This directory contains two family of drivers: - PF_RING_aware/ Standard drivers that have been enhanced with PF_RING native support. These drivers support PF_RING ZC, they can be used as standard drivers, or in zero-copy mode (same as DNA) opening the device with the 'zc:' prefix (e.g. zc:eth1). Please note that opening the device in zero-copy mode disconnects it from the system. - DNA/ DNA (Direct NIC Access) drivers that allow applications to completely bypass the kernel and access the card directly for maximum speed. This means that an application sitting on top of the DNA driver can both send and receive packets only using the PF_RING API, with no general purpose networking (e.g. ping or web surfing) support. DNA drivers are limited to selected network adapters. Please check its availability prior to use them.
