Hi Gleb, To make sure I'm reading this correctly: (1) The sysctl operates on an opaque array of (uint64_t)s. The elements of the array are not individually accessible. (2) Reading the sysctl populates each element of the userspace array by calling counter_u64_fetch() on the corresponding element of the kernelspace array. (3) Writing the sysctl clears the kernelspace array by calling counter_u64_zero() on each element. For example, if you have a bunch of device statistics, this interface will let you get or clear them all in one shot, but they won't have distinct names. You would have to define an enum to set up names for the array indices. Does that sound correct?
