Add experimental BPF Just-In-Time compiler for amd64 and i386.
Use the following kernel configuration option to enable: options BPF_JITTER If you want to use bpf_filter() instead (e. g., debugging), do: sysctl net.bpf.jitter.enable=0 to turn it off. Currently BIOCSETWF and bpf_mtap2() are unsupported, and bpf_mtap() is partially supported because 1) no need, 2) avoid expensive m_copydata(9). Obtained from: WinPcap 3.1 (for i386)
