(In reply to Gleb Smirnoff from comment #12)
Normally the kernel does fragmentation for raw IP packets. So I would prefer to
keep that. But can't we check that the length provided in the send call matches
the length in the IP header. If there is a mismatch, return an error to the
user (indicating EINVAL)? That way the user gets an indication that some
information was inconsistent.
