Hello All,
I am working on a driver to collect some network statistics using pfil. I have set up
a bridge and set net.link.bridge.pfil_member=1 via sysctl. I have added hooks for
incoming and outgoing packets. I also put a third adapter into the system for
dev/managment purposes. My hooks are only being called for outgoing packets
on the management (non bridge) interface. I have been searching for information
about what I may have overlooked, but I can't find anything concrete. Is there
something else that I need to do to see packets on the bridge member interfaces
and incoming packets in general?
I'm using FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE.
struct pfil_head *pfh_inet;
pfh_inet = pfil_head_get(PFIL_TYPE_AF, AF_INET);
if(pfh_inet == NULL)
{
uprintf("ERROR: Cannot get pfil head\n");
return ENOENT;
}
pfil_add_hook(packets_in, NULL, PFIL_IN | PFIL_WAITOK, pfh_inet);
pfil_add_hook(packets_out, NULL, PFIL_OUT | PFIL_WAITOK, pfh_inet);
...
Thanks in advance,
Gerry
