Program to test/use the 'low level Ethernet debugging features'

I'm attaching a small program I wrote to test the 'send custom fcs'
patches.  You can also test the rx-fcs and rx-all logic by making
sure that the NIC properly handles the packets with bad FCS.

For those that might have seen a previous version of this, I added
the ability to specify the dest mac address which means you don't
have to put the receiving NIC into PROMISC mode now.

Thanks,
Ben

/**  This tool can be used to send packets with custom (ie, bad) Ethernet
 * Frame Checksum.
 *
 * This requires the 'Low-level Ethernet debugging features.' patch series,
 * which supports e100, e1000, and e1000e drivers.  Support for igb and
 * hopefully ixgbe will be added soon.
 *
 * To compile:  gcc -Wall nofcs.c -o nofcs
 *
 * Usage:
 *  Send 10 packets out eth0 with bad FCS:
 *    ./nofcs -i eth0 -dm 00:11:22:33:44:55
 *
 * To receive the packets, you could use a version of ethtool that supports
 * the feature strings logic posted by Michal Miroslaw and enable 'rx-all'
 * and optionally: 'rx-fcs'.
 *
 * The patch for ethtool is posted here:
 *    http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/96374/
 *
 * This code was written by Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
 * and is hereby released into the public domain with no restrictions.
 * February 17, 2012.
