Solaris Bandwidth Manager 1.5 Developing Guide

Arguments

The function ba_get_class_stats() is passed the following arguments:

`interface`	Pointer to a character string that contains the name of the managed interface. For example, `le0`, `hme0`. To specify the direction for which you want class information, append `_in` or `_out` to the interface name. If you do not specify the direction, it is assumed to be `_out`.
`classname`	Pointer to a character string that contains the class name.
`stats`	Pointer to a structure of type `ba_class_stats_t`. This is the buffer into which statistics for the specified class are written.

Structures of type ba_class_stats_t are defined as follows:

typedef struct {
   ba_name_t   interface; /* name and direction of the interface */
   ba_name_t   classname; /* name of the class */
   u_int       npackets; /* packets sent in this class */
   u_int       nbytes; /* bytes sent in this class */
   u_int       borrows; /* # times tried to borrow */
   u_int       drops; /* packets dropped */
   u_int       bdrops; /* bytes dropped */
   hrtime_t    lastseen; /* timestamp of last packet sent */
*/
} ba_class_stats_t;

You must allocate sufficient memory for the buffer, either statically or dynamically. For example:

/* static allocation */
{
	class_stats_t stats;
	
	if (ba_get_class_stats("hme0", "root", &stats) != -1) {
		printf("Number of bytes sent: %d\n", stats.nbytes);
	} else {
		/* error handling */
	}
}

/* dynamic allocation */
{
	class_stats_t *statsp;
	
	statsp = (class_stats_t *) malloc(sizeof class_stats_t);
	if (ba_get_class_stats("hme0", "root", statsp) != -1) {
		printf("Number of bytes sent: %d\n", statsp->nbytes);
	} else {
		/* error handling */
	}
}
