If you run a rump kernel on top of dpdk, hijacking the normal tcpdump binary against the rump kernel should work in theory. I say "in theory" because: 1) the rump kernel dpdk driver not contain support. ok, it's literally two lines of code, but it's still currently theoretical 2) there might be some disagreement with ioctl's and bpf format between the Linux userland and NetBSD kernel, requiring some further hacking Of course, if you don't want TCP/IP at all, the benefit is also theoretical ;) - antti
