Any reason you need to turn them off now that read and write are fixed? If not, then I'll just roll yours into my tree so I pull them out in my standard patchset. > Are your BPF changes for better snooping to deal with 802.11 stuff? > Ethereal can deal with 802.11 packets.

My idea is that you should be able to set and ioctl to choose which level of decapsilation bpf reports (and, if possiable, sends) at.
