Network protocol stacks are an important ingredient of today's infrastructure software. For instance, all state-of-theart operating systems for PCs and the server market come with a TCP/IP stack. The design of protocol stacks and their layered structure has been studied for decades. However, in practice, implementations often do not follow the clean textbook design consequently. This especially holds for the domain of embedded TCP/IP stacks where minimal resource consumption is crucial.
