> I'm wondering how would it be possible then to fetch packets of an unknown size without using an extremely big buffer.

IP packets are limited to 64K, so just pass a 64K buffer, that's not
"extremely big".
If you really wanted to avoid this, you could try the FIONREAD ioctl,
but I wouldn't advise it.
