Hi,

I'm a little confused by what scan world means? Can you elaborate on 
what you mean by that? 

I'm sure there could be a way to inject (or intercept) raw packets 
to/from the driver (most likely through the ioctl interface). However, 
they would still need to go through the transmit chain (i.e., DMA'ed to 
the hardware, handled using the QCU/DCU interface and forwarded to the 
PCU for transmission). So, I'm not sure injecting packets in this way 
would improve things. Am I missing something?

Thanks very much for the feedback.

Best,

Nabeel.
