issues, packets not being logged in the debug buffer (which is limited and gets discarded quickly).

Using trpt -f did solve this problem, at the cost of duplicate entries.

So what finally did the job was a small "patch" of tcp_debug.c to print on console and print only what is needed (FreeBSD 6.0 won't allow "options TCPCONSDEBUG"), and /var/log/messages was parsed to extract the values.

Cheers,
