Abstract:
Technologies for managing network statistic counters include a network interface controller (NIC) of a computing device configured to identify a statistic counter of and a software consumer associated with a received network packet and identify an active counter page as a function of the identified software consumer. The NIC is further configured to read a value of the statistic counter stored at a counter memory address of a corresponding counter identifier entry of the identified active counter page, increment a read value of the statistic counter, and write the incremented value of the statistic counter back to the counter memory address. Additionally, in response to detecting a notification triggering event, generating a notification message that includes a present value of the statistic counter and a present value of each of the other statistic counters of the active counter page, and transmit the generated notification message to the software consumer. Other embodiments are described herein.
