Just FYI, I would normally do this by writing back out to BPF on the
interface you're "teeing" to, perhaps with some rewriting of the ethernet
layer header. Since I don't have a big picture of what your application
is actually doing, I can't speak to the details there :-).

Hmm. I'm not 100% sure that this is correct. When you don't set
IP_HDRINCL, the raw IP output code will indeed do the route lookup on the
requested address, as well as insert an IP header that includes the
requested address. However, when you use IP_HDRINCL to provide your own
IP address, I believe that the target address argument to sendto() will be
ignored, and the address in the IP header you provide used as the
destination instead. What could well be happening is that you're
re-injecting the packet at the IP forwarding layer, and it is being
forwarded to the original destination IP (possibly localhost) and
processed as a dup packet. I.e., you are making copies of the packet, but
they're not being sent where you think. If you're sniffing packets
destined for the local IP, you might well be able to see the tee'd packets
by running tcpdump on lo0.

Are you sure you need to do this? I thought BPF/PCAP provided those
fields in network byte order already, in which case you shouldn't need to
touch these fields unless you need to adjust them.
Also, I notice that you don't appear to be initializing the 'sin_len'
field of struct sockaddr_in, which should be set to sizeof(to) when you
initialize the structure.
Generally speaking, the notion of "tee" is a little poorly defined. I
think what you want to do is what I suggest above -- use BPF to write the
packet out another interface, and do the link layer routing yourself,
rewriting packet header fields if you want to. That is, basically write
the new target ethernet address into the BPF layer ethernet header, and
write it out on a BPF device attached to the network interface you're
teeing to. This will leave all the IP layer stuff intact. I've
previously written a BPF layer bridging application that uses this
technique to do filtered bridging and stateful TCP transformation in user
space. You don't get the performance of the kernel, but it's a lot easier
to debug. One caution: be careful of bridging loops and the like.
If you do mean to be changing the IP layer addresses, remember that you'll
need to recalculate header checksums for IP, TCP/UDP, etc. If you change
any other IP layer fields, you may need to just recalculate the IP layer
checksum.
