You could use the arpd user mode solution. In recent kernels ARP is implemented as a neighboring cache.
You can use dev_add_pack() in a module to receive arp requests (like __initfunc does in arp.c)
--- static struct packet_type arp_packet_type = { __constant_htons(ETH_P_ARP), NULL, /* All devices */ arp_rcv, NULL, NULL };
__initfunc(void arp_init (void)) { neigh_table_init(&arp_tbl); dev_add_pack(&arp_packet_type); ... ---
Greetings Bernd
