3 * NET3: 802.3 data link hooks used for IPX 802.3
5 * 802.3 isn't really a protocol data link layer. Some old IPX stuff
6 * uses it however. Note that there is only one 802.3 protocol layer
7 * in the system. We don't currently support different protocols
8 * running raw 802.3 on different devices. Thankfully nobody else
9 * has done anything like the old IPX.

23 * Place an 802.3 header on a packet. The driver will do the mac
24 * addresses, we just need to give it the buffer length.
