I'd like to proposed adding a new variable, ifi_epoch, to struct if_data. It will be set to the time the counters were zeroed, currently, the time if_attach was called. The intent is to provide a correct value for RFC2233's ifCounterDiscontinuityTime and to make it easier for applications to verify that the interface they are looking at is the same one that had this index last time.
Since this will increase the size of struct if_data and thus struct
ifnet, the change needs to be made now if it's going to be made for
5-STABLE. Any comments on this idea?
I'm all for it! Very useful.
This could be other reason to bump version ...
