            Bug ID: 1379431
           Summary: PCP network.interface.speed values are inaccurate
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 24
         Component: pcp
          Assignee: nathans@xxxxxxxxxx
          Reporter: wcohen@xxxxxxxxxx
        QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
                CC: brolley@xxxxxxxxxx, fche@xxxxxxxxxx, lberk@xxxxxxxxxx,

Description of problem:

The expected values of network.interface.speed for the gigabit ethernet on a
laptop (Lenovo thinkpad W530)  look way off from the expected values.  Not
having reasonable values for this metric makes it very difficult to determine
the network interface utilization.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

$ rpm -q pcp
pcp-3.11.4-1.fc24.x86_64
$ uname -a
Linux santana 4.7.4-200.fc24.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Sep 15 18:42:09 UTC 2016 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

How reproducible: Every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install pcp on fedora 24
2.  pmval network.interface.speed


Actual results:

$ pminfo -d network.interface.speed

network.interface.speed
    Data Type: float  InDom: 60.3 0xf000003
    Semantics: discrete  Units: Mbyte / sec

$ pmval network.interface.speed

metric:    network.interface.speed
host:      santana
semantics: discrete instantaneous value
units:     Mbyte / sec
samples:   all

       wlp3s0            lo    virbr0-nic        virbr0         vnet0          
em1       docker0 
       2.146              ?     7.813E+04             ?     7.813E+04    
7.813E+06             ? 
       2.146              ?     7.813E+04             ?     7.813E+04    
7.813E+06             ? 


Expected results:

Would expect the results to be more like the rhel7 on a W541 machine like the
following (enp0s25 interface):

$ rpm -q pcp
pcp-3.10.6-2.el7.x86_64
[wcohen@dhcp129-2 ~]$ uname -a
Linux dhcp129-2.rdu.redhat.com 3.10.0-482.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Aug 1 10:31:16
EDT 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$  pmval network.interface.speed

metric:    network.interface.speed
host:      dhcp129-2.rdu.redhat.com
semantics: discrete instantaneous value
units:     Mbyte / sec
samples:   all

      enp0s25            lo    virbr0-nic        virbr0 
     119.2                ?        1.192              ?
