Hi all, During my efforts to convert ath(4) and net80211(4) to if_transmit based queues, I've noticed that the error counters aren't being incremented correctly.
In the ifq past, the _ENQUEUE macro(s) did this, with a call to IFQ_DROP() if the frame is being dropped. This was done behind the ifq lock so the counters were correctly updated. In the if_transmit() world, this isn't as clear. I know that ath(4) and net82011(4) just aren't updating the if drop counter, so it's not obvious when things are being dropped. so - what's the story with this? Where should the counters be updated? And what kinds of concurrency handling do people think is "right" here for updating said counters?
