p.s. the gettimeofday syscall give some overhead to the sniffing code, but currently the text interface provided by the kernel is IMHO the real bottleneck.
Could you post a kernel-patch that fixes the worst problems with the interfaces without breaking libpcap? I'm thinking of the timestamp problem and the incomplete captures - so in case I want a complete capture or better timestamps I could just apply your patch and rebuild the kernel? thanks Joerg PS: OK, the timestamps have already been worked around and might not be doable withouth breaking the ABI but the capture thing should. -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer () loplof de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.
