[PATCH net-next] net-core: rx_otherhost_dropped to core_stats

From: Jeffrey Ji
Date: Wed Apr 06 2022 - 16:02:29 EST


From: Jeffrey Ji <jeffreyji@xxxxxxxxxx>

Increment rx_otherhost_dropped counter when packet dropped due to
mismatched dest MAC addr.

An example when this drop can occur is when manually crafting raw
packets that will be consumed by a user space application via a tap
device. For testing purposes local traffic was generated using trafgen
for the client and netcat to start a server

Tested: Created 2 netns, sent 1 packet using trafgen from 1 to the other
with "{eth(daddr=$INCORRECT_MAC...}", verified that iproute2 showed the
counter was incremented. (Also had to modify iproute2 to show the stat,
additional patch for that coming next.)
