A packet can be sent out on the network by writing to a bpf file descrip- tor. The writes are unbuffered, meaning only one packet can be processed per write. Currently, only writes to Ethernets and SLIP links are sup- ported. I also have a need to write raw IP packets (as well as read them independent of interface hardware). I'm finding that raw sockets do not behave at all as documented. Is there a resource somewhere that explains how they really work on Darwin/Mac-OS?
