BPF filtering?

[0b01]

Does it support bpf filters?

Not right now. There is currently no filtering in place besides the various verbose modes that rely on parsing the packets.

Even though the pcap crate supports it, I'm planning to migrate to pnet eventually (#44), which doesn't support bpf filtering yet, but may have it in the future.

Sorry for that, but I hope it answers your question.

To fully understand your usecase, are you interested in applying your own raw bpf filters or would a higher level filtering language that compiles to bpf work for you as well?

Bpf compiler is a part of libpcap so it is unreasonable to oxidize that entire code base. Applying raw bpf filter is the bottom if you want pure rust.
