hm weird, I have currently no setup were I can doublecheck this on a x86
environment.

The output differs, depending the patch is applied or not.

Sending 150 packets with a size of 1000 bytes to the server leads to the
following link statistic on the client side:

With your patch:

Link <broadcast-link>
  Window:50 packets
  RX packets:0 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
  TX packets:1050 fragments:1050/150 bundles:0/0
  RX naks:0 defs:0 dups:0
  TX naks:0 acks:0 dups:0
  Congestion link:46  Send queue max:0 avg:0

Link <1.1.4:eth2-1.1.211:eth1>
  ACTIVE  MTU:1500  Priority:10  Tolerance:1500 ms  Window:50 packets
  RX packets:5 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
  TX packets:4 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
  TX profile sample:2 packets  average:60 octets
  0-64:100% -256:0% -1024:0% -4096:0% -16384:0% -32768:0% -66000:0%
  RX states:544 probes:10 naks:0 defs:2 dups:2
  TX states:548 probes:470 naks:2 acks:66 dups:0
  Congestion link:0  Send queue max:0 avg:0


Without your patch:

Link <broadcast-link>
  Window:50 packets
  RX packets:0 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
  TX packets:0 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
  RX naks:0 defs:0 dups:0
  TX naks:0 acks:0 dups:0
  Congestion link:49  Send queue max:0 avg:0

Link <1.1.4:eth2-1.1.211:eth1>
  ACTIVE  MTU:1500  Priority:10  Tolerance:1500 ms  Window:50 packets
  RX packets:0 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
  TX packets:4 fragments:0/0 bundles:0/0
  TX profile sample:2 packets  average:60 octets
  0-64:100% -256:0% -1024:0% -4096:0% -16384:0% -32768:0% -66000:0%
  RX states:397 probes:7 naks:0 defs:2 dups:2
  TX states:400 probes:325 naks:2 acks:66 dups:0
  Congestion link:0  Send queue max:0 avg:0

so in both cases no TX packets are accounted on the specific link, but with your
patch something is counted on the account of the broadcast link.

Best regards
Holger
