Hi Mike
this kernel is not supported atm as we do not have a similar system in our lab,
are you able to provide access to this system or send us a patch?

Thank you
Alfredo

I tried it on a Fedora 23 system (kernel 4.6.4) and pf_ring compiles there,
but the ixgbe driver does not.

I'll upgrade to Fedora 23 so I can use pf_ring without the driver for now.

Hi Mike
I patched the ixgbe driver, it now supports latest kernels, I think it’s worth giving it a try.

Regards
Alfredo

I tried it with a new copy of the sources that I downloaded today, and it
still had the same problem compiling the ixgbe driver. I made this change to
kcompat.h and it compiled ok. I may not be able to test it until sometime
next week though.
