I am not an expert on network stack, but your posting makes me eager to reply :) Anyway, what a coincidence..46..and it is a minimum of Ethernet frame? What do you think about this line? " memcpy(data, sahn_pb_alldata(pkt), sahn_pb_len(pkt));" does sahn_pb_len return 46? or maybe, another suspect...dev_queue_xmit(), isn't that a method included in net_device structure? is it valid to call it directly? or maybe the correct calling is dev->dev_queue_xmit()? Does dev_queue_xmit() handles retransmission too? Are you sure it handles that case (failure etc etc) correctly? personally, I suggest you to test your code inside Qemu or UML to ease debugging...since your code doesn't touch any specific driver code (operating at layer 2.5 ) i think you can easily migrate your code into UML or Qemu framework. regards Mulyadi -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
