Packets from any/all interfaces may be queued up on the PF_PACKET socket before it is bound to the loopback interface by psock_tpacket, and when these are passed up by the kernel, they could interfere with the Rx tests. Avoid interference from spurious packet by blocking Rx until the socket filter has been set up, and the packet has been bound to the desired (lo) interface. The effective sequence is socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0); set up ring Invoke SO_ATTACH_FILTER bind to sll_protocol set to ETH_P_ALL, sll_ifindex for lo After this sequence, the only packets that will be passed up are those received on loopback that pass the attached filter.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
