Re: [PATCH v3 0/7] Statsfs: a new ram-based file system for Linux kernel statistics

From: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch>
Date: 2020-05-27 13:33:50
Also in: kvm, linux-arm-kernel, linux-doc, linux-fsdevel, linux-mips, linux-s390, lkml, netdev

I don't really know a lot about the networking subsystem, and as it was
pointed out in another email on patch 7 by Andrew, networking needs to
atomically gather and display statistics in order to make them consistent,
and currently this is not supported by stats_fs but could be added in
future.
Hi Emanuele

Do you have any idea how you will support atomic access? It does not
seem easy to implement in a filesystem based model.
