Is this patch now integrated in Linux or just a personal patch for netkit ? |

The patch attached to this pull request introduces a number of hooks to IPv4 and IPv6 kernel modules. These hooks allow tracking various events relevant to network layer, such as packet creation, recieving and transmitting, fragmentation and reassembly, firewall filtering and address translation. Hooks are available to kernel modules, which can register an event handling function. Data collected from these hooks can be used in experimenting with IP protocol and Linux networking subsystem.
