Hi all,

I am new to PF_RING here, but Im very interested in it :). Recently I am
working on a packet processing project which based on ovs (openvswitch), so
I wonder if it is suitable to caputre/send on a virtual network interface,
like veth, with PF_RING framework?

Before I post this issue, I have already tested the combination of veth and
PF_RING, it seems work :), however, performance of sending packets is not
so well, as I known, rx traffic is sent from kernel to userspace by mmap
and ring buffer, but tx traffic is just sent by syscall "sendto".

So my questions are:

1. If it suitable to receive/send packets on veth with PF_RING?
2. If question 1's answert is positive, then how can I promote the
performance of packet sending?

Thanks a lot.
