Hello, I want to broadcast all packets to all the nodes on my LAN, because I put some information on alle the packets that all the nodes need. When I used a hub, this was done by setting the NIC's in promiscous mode, and it worked fine. But now I have to do the same thing with a switch, and the only solution I found is to broadcast all the packets, and recognize them in the NIC driver. My question is: When I receive a packet by broadcast, and I find out that the packet is ment for this node, how do I send the packet up to the IP-layer? Which part of the sk_buff has to be changed so the kernel recognize it as a normal unicast packet when I call netif_rx()? I want to do the approriate changes to the skb, and then call netif_rx() as usual.
