Build a fresh kernel and install it, with options BPF_ZEROCOPY if you want
zero-copy buffer support. Build and install a fresh libpcap.
+A new sysctl will be present, net.bpf.zerocopy_enable -- if it is set to 1
+(the default) then all new BPF sessions created by libpcap will use zero-copy
+support. If set to 0, new sessions will use buffered reads. The
+BPF_ZERO_COPY/BPF_ZEROCOPY environmental variables used in earlier prototypes
+have now been removed in favour of this model.
