netmap_ring_reinit error
0%
Description
These errors had appeared in the past and were solved. After upgrading to v2.5.0, they have reappeared. I receive 100's (1000's) of these spaced one second to seconds apart, continually and non-stop-- until a restart and then usually begin again after some time. They are related to Suricata, I believe. The pfSense runs under ESXi 6.7.0 Update 3 (Build 16075168) and the interface is E1000e. Again, this issue was resolved with v2.4.5 p1 and has returned with v2.5.0.

I'm on ESXi 7. I only noticed the following, though I'm thinking it's some Suricata setting I need to tune for the interface.

I wonder if you switch to using vxnet if your errors continue.
