Don't get me wrong - it's not hard, and I've done it already, it's just 
that I felt there could/should be an ioctl for it :)

Onto another subject: despite the recommendations (thanks!) I wanted to 
try the non-bpf,non-ng approach to things (if I fail it'll be a 
lesson...). I'm stuck at square one: despite that many other things seem 
to work, the most basic part fails:

sock = socket(PF_LINK, SOCK_RAW, /*htons(ETH_P_EAPOL)*/ 0);

it fails with errno 43: Protocol not supported (with either EAPOL or 0 
for protocol). My question is: how is PF_LINK meant to be used?


(and, if I'm bothering this list with such questions, please suggest 
another :) )
