Correct. I think that CRC(or mCRC for preemption) is also important and I
would like to add it too. So finally we have:
Preamble with SFD | Mac header | Payload | CRC/mCRC

OK, I'm moving the discussion to tcpdump-workers.

2. I'd like to have completely separate LinkType number and this is not
LINKTYPE_ETHERNET, because preamble must be shown

So for the new link-layer header type will the frame begin with metadata
indicating the frame type, followed by, preamble/SFD bytes, followed by the
MAC header, rather than beginning with the MAC header, without the preamble
and SFD bytes as LINKTYPE_ETHERNET frames do?
