Sys::Statistics::Linux::SockStats - Collect linux socket statistics.

    use Sys::Statistics::Linux::SockStats;

    my $lxs  = Sys::Statistics::Linux::SockStats->new;
    my $stat = $lxs->get;

Sys::Statistics::Linux::SockStats gathers socket statistics from the virtual /proc filesystem (procfs).

For more information read the documentation of the front-end module Sys::Statistics::Linux.

Generated by /proc/net/sockstat.

    used    -  Total number of used sockets.
    tcp     -  Number of tcp sockets in use.
    udp     -  Number of udp sockets in use.
    raw     -  Number of raw sockets in use.
    ipfrag  -  Number of ip fragments in use (only available by kernels > 2.2).

Call new() to create a new object.

    my $lxs = Sys::Statistics::Linux::SockStats->new;

It's possible to set the path to the proc filesystem.

     Sys::Statistics::Linux::SockStats->new(
        files => {
            # This is the default
            path => '/proc',
            sockstat => 'net/sockstat',
        }
    );

Call get() to get the statistics. get() returns the statistics as a hash reference.

    my $stat = $lxs->get;

No exports.
