Package `raw` enables reading and writing data at the device driver level for a

network interface. MIT Licensed.

Deprecated: use

[`github.com/mdlayher/packet`](https://github.com/mdlayher/packet) on Linux

instead. This package is unmaintained.

For more information about using sockets with Ethernet frames in Go, check out

my blog post: [Network Protocol Breakdown: Ethernet and

Go](https://mdlayher.com/blog/network-protocol-breakdown-ethernet-and-go/).

## Unmaintained

This repository was one of my first major Go networking libraries. Although I

have updated it on Linux to incorporate modern Go best practices (asynchronous

I/O, runtime network poller integration), the non-Linux platform code is

effectively unmaintained and does not have the same level of functionality.

I encourage all Linux users of this package to migrate to

[`github.com/mdlayher/packet`](https://github.com/mdlayher/packet), which is a

modern `AF_PACKET` library. The existing `*raw.Conn` APIs now call directly into

the equivalent `*packet.Conn` APIs, and a level of indirection can be removed by

migrating to that package.
