gld_stats(9S)

Name

gld_stats– Generic LAN Driver statistics data structure

Synopsis

#include <sys/gld.h>

Interface Level

Solaris architecture specific (Solaris DDI).

Description

The Generic LAN Driver (GLD) statistics (gld_stats) structure is used to communicate statistics and state information from a GLD-based driver to GLD when returning from a driver's gldm_get_stats() routine as discussed in gld(9E) and gld(7D). The members of this structure, filled in by the GLD-based driver, are used when GLD reports the statistics. In the tables below, the name of the statistics variable reported by GLD is noted in the comments. See gld(7D) for a more detailed description of the meaning of each statistic.

Drivers can make no assumptions about the length of this structure, which might be different in different releases of Solaris and/or GLD. Structure members private to GLD, not documented here, should not be set or read by the device specific driver.

Structure Members

The following structure members are defined for all media types:

uint64_t   glds_speed;               /* ifspeed */
uint32_t   glds_media;               /* media */
uint32_t   glds_intr;                /* intr */
uint32_t   glds_norcvbuf;            /* norcvbuf */
uint32_t   glds_errrcv;              /* ierrors */

uint32_t   glds_dot3_frame_too_long;     /* toolong_errors */
uint32_t   glds_short;                   /* runt_errors */

The following structure members are defined for media type DL_TPR:

uint32_t   glds_dot5_line_error          /* line_errors */
uint32_t   glds_dot5_burst_error         /* burst_errors */
