          For purpose of fast trnsactions for performing parallel programming using message passing, I am trying to bypassthe TCP/IP stack overall. since my network is going to be small and isolated, It is not going to create problem. How can I bypass the TCP/IP stack inbuilt in the kernel (system calls) and use direct ethernet.
