change, however if you run these tools from the source directory,
patch them or use them as Python modules your workflows may need to
be adapted.
- The AF_PACKET default block size for both TPACKET_V2 and TPACKET_V3
has been increased from 32k to 128k. This is to allow for full size
defragmented packets. For TPACKET_V3 the existing ``block-size``
parameter can be used to change this back to the old default of
32768 if needed. For TPACKET_V2 a new configuration parameter has
been added, ``v2-block-size`` which can be used to tune this value
for TPACKET_V2. Due to the increased block size, memory usage has
been increased, but should not be an issue in most cases.
- Datasets now have a default max limit for hashsize of 65536. This is
configurable via the ``datasets.limits`` options.
- For detect inspection recursion limits, if no value is provided, the default is
now set to 3000.
- AF_PACKET will now default to tpacket-v3 for non-inline modes, it
remains disabled for inline modes. To keep tpacket-v2 for non-inline
modes, the existing ``tpacket-v3`` configuration parameter can be
set to ``false``.
- AF_PACKET will now default to defrag off for inline mode with
``cluster_flow`` as its not recommended for inline use. However it
can still be enabled with the ``defrag`` configuration parameter.
- AF_PACKET now has better defaults:
