Dear maintainer,
the latest 2.10-0.1+deb12u1 update introduces a regression in ifconfig:
all packet counters always show zero:
$ ifconfig br0
br0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255
inet6 2a02:168:6818::1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x0<global>
inet6 fe80::4028:5dff:feb2:8771 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link>
ether 42:28:5d:b2:87:71 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)
RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B)
RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0
TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B)
TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0
this applies to all interfaces on several machines I checked. The
correct values are known to the kernel:
$ cat /sys/class/net/br0/statistics/rx_packets
6623318
thanks and kind regards,
-Christian
