ipv4: add LINUX_MIB_IPRPFILTER snmp counter
Christoph Lameter mentioned that packets could be dropped in input path because of rp_filter settings, without any SNMP counter being incremented. System administrator can have a hard time to track the problem. This patch introduces a new counter, LINUX_MIB_IPRPFILTER, incremented each time we drop a packet because Reverse Path Filter triggers. (We receive an IPv4 datagram on a given interface, and find the route to send an answer would use another interface) netstat -s | grep IPReversePathFilter IPReversePathFilter: 21714 Reported-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
