Which man pages would these be? Can this be done across the board through
the /proc FS?

Yep, the af_packet.c file definately does not have counters for OOM
on receive. Should be trivial to add them, but might be a pain to display
them... Supposing I did want to add the counters & display them. Is
that normally done through the proc FS, or just through IOCTLs?
