This is the old version of fakeARP which I developed to learn how to write a network driver. I think it may be valuable to other people trying to write Linux network drivers.

However I didn't know much about the Linux kernel, network drivers and network subsystem at the time. I didn't know about anything. So the code is informal and really bad.

I continue developing fakeARP as I learn more about kernel and network subsystem. This release is the initial version, things will get messy and complicated for beginners.
