w00t! Show me the 10Gbps PF_RING love!

Many thanks to Luca Deri and Silicom USA for graciously supplying me with a shiny new dual-port Intel® X520-based 10 Gigabit PE210G2i9-T accelerated packet-capture card.

Now I have all of the proper network security implements of destruction to support wire-speed zero-copy DMA PF_RING deep-packet inspection at 10Gbps:
root@token:~# lspci | cut -d':' -f3 | grep Gigabit
 Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 05)
 Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01)
 Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01)
 Intel Corporation 82599EB 10 Gigabit TN Network Connection (rev 01)
 Intel Corporation 82599EB 10 Gigabit TN Network Connection (rev 01)

root@token:~# dmesg | cut -d']' -f2 | grep NIC | grep dna
 igb: dna0 NIC Link is Up 1000 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: None
 ixgbe 0000:05:00.0: dna1: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX
Watch this space for more Ninja Master Packet Assassin™ goodness...
