Michal Purzynski commented on BIT-1363:
---------------------------------------
That is exactly what Suricata does
./src/runmode-af-packet.c: aconf->cluster_type = PACKET_FANOUT_HASH;
- PACKET_FANOUT_HASH: schedule to socket by skb's packet hash
> Clustered AF_PACKET support
> ---------------------------

> 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
>
> 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.
