Michal Purzynski commented on BIT-1363:
---------------------------------------

How are you testing it?

Question: would the conn_state = SF and history = ShADadfR if packets went two 
different processes, each direction? I think not, and I use currently a 
clustered AF_PACKET on a stage system (bro-master) and that's how my 
connections look like.

Also, more "traditional' IDS like Suricata work really well with AF_PACKET 
clustering and yes, they are doing session reassembly - and each thread gets 
both directions.

Have you enabled clustering, actually?

> 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.
