It'll give you a start in understanding how the packet traverses the stack.http://media.wix.com/ugd//295986_a3dcb13a2f46d15cb75abab021a239da.pdf

Hi All,I want to first understand and then write a network driver for simple Ethernet device (actually instead of inbuilt network driver i want to run my network driver).Actually the new driver should have PF_RING enable/support and Net filter usage.Although we can copy the driver too but i want to understand some driver and write my own so that i get clear understanding about network driver.Now can you please help me how should i proceed?First should i see how the packet flows in the kernel or how should i go and please provide some good links to study.Thanks
