Hello,
I wanted some information on the SCTP patch "sctp: Add support to
per-association statistics via a new SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STA "
The commit information is
commit 196d67593439b03088913227093e374235596e33
Author: Michele Baldessari <michele@acksyn.org>
Date: Sat Dec 1 04:49:42 2012 +0000
Is it possible to know into which kernel version did this patch go into?
I tried to find it online and I was not able to. Hence mailing to this list.
It will be helpful if you anyone answer this.
Thanks and Regards
Kishan

Sure :
$ git describe --contains 196d67593439b03088913227093e374235596e33
v3.8-rc1~139^2~117
So all linux versions starting from linux-3.8 have it.

as Eric mentioned, it's in 3.8 (or also in RHEL-6.5). Feel free to reach out
if you have any questions.
cheers,
Michele

Hello Michele,
Thank you for the response.
I have a few more queries regarding the patch.
We are trying to integrate this patch to a little older kernel 2.6.34.13.
Additionally we are planning to give a proc file interface to display the stats.
I came across a review comment for your patch, where the proc solution
was rejected.
Can you provide some information on why the solution was rejected ?
Thanks and Regards
Kishan

This is trivial as we've done so for RHEL 6.5 already.

It was preferred to do it via an API extension, similar to how
Solaris does it. And, I believe, the /proc interface for these kind of
things is discouraged.

Hi Michele,
Thanks for your time and reply.
We here have a requirement to implement a CLI to get these stats.
And one of the options we thought to use was /proc files to get these stats.
Going through the mail chain of this patch (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sctp/msg01813.html) , I came across this.
" socket option is preferable as /proc doesn't scale very well as number of associations grows."
Here I am just curious to know how much "is the number of associations" referred to?
Thanks & Regards,
Prasad
