* AF_PACKET socket acquisition support
*
- * Fanouts socket from David Miller:
- * we need to support the split of flow in different socket
- * option:
- * - packet_fanout type
- * - fanout ID ?? seems it could be useful
- * - protocol is the IEEE 802.3 protocol number in network order (filtering
- * is great)
- * - runmode -> family of threads in parallel (acccount)
- * - add a new ratio or threads number (overwritten by cpu_affinity)
- * - add af_max_read_packets for batched reading
- *
- * architecture
- * loop with read
- * code needed for iface name to int mapping
- * socket opening
- * socket call
- * bind
- * must switch to promiscous mode -> use PACKET_MR_PROMISC socket option
- *
* \todo watch other interface event to detect suppression of the monitored
* interface
