That's because this is not the right group for your question.

You need to use raw Ethernet.   You can either do that through a
conventional raw Ethernet socket (SOCK_RAW)  and have it work across any
Ethernet hardware  or use a NIC proprietary API such as solarflare
offer.

OFED is really not the right choice for the problem you are trying to
solve, and therefore this list is not the right list for your question.

I suggest you look at the many tutorials about programming with SOCK_RAW
or start contacting the NIC vendors.
