From: Willem de Bruijn <will...@google.com> Allow programmable fanout modes. Support both classical BPF programs passed directly and eBPF programs passed by file descriptor.
One use case is packet steering by deep packet inspection, for instance for packet steering by application layer header fields. Separate the configuration of the fanout mode and the configuration of the program, to allow dynamic updates to the latter at runtime.
