which could use lseek() and were thus expensive due to system call
overhead. To avoid making a system call for every packet on a
sequential read, we maintained a data_offset field in the wtap structure
for sequential reads.
It's now a routine that just returns information from the FILE_T data
structure, so it's cheap. Use it, rather than maintaining the data_offset
field.
Readers for some file formats need to maintain file offset themselves;
have them do so in their private data structures.

by Wiretap, to indicate whether certain fields in that structure
actually have data in them.
Use the "time stamp present" flag to omit showing time stamp information
for packets (and "packets") that don't have time stamps; don't bother
working very hard to "fake" a time stamp for data files.
Use the "interface ID present" flag to omit the interface ID for packets
that don't have an interface ID.
We don't use the "captured length, separate from packet length, present"
flag to omit the captured length; that flag might be present but equal
to the packet length, and if you want to know if a packet was cut short
by a snapshot length, comparing the values would be the way to do that.
More work is needed to have wiretap/pcapng.c properly report the flags,
e.g. reporting no time stamp being present for a Simple Packet Block.

Use it for some file header problems for which it wasn't already being

For NetMon 1.x format, only claim to support millisecond resolution, as

Fix handling of negative time deltas in NetMon 2.x format.
When writing a NetMon file, trim the time of the first packet to

time written to the file (which has millisecond precision) is the same
as the start time used to calculate the deltas written to the packet

file_read(buf, bsize, count, file) macro is compilant with fread
function and takes elements count+ size of each element, however to make
it compilant with gzread() it always returns number of bytes.
In wiretap file_read() this is not really used, file_read is called
either with bsize set to 1 or count to 1.
Attached patch remove bsize argument from macro.

I've done more than a day to change the timestamp resolution from microseconds to nanoseconds. As I really don't want to loose those changes, I'm going to check in the changes I've done so far. Hopefully someone else will give me a helping hand with the things left ...
What's done: I've changed the timestamp resolution from usec to nsec in almost any place in the sources. I've changed parts of the implementation in nstime.s/.h and a lot of places elsewhere.
As I don't understand the editcap source (well, I'm maybe just too tired right now), hopefully someone else might be able to fix this soon.
Doing all those changes, we get native nanosecond timestamp resolution in Ethereal. After fixing all the remaining issues, I'll take a look how to display this in a convenient way...
As I've also changed the wiretap timestamp resolution from usec to nsec we might want to change the wiretap version number...

addition to an error code, an error info string, for
WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED, WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ENCAP, and
WTAP_ERR_BAD_RECORD errors. Replace the error messages logged with
"g_message()" for those errors with g_strdup()ed or g_strdup_printf()ed
strings returned as the error info string, and change the callers of
those routines to, for those errors, put the info string into the
printed message or alert box for the error.
Add messages for cases where those errors were returned without printing
an additional message.
Nobody uses the error code from "cf_read()" - "cf_read()" puts up the
alert box itself for failures; get rid of the error code, so it just
returns a success/failure indication.
Rename "file_read_error_message()" to "cf_read_error_message()", as it
handles read errors from Wiretap, and have it take an error info string
as an argument. (That handles a lot of the work of putting the info
string into the error message.)
Make some variables in "ascend-grammar.y" static.
Check the return value of "erf_read_header()" in "erf_seek_read()".

Assume that Ethernet encapsulated inside other protocols has no FCS, by
having the "eth" dissector assume that (and not check for an Ethernet
pseudo-header).
Have "ethertype()" take an argument giving the FCS size; pass 0 when
appropriate.

Add a new WTAP_ENCAP_ATM_PDUS_UNTRUNCATED encapsulation type for capture

Map the ATM capture file type for NetXRay captures to
WTAP_ENCAP_ATM_PDUS_UNTRUNCATED, and put in stuff to fill in what we've
reverse-engineered, so far, for the pseudo-header; there's more that
needs to be done on it, e.g. getting the channel, AAL type, and traffic
type (or inferring them if they're not in the packet header).
