I'm trying to write a kernel module that will log some TCP values. Reading the output from /proc/net/tcpstat (the out of the module) is problematic as I do not want to lose info. After adding some printk to module I noticed something very strange: The printk in the init routine is fine. BUT: other printk will not print until /proc/net/tcpstat is read (using more, cat, or the like).



I really don't need /proc/net/tcpstat - just want to log some info.
After reading this post I made sure that all printk messages are ending with "n" but still it won't print to dmesg until the proc file is read.

  • information from the stack. retrans, snd window size, rcv window size, and much more that are not in netstat, ss, etc..

  • Edit your question to include what your problem is, and specifically what you want to measure. You can determine some of this with packet capture or tracing the kernel.

  • The development of such a kernel module is more of a question for Stack Overflow. Pick one. As you already have cross posted there, this question should be edited or closed. Further, good questions at either site have a clear problem statement as to what you are trying to do.
