STRUCT PIE_STATS(9)

👑 struct pie_stats(9) 👑

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this little cutie is struct pie_stats and she is literally the receipts for your PIE queue — every packet that came in, every one that got dropped, all of it 💅 no cap, she's just a stats container and she's serving main character energy.

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct pie_stats — contains pie stats 🥧 like, that's it, that's the whole vibe. she holds the numbers, she doesn't do the math herself 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct pie_stats {
    u32 packets_in;
    u32 dropped;
    u32 overlimit;
    u32 ecn_mark;
    u32 maxq;
 };

so it's giving five u32 fields, one struct, zero drama — every single member is a u32, periodt 💖

🦋 Members 🦋

bestie, let's do a vibe check on every single field one by one, no skipping, iykyk 👑

• packets_in — the total number of packets enqueued 🔥 like, the whole headcount of who got let into the queue. icon behaviour, honestly.
• dropped — packets dropped due to pie action 😭 yeah, PIE said "not you" and yeeted them. this is her own doing, not a space issue — important distinction, ngl 💀
• overlimit — packets dropped due to lack of space in queue 🙈 the queue was simply too full, no room at the inn, sorry bestie. different reason from dropped, don't mix them up fr fr.
• ecn_mark — packets marked with ECN ✨ these ones got the little mark instead of the boot — the polite warning, the "i'm watching you" of the network world 🌈
• maxq — the maximum queue size ⭐ the absolute ceiling, the final boss, the biggest she's ever been 🎀
