Hello,

I'm using suricata 4.1.2 with netmap. I am testing on both FreeBSD 11.2 and
FreeBSD 12.

My configuration is as below:

netmap:
  - interface: ix0
threads: 8
copy-mode: ips
copy-iface: ix0+
  - interface: ix0+
threads: 8
copy-mode: ips
copy-iface: ix0

But suricata opens 8 threads for ix0, but opens only 1 thread for ix0+
(sw_ring) interface.
Also i tried https://github.com/OISF/suricata/pull/3596 pull request. It
also behaves same.

I need to increase number of threads for ix0+ (sw_ring part) because of
throughput needs. Each thread can handle about 1.3Gbps. I want to reach to
10Gbps.

Is it possible to configure number of threads for ix0+ ?

Thank you. Regards
