The following code reads an IPv4 address from an input file which has an IPv4 address of a known web server on each line. It sends a TCP SYN with a PF_PACKET type socket. The main function launches two threads. One to send the TCP SYN packet and one thread to receive responses. The receive thread is blocking forever on recvfom call. This is not the desired behaviour. A screenshot of Wireshark capture shows that TCP SYN/ACK responses are being received by the machine:
So why isn't my program returning from recvfrom?
EDIT:
I include a cut down listing of the code below. MAC address and IP address and interface name are hard coded. You will have to change them to your setup to get the code to run.
