And OS X 10.8 tags some packets with the process ID and "process name" (first
16 bytes of the last component of the pathname of the executable) and exposes
that with private BPF extensions:

    http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-2050.7.9/bsd/net/bpf.h

(not in the public /usr/include/net/bpf.h).  That appears to be
TCP-and-UDP-only - and may only happen for outgoing packets (they may be the
only ones where the flow hash value is set, from a quick look.  That
information gets exposed by tcpdump in pcap-NG comments(!) if you specify the
-P flag to get tcpdump to write out pcap-NG files.

HoNe, on Linux:

adds kernel Netfilter hooks and uses them to capture traffic and associate
packets with processes.
