bad counter for ixg* interfaces

[6bone%6bone.informatik.uni-leipzig.de@localhost]

Hello,

ifconfig -v ixg0 shows:

ixg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        capabilities=fff80<TSO4,IP4CSUM_Rx,IP4CSUM_Tx,TCP4CSUM_Rx>
        capabilities=fff80<TCP4CSUM_Tx,UDP4CSUM_Rx,UDP4CSUM_Tx,TCP6CSUM_Rx>

        address: a0:36:9f:d4:3c:08
        media: Ethernet autoselect (10GbaseSR full-duplex,rxpause,txpause)

        output: 10573554 packets, 0 bytes
	...


The outgoing packets are counted correctly. The outgoing bytes remain at 
0.

Kernel version: NetBSD 7.99.70. Older Versions have the same problem.

Programs like the snmpd which the counter evaluate provide wrong data.

Maybe someone can take a look at the code.



Thank you for your efforts
