Is it possible to use the bpf filter with token ring?

It should be possible to do so *IF* you don't have any source-routed
packets; the BPF code generator currently does not generate code to
correctly handle variable-sized MAC headers, it just assumes no routing
information in Token Ring headers.

Are the packets that show up without the filter, but don't show up with
the filter, packets with source-routing headers?
