Your protocol would implement a new socket type so the entry function would be in your protocol, it would add its header and then send call ICMP to handle the data further. I am not sure though how to get incoming packets to pass through your protocol handler. You should probably look at the specs or the code for incoming packets to see how the kernel is aware of the next protocol layer, you may need to modify the ICMP code for that.
