Kris Nielander commented on BIT-1363:
-------------------------------------
I believe the conditions for it to work depend a little bit too much on
libpcap. I would suggest removing it in favor of a separate af_packet plugin,
but do leave the pcap buffer patch in place.

> Key: BIT-1363
> URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1363
> Project: Bro Issue Tracker
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Bro
> Affects Versions: git/master
> Reporter: Michal Purzynski
> Attachments: pcap.c
>
>
> Let's have a support for packet capture with the AF_PACKET sockets in multi
> worker configuration.
> Bro can use a single worker with af_packet, I have tested and it works, but
> having a direct support for multi-worker load balancing would allow to avoid
> the pf_ring for many deployments with the traffic level where DNA / ZC /
> Myricom / DAG is not required.
