Re: [lwip-users] Port to raspberry pi 3

Hi, Simon

Thanks a lot, I am actually trying pcap right now according to your suggestions in some early email.  

For me it is fine if I can not see the packets sent by linux host..

So you want to test lwIP's performance on raspi by executing it on linx first?

I would have thought lwIP's performance gets worse by adding linux...

Linux is a bit tricky here. On windows, we use winpcap to do that. On linux, you
can use pcap or raw sockets, but a) both are not supported on all platforms and
b) you don't see packets sent by the linux host you are running on (at least not
for pcap, I'm not 100% sure for raw sockets).
