| |
a conf deadline is rapidly approaching, and I am stuck trying to open a raw socket in the kernel. I did build a small program to open a raw socket using socket(AF_INET,SOCK_RAW,IPPROTO_RAW) this seems to work and gives me the deisred behavior in the context of my program. i want this same function basically in the kernel. I tried sys_socket with the same parameters (and even placed some printks in the kernel to see what my app did), but i still can't get it to even create the socket.
when i run my app, i find that sys_socket(2,3,255) is what is called eventually. but i tried that to no avail.
Is there something else i need to do to get the raw socket. -OR- is there any other way to send a IP packet that i have populated myself?
thanks - ayman
