I'm adding code for setting filtering rules in hardware, when the hw allows that. So you don't have to upgrade now that this work is in progress, but later on if you like that feature you need to. However I appreciate bug reports so I can fix bugs on not-so-recent kernels

Thanks 2010/1/30 Paul Wozney <paul [at] wozney>: Hello NTOP list, I'm not a programmer, but I managed to stumble upon what appears to be a missing header include in pf_ring.c. I pulled the latest SVN and it was failing to compile the kernel module, throwing this error: $ make make -C /lib/modules/2.6.28-17-generic/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel EXTRA_CFLAGS='-I/usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel -DSVN_REV="\"4110\""' modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-17-generic' CC [M] /usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel/pf_ring.o /usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel/pf_ring.c: In function ‘hw_filtering_rule’: /usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel/pf_ring.c:2194: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type /usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel/pf_ring.c:2196: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type /usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel/pf_ring.c:2202: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type make[2]: *** [/usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel/pf_ring.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [_module_/usr/src/apps/PF_RING/kernel] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-17-generic' make: *** [all] Error 2 I poked around line 2194 and 2196 and they both referenced ethtool. I added this to the end of the include section: (about line 75) #include <linux/ethtool.h> And now it compiles. I'm still a goodly distance from actually using pf_ring compiled tcpdump/ntop but at least I have a kernel module. I hope this helps someone!
