Hello,

I am working on an embedded system and would like to implement a PF_PACKET/SOCK_RAW with packet filtering. The objective is to create a filter based on a family of destination MAC addresses. Can anyone provide sample code which does this without the aid of the PCAP library? A previous posting suggested looking at tcpdump for an example of BPF but the current version seems to be PCAP based.

Documentation or a pointer to source code to explain linux/filters.h filter operations may be enough to get me over the hump.

TIA
