Announce: PF_RING 4.0 (no kernel patching required)
|
|
Dear all
this is to announce the release of PF_RING 4.0. Due to popular demand
I have finally managed to build a new release of PF_RING that can be
built on top of a vanilla kernel (please remember to download kernel
source, that in general are available as package from your favorite
Linux distribution) without patching the kernel as with PF_RING 3.0.
This I think is a big improvement as those of you who have not yet
adopted PF_RING due to kernel patching, can now finally use and enjoy
it.
As this is the first 4.x release, I believe there are still some
issues that need to be addressed. Please report any problem you might
experience.
IMPORTANT: if you plan to use 4.0 on a *patched kernel* this is not a
good idea as you will receive packets twice. Please use 4.0 with a
vanilla kernel and not with a patched kernel.
Enjoy Luca
