written shared library support.
Clean up some comments, and (for now) always use "$(CC) -shared" to
build shared libraries with GCC.
Merge two separate "check the platform and set the compiler options"
switches.
build "traditional" AIX shared libraries, which are archive libraries
containing shared objects, so, on AIX, we build the archive library, for
the benefit of "build libpcap and tcpdump in subdirectories of the same
directory, with tcpdump linked statically with that libpcap", but don't
install it. Newer versions of AIX, at least, also support "standard"
.so-style UN*X shared libraries, but we stick with
<Tevye>Tradition!</Tevye>.)
Fix an AIX build problem that shows up when building with GCC.
Clean up HP-UX stuff.
additional .o's to add to libpcap should go into ADDLOBJ, not V_LIBS.
Don't add -DHAVE_SEPTEL_API to V_DEFS - we add HAVE_SEPTEL_API to the
config.h file, which should be sufficient.
mac80211 devices will, regardless of whether they support the Wireless
Extensions - wmaster devices will let you turn monitor mode on but don't
appear to support the Wireless Extensions.
Support turning on monitor mode with libnl even if we don't have support
for the Wireless Extensions, just in case the Wireless Extensions go
away at some point in the future if every 802.11 device has a mac80211
driver.
a shared libpcap and add into the archive when making an archive
library. Make V_LIBS in the configure script, and LIBS in the Makefile,
a list of additional libraries with which to link a shared libpcap and
with which to link applications built with a non-shared libpcap.
linker, and include *BSD in the list of systems using GNU C and GNU ld.
Add support for building shared libraries on HP-UX (not yet tested).
Attempt to set the soname (or equivalent) appropriately when building a
shared library.
Build, and install, shared libraries by default.
Update config.guess and config.sub.
e-mail address while we're at it.
Use <fcntl.h> rather than <sys/file.h> in pcap-bpf.c - that's the right
header for open().
Don't include <sys/timeb.h> - it doesn't define anything that pcap-bpf.c
should need.
all devices on the bus, so we know what's out there already. Cleaned up
a bit to directly include <linux/usbdevice_fs.h> and *not* to require
the USB library just to supply a header with USB definitions.
<net/if.h>, in the hope that
1) doing so won't cause some problem somewhere
and
2) it'll have multiple-include protection
(this whole "glibc is a separate project from the kernel, so we'll
duplicate header files" thing has its downsides).
test without <net/if.h> failed, so that we don't just use the cached

kernel in general), <linux/wireless.h> includes <net/if.h> and you get
multiple-definition errors if you include <net/if.h> before it. When
checking for linux/wireless.h, try first without net/if.h and then with
net/if.h.
Currently if there are bluetooth.h headers installed in the system
libpcap will be built with bluetooth support and it's impossible to
disable it. Attached patch adds --{en,dis}able-bluetooth switches.
Also this patch makes use of AS_HELP_STRING to let autoconf manage
output layout.

Currently SITA will be defined and sita code will be tried to build even
if --without-sita is passed to ./configure. Patch in attachment fixes
this issue.
pcap-linktype man pages; it should be section 7 for UN*Xes using the
V7/BSD conventions (this includes *BSD, Linux, and Mac OS X), and
section 5 for UN*Xes using the System V conventions (this includes
Solaris and HP-UX, and possibly AIX).
before using that member.
Don't define variables if we aren't going to use them.
If we have an unknown tpacket version (this "can't happen"), return an
error.
handle" routine, an 'activate a pcap_t handle" routine, and some "set
the properties of the pcap_t handle" routines, so that, for example, the
buffer size can be set on a BPF device before the device is bound to an
interface.
Add additional routines to set monitor mode, and make at least an
initial attempt at supporting that on Linux, *BSD, and Mac OS X 10.4 and
10.5. (Very much "initial" for Linux, which is a twisty little maze of
wireless drivers, many different.)
Have a "timeout" member of the pcap_md structure on all platforms, use
that on Windows instead of the "timeout" member of the pcap_t structure,
and get rid of the "timeout" member of that structure.
move it into pcap-sita.c, and make --with-sita set the pcap type to
"sita", so we build pcap-sita.c instead of, rather than in addition to,
pcap-linux.c.
Use "bpf_u_int32" rather than "ulong" in the SITA code, as it's intended
to be 32 bits long (the "l" in "htonl()" and "ntohl()" is historical -
they work on 32-bit quantities, and the "l" dates back to the days when
32-bit processors were a bit newer and 16-bit Unix was more common).
Those changes also, at least in theory, makes the SITA support work on
other Unix-compatible platforms; note that in README.sita.
Clean up pcap-sita.c, making routines no longer called outside it
static, folding trivial wrappers, and fixing various warnings.
Put the routines used by fad-sita.c and defined by pcap-sita.c into
pcap-sita.h. Remove from pcap-sita.h the files that are now static to
pcap-sita.c. Include pcap-sita.h in both fad-sita.c and pcap-sita.c, so
that we do cross-file prototype checking.
if it does, use that for the pf definitions;
if it doesn't, don't compile in pf support;
as both OpenBSD and FreeBSD have changed the pf definitions and header
format without changing the DLT value, so you can't reliably read
pflog-format libpcap files on a machine running an OS version other than
the one on which the file was generated.

different behaviour of optimized and unoptimized code is less desirable.

pull in from NetBSD's libpcap: use cloning bpf device on NetBSD
Have the configure script check for paths.h, so that we can include it
only if we have it, and use the cloning BPF device only if we're on
NetBSD *and* _PATH_BPF is defined (hopefully this will keep us from
using it on versions of NetBSD that don't have a cloning BPF device; if,
in the future, other OSes with BPF get cloning BPF devices, we can make
this work for them as well).
Linux. The USB sniffing code for Linux now supplies a per-packet header
based on the one supplied by the Linux binary sniffing interface, so we
add a new DLT_ value and use that.
