thanks for the proof-reading, to Randy Dunlap too. now I have tested the patch against mainline. so, anyone has a comment on my actual question about the need for a read-lock? currently my patch looks like this (again comments are welcome): diff -rub A/include/linux/tcp.h B/include/linux/tcp.h --- A/include/linux/tcp.h 2012-06-22 20:37:50.000000000 +0200 +++ B/include/linux/tcp.h 2012-07-06 10:23:13.000000000 +0200 @@ -472,6 +474,15 @@ * contains related tcp_cookie_transactions fields. */ struct tcp_cookie_values *cookie_values; + + /* + * TCP health monitoring counters. + */ + __u32 dup_acks_sent; + __u32 dup_pkts_recv; + __u32 acks_sent; + __u32 pkts_recv; + __u32 last_ack_sent; /* Sequence number of the last ack we sent. */ }; static inline struct tcp_sock *tcp_sk(const struct sock *sk) diff -rub A/net/ipv4/tcp_input.c B/net/ipv4/tcp_input.c --- A/net/ipv4/tcp_input.c 2012-06-22 20:37:50.000000000 +0200 +++ B/net/ipv4/tcp_input.c 2012-07-06 10:12:12.000000000 +0200 @@ -4414,6 +4415,8 @@ } if (!after(TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->end_seq, tp->rcv_nxt)) { + /* Course retransmit inefficiency- this packet has been received twice. */ + tp->dup_pkts_recv++; SOCK_DEBUG(sk, "ofo packet was already received\n"); __skb_unlink(skb, &tp->out_of_order_queue); __kfree_skb(skb); @@ -4664,6 +4667,10 @@ return; } + /* A packet is a "duplicate" if it contains bytes we have already received. */ + if (before(TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq, tp->rcv_nxt)) + tp->dup_pkts_recv++; + if (!after(TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->end_seq, tp->rcv_nxt)) { /* A retransmit, 2nd most common case.
