    Hello,
                     I want to add my own protocol in kernel network
    stack. so i analyze the kernel code and i found that new protocols are
    added with dev_add_pack() function. But i am confuse about how to
    declare my own protocol in instance of packet_type like one defined
    for IP packet
    static struct packet_type ip_packet_type =
    {
            __constant_htons(ETH_P_IP),
            NULL, /* All devices */
            ip_rcv,
            (void*)1,
           NULL,
    };

    How/where to get/write own protocol ID like ETP_P_IP nad what should
    be its protocol number? and can i define other fields NULL in my
    packet type same as in IP packet type structure?
    regards,
