      I have been working on a ULOG support (netlink socket) support in

header should I generate? should I create something like those 'cooked' 
packets?

That depends on the information supplied by the netlink stuff.  I
presume you get raw network-layer (IP, IPv6, IPX, etc.) packet data from
it.  It probably also supplies an indication of the network-layer
protocol, and perhaps other information.  What information does it
supply?
