30 This header defines an API to interact with protocols in the kernel.
31 The KPIs in this header file can be used to interact with protocols
32 that already exist in the stack. These KPIs can be used to support
33 existing protocols over media types that are not natively supported
34 in the kernel, such as ATM.
