🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this tapset is like... the group chat of TCP MIB counters and address helpers? every entry below is a lil something you can call or probe, and each one has its own dedicated manpage with the full tea. here's the whole roster, no cap, nobody left out 👑

💜 the functions (they get, they fetch, they serve)

• tcpmib_get_state — gets a socket's state. like, what is it going through rn. the vibe check of sockets fr.

peek at function::tcpmib_get_state(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib_local_addr — gets the source address.

peek at function::tcpmib_local_addr(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib_remote_addr — gets the remote address.

peek at function::tcpmib_remote_addr(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib_local_port — gets the local port.

peek at function::tcpmib_local_port(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib_remote_port — gets the remote port.

peek at function::tcpmib_remote_port(3stap) for the full deets.

🎀 the probes (the counters, the moment-catchers)

• tcpmib.ActiveOpens — counts an active opening of a socket. you went out there and opened it yourself. main character behavior.

peek at probe::tcpmib.ActiveOpens(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.AttemptFails — counts a failed attempt to open a socket. it tried. it did not succeed. 😭

peek at probe::tcpmib.AttemptFails(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.CurrEstab — updates the count of open sockets. the "how many are we holding rn" number.

peek at probe::tcpmib.CurrEstab(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.EstabResets — counts the reset of a socket. rip to that connection 💀

peek at probe::tcpmib.EstabResets(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.InSegs — counts an incoming tcp segment. mail's here 🍓

peek at probe::tcpmib.InSegs(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.OutRsts — counts the sending of a reset packet. you're the one doing the reseting this time.

peek at probe::tcpmib.OutRsts(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.OutSegs — counts the sending of a TCP segment. out the door it goes ✨

peek at probe::tcpmib.OutSegs(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.PassiveOpens — counts the passive creation of a socket. it came to you. iconic.

peek at probe::tcpmib.PassiveOpens(3stap) for the full deets.

• tcpmib.RetransSegs — counts the retransmission of a TCP segment. it said "not me forgetting" and sent it again 🫶

peek at probe::tcpmib.RetransSegs(3stap) for the full deets.
