I want to do that because I have to write a packet inspection module sort of idps solution. We are targeting kernel space because of performance. On Jan 29, 2016 12:09 AM, "Greg KH" <greg@kroah.com> wrote:

Hi All,
I have to write a kernel module in which I have to capture packets from 10g nic interface and make a copy of them.
Why do you want to do that?
I have two options Either use netfilters Either use add dev pack
What do you mean by this last choice?
If any options u thing please let me know.
Should the module be multi threaded?
Why would it be?
As I can't compromise with performance.
Can I bind kernel threads to specific core?
Yes, but are you sure you really want to do this in the kernel? Can't you do this today already from userspace?
thanks,
