The closest to what RK need, is nfm-nraw.so, which provides “nraw” support.
But it is not a released software, last I know, it only exist in “Network
Edition” >
I do not have that version. Are you saying that:
a) Yes, it’s possible to write what you want, just a little more complicated
than what you are suggesting, or
b) It is not possible to write what you want unless you have the NE version.
?
If (A), then I’d certainly be happy to take a stab at it; I’m assuming I’ll have
to get “right in” to io-net though…

I heard there is a port of Berkeley Packet Filter for QNX though I never
used it. Looks like you want to find/install the BPF and, in this case,
you should read docs for this software and programming of BPF provided
interface (fortunately there is lot of it on internet).

A naive question – what docs should I read in order to be able to
receive and transmit type XXXX ethernet packets? I’ve glanced through
the io-net docs, and am a little leary about doing a “full” io-net
interface; I was kind of hoping that I could, as a separate process,
just “attach” to en0 and request type XXXX ethernet packets to be
sent to me via something simple like read() and be able to write()
those same packets out the ethernet port. Too naive? >
