net: dccp: Add SIOCOUTQ IOCTL support (send buffer fill)
This adds support for the SIOCOUTQ IOCTL to get the send buffer fill of a DCCP socket, like UDP and TCP sockets already have. Regarding the used data field: DCCP uses per packet sequence numbers, not per byte, so sequence numbers can't be used like in TCP. sk_wmem_queued is not used by DCCP and always 0, even in test on highly congested paths. Therefore this uses sk_wmem_alloc like in UDP. Signed-off-by: Richard Sailer <richard_siegfried@systemli.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
