🦋 VALUES 🦋

here's the tea on what you get handed when this probe goes off:

• dev_name — the device that is going to provide the statistics 🫶 like, this is the name of the network device that's about to spill all its stats. remember it, love it, log it.

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

• tapset::networking(3stap) — go read this one too, it's the whole networking tapset fam and they ate ✨

lowkey reminder: this probe is called when someone asks the device statistics, so if you're trying to catch who's snooping on your netdev's numbers, this is your moment. no invented behaviour, just the facts, periodt. 💖
