[K42-discussion] Network subsystem tieins?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to tie in on the receive side  
of the network path? I have some network stack multiprocessing ideas  
that I'm thinking of prototyping in K42, and I think I see how I'd  
tie into the socket server interface on the sending side. However,  
it's less clear to me how I'd tie in on the receive side so that a  
different protocol, say a variant IP (I don't want to stomp on the  
existing TCP/NFS stack for obvious reasons), would go into my stack  
instead of into the standard Linux stack without me having to make  
somewhat substantial changes to the Linux code.

Suggestions?
