Dear all this is to announce a patch on the 82599 (ixgbe) driver I have developed with the help of Joseph Gasparakis of Intel Shannon. Using this driver you can now set hardware filters (up to 32k filters) into the network adapter (not into the linux kernel), or prioritize traffic to selected RX queues. The enhanced driver is released free of charge as part of the PF_RING distribution (inside PF_RING/drivers/intel).
You can find more information about this work at this page, including download link, to http://www.ntop.org/blog/?p=192 Enjoy Luca and Joseph ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
