Basically you will need to fill in headers and data in a ip-packet. There are some examples here on how to send raw ethernet packets: :http://austinmarton.wordpress.com/2011/09/14/sending-raw-ethernet-packets-from-a-specific-interface-in-c-on-linux/

To handle TCP/IP on your own, i think that you might need to disable the TCP driver in a custom kernel, and then write your own user space server that reads raw ip.

It's probably not that efficient though...
