BIRD on HW ASIC

[Роман Вартичан]

Hello!
We are going to implement BIRD on HW ASIC platform. We try to understand how to 
untie bird from linux kernel and route its netlink or unix socket commands to 
ASIC driver (we carefully studied mail list, but did not find any info about 
this). We see that ioctl in BIRD will be deprecated in near future. Could you 
kindly clarify which is the best way of connecting of BIRD with proprietary 
hardware driver which runs in user space?
