+Subject: [PATCH] Remove support for SOCK_PACKET sockets
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+The current code has a build-time check to verify that PF_PACKET sockets
+are supported on Linux systems and if not, fallback on SOCK_PACKET sockets.
+
+The test implementation relies on FTM (Feature Test Macros) to detect
+glibc and its version to include correct headers.
+But, some libc such as the musl libc do not have such macros, making the
+test program compilation fail and libnet fallback on SOCK_PACKET.
+
+Since PF_PACKET support is present in kernel for more than 20 years now,
+the simplest solution and safe choice is to just drop support for
+SOCK_PACKET and assume PF_PACKET is always available on any Linux system.
