Remove it.
Is there any further information about what is reported incorrectly? Is
rx_length_errors part of netdev stats and standardized? Does HW fail to
report some packets or does it report packets which don't have an issue?
Great questions
It's a part of visible stats, standardized.
Please add that info into commit message of v2, and CC netdev.
Perhaps one could ask if it would be better to always-report-zero as
a value of that, standardized, stat. But if we could just remove it,
it's better.
According to the bug report, HW was misreporting packets that did not have any
issues.
I mean the hardware does *something*, so I think it would be good to
have an understanding of how this differs from what we expected when
proposing to remove it.
Thanks,
Jake
