Description

We track FEC stats for switch data links from the Tofino in oximeter today. This tracks adding similar timeseries for recording the Chelsio's information about FEC state and errors.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing oximeter timeseries that track FEC statistics for Tofino switch data links. Read how those statistics are collected and represented, then identify the corresponding Chelsio FEC state and error information for sled data links. Done means equivalent Chelsio FEC state and error timeseries are recorded alongside the existing switch-link statistics.
