I think the answers I've seen are on the wrong track.  I believe Bill
just needs to know how to have his driver put the received packet on the
input queue for the IP module.  I don't know Xenix so I can't give an
exact answer, but in 4.[23] the device driver checks to see whether the
IP input queue is full and, if it isn't, places the new packet on the
queue and sets a bit or tickles a software interrupt so that the IP
module will examine its input queue in the near future.  Look for macros
or functions with names like IF_ENQUEUE or schednetisr.  (Then try to
guess how they work!)
