Subject: Writing a kernel module
I've been looking, so far in vain, for some kind of guidelines about how
I would go about writing a kernel module for FreeBSD. What I need to do is
more or less what a firewall or a router does, ie intercept packets at the
lowest level inside IP and either return them to the stack if I don't want
them, or forward them to some other IP address if I do want them. If anyone
could point me to a place where this jewel of rather fundamental information
resides, I'd be very grateful.
