While trying to monitor traffic on OpenBSD router box with
darkstat, I observed thatdarkstatcannot account traffic accurately when there's a large traffic, because of packetpcappacket drop. For example, openbsdpcapdrops about 1/3 packets on ~1gbps which makes accounting rather inaccurate.To overcome the issue, I tried to capture number of bytes/packets from
pfinstead ofpcap. It seems working on my environment and I wanted share the patch with others :)Notes
cache.candpf.care largely borrowed from openbsd source tree.-lflag to work property, as it cannot detect local interface address.
