LWN.net Weekly Edition for June 13, 2013
A report from pgCon 2013
It was introduced six years ago, with this commit:
r153151 | jkim | 2005-12-06 03:58:12 +0100 (Tue, 06 Dec 2005) | 17 lines
Add experimental BPF Just-In-Time compiler for amd64 and i386.
Use the following kernel configuration option to enable:
options BPF_JITTER
If you want to use bpf_filter() instead (e. g., debugging), do:
sysctl net.bpf.jitter.enable=0
to turn it off.
Currently BIOCSETWF and bpf_mtap2() are unsupported, and bpf_mtap() is partially supported because 1) no need, 2) avoid expensive m_copydata(9).
Obtained from: WinPcap 3.1 (for i386)
