This pull request adds functionality to clear transmit (TX) statistics for network devices, ensuring both hardware and software counters are reset. The main changes involve introducing a new method to clear TX stats at the device level and integrating this capability into the TX counter object.
dev:clearTxStats()inlua/driver/ixgbe.luato clear hardware registers and reset software TX counters.devTxCounter:clearThroughput()inlua/stats.luato call the device's TX stats clearing method, and updatedmod:newDevTxCounter()to invoke this during initialization.Why is this necessary?
To obtain independent, correct statistics that are not influenced by the previous run.
