Raw (Ethernet) Sockets over io-net net stack on QNX 6.3.2  
Hi,

I am attempting to port an application to run under QNX version 6.3.2. 
The application makes use of the socket(AF_PACKET,SOCK_RAW,0) function call to allow it to create its own ethernet based
 protocol packets. It also makes use of QOS and VLANs in the extended ethernet header.

As far as I can see this functionality does not seem to exist in the io-net network stack include with 6.3.2 , so my 
question is what is the best approach I should take to migrate the application.

Do later version of QNX support this functionality? I know there is a new network stack;- io-pkt. Does this give me what
 I need, and because we are stuck as 6.3.2 is it possible to migrate this stack to run under 6.3.2?

Any ideas, suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Phil
