Hi All,

I am the author of icmp-exporter. I was hoping to get some feedback on it before I submit a PR to add it to the docs.

> ICMP exporter for prometheus efficiently detects path issues by asynchronously sending pings to probe endpoints. Utilizing network cards hardware timestamping features to eliminate scheduling and kernel-related uncertainties, achieving precision to the nearest microsecond. 

Despite the name, icmp exporter also does tcp syn pings. I never really expected to add that functionality when it was first being developed. 

What I am looking for:
Thanks for your time,
~ Clayton Singh
