[Oisf-devel] pfring_autofp broken in latest git master

[Chris Wakelin]

Just trying the latest git master (as I generally do :)) and found my
Suricata wouldn't start:

> suricata --pfring-int=eth2 --pfring-cluster-id=99 --pfring-cluster-type=cluster_flow -c /etc/suricata/suricata.yaml
> [22778] 11/4/2011 -- 15:25:25 - (suricata.c:554) <Info> (main) -- This is Suricata version 1.1beta1 (rev 663d03c)
> [22778] 11/4/2011 -- 15:25:25 - (util-cpu.c:171) <Info> (UtilCpuPrintSummary) -- CPUs/cores online: 4
> [22778] 11/4/2011 -- 15:25:25 - (util-ioctl.c:80) <Info> (GetIfaceMTU) -- Failure when trying to get MTU via ioctl: 19

I like the new options to choose runmode, and the descriptions that go
with them. It works if I use "--runmode=auto" (which seems to be the
default) but not "--runmode=autofp". BTW can the default be made
explicit somewhere, and maybe log which runmode is being used?

Best Wishes,
Chris
