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.

file_read(buf, bsize, count, file) macro is compilant with fread

In wiretap file_read() this is not really used, file_read is called

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.)

0 means "there is no FCS in the packet data", 4 means "there is an FCS

the packet data, guess based on the packet size".
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.
Fix up Wiretap routines to set the pseudo-header. This means we no

length of the packet, and the second two bytes are the captured length
of the packet. The old "length" value appears to be the captured length
of the packet as well; perhaps it's to be interpreted as the number of
bytes of data following the packet header (just in case there's padding,
for example).
Treat "ATM/", as an encapsulation string, as RFC 1483 ATM. (It may
actually be raw ATM, but the only capture I've seen had, in the parts I
saw, only RFC 1483 traffic LLC/SNAP traffic.)
There are 8 bytes in front of the LLC/SNAP header in ATM captures; skip
them, for now. (Perhaps they're a pseudo-header, giving VPI/VCI
information and stuff such as that? Or perhaps that's in the record
header?)

To work around this, we pass "file_seek()" an "int *err", and have the

the return value of "file_error()" is 0 and, if so, have it return

Have two X.25 dissectors, one of which assumes that there's a "struct

information in that pseudo-header to determine whether the packet is
DTE->DCE or DCE->DTE, and the latter assumes it has no clue whether the
packet is DTE->DCE or DCE->TDE. Use the former one in the LAPB
dissector, and the latter one in the XOT dissector and in the LLC

reading the capture file. Have callers of "wtap_snapshot_length()"
treat a value of 0 as "unknown", and default to WTAP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE (so
that, when writing a capture file in a format that *does* store the
snapshot length, we can at least put *something* in the file).
If we don't know the snapshot length of the current capture file, don't
display a value in the summary window.
Don't use "cfile.snap" as the snapshot length option when capturing -
doing so causes Ethereal to default, when capturing, to the snapshot
length of the last capture file that you read in, rather than to the
snapshot length of the last capture you did (or the initial default of
"no snapshot length").
Redo the "Capture Options" dialog box to group options into sections
with frames around them, and add units to the snapshot length, maximum
file size, and capture duration options, as per a suggestion by Ulf
Lamping. Also add units to the capture count option.
Make the snapshot length, capture count, maximum file size, and capture
duration options into a combination of a check box and a spin button.
If the check box is not checked, the limit in question is inactive
(snapshot length of 65535, no max packet count, no max file size, no max
capture duration); if it's checked, the spinbox specifies the limit.
Default all of the check boxes to "not checked" and all of the spin
boxes to small values.
Use "gtk_toggle_button_get_active()" rather than directly fetching the
state of a check box.

beginning of the file before reading anything from the file is bogus -
do that in the loop that tries each of the open routines, instead.
(They may have to reset the seek pointer later if, for example, the
capture file begins with the first packet, and the "open()" routine
looks at that packet to try to guess whether the packet is in the file
format in question.)
Set "wth->data_offset" to 0 while you're at it, so capture file readers
don't have to do that, either.

there's no need to keep it around in memory - when the frame data is
read in when handing a frame, read in the information, if any, necessary
to reconstruct the frame header, and reconstruct it. This saves some
memory.
This requires that the seek-and-read function be implemented inside
Wiretap, and that the Wiretap handle remain open even after we've
finished reading the file sequentially.
This also points out that we can't really do X.25-over-Ethernet
correctly, as we don't know where the direction (DTE->DCE or DCE->DTE)
flag is stored; it's not clear how the Ethernet type 0x0805 for X.25
Layer 3 is supposed to be handled in any case. We eliminate
X.25-over-Ethernet support (until we find out what we're supposed to
do).

and nettl captures - a "start" field is used for capture files where the
time stamps on packets are relative to some initial time stamp, e.g. the
time the capture started, but those file formats use absolute time
stamps, so no "start" field is needed.
Make the "this is an HP-UX 11.x nettl capture" flag a member of the
private data structure for a nettl capture, rather than a global - it's
per-capture-file state.
Once the "start" field is removed from the RADCOM private data
structure, there's nothing left, so eliminate the private data
structure.

from the frame table - Network Monitor 2.x, at least, doesn't always
write frame N+1 right after frame N.
To do that, we need to mallocate a big array to hold the frame table,
and free it when we close the capture file; this requires that we have
capture-file-type-specific close routines as well as
capture-file-type-specific read routines - we let it the pointer to that
routine be null if it's not needed. Given that, we might as well get
rid of the switch statement in "wtap_close()", in favor of using
capture-file-type-specific close routines, as per the comment before
that switch statement.

hideous problem on FreeBSD 3.[23] (and perhaps other BSDs) if
HAVE_UNISTD_H is defined before "zlib.h" is included, turn "file_seek()"
into a subroutine defined in a file that *undefines* HAVE_UNISTD_H
before including "zlib.h", so that the *only* call to "gzseek()" is made
from a file that does not have HAVE_UNISTD_H defined when it includes
"zlib.h".
Move "file_error()" to that file while you're at it, so it holds all the
wrappers that hide the presence or absence of zlib from routines to read
capture files.
Turn "file.h", which declared those wrapper functions as well as wrapper
macros, into "file_wrapper.h" - it belongs with the "file_wrapper.c"
file that defines the wrapper functions, not with "file.c" which handles
higher-layer file access functions.
Remove the comment in "configure.in" that explained why defining
HAVE_UNISTD_H was a bad idea, as we're not obliged to define it and work
around the problem. (The comment in "file_wrapper.c" explains the
workaround.)

header fields we don't look at - some implementations of the standard
I/O library routines (e.g., the ones in Solaris 2.5.1, at least) appear
not to be clever enough to handle seeks that occur within the buffer by
moving the current buffer position; instead, they do a seek on the
underlying file descriptor *and* appear to throw out the buffer, forcing
them to do another read.
Instead, read the entire record header into a structure, and pick the
relevant bits out of it.
Also, skip over the FCS in LAPB captures by reading it rather than
seeking around it (should we put it in the pseudo-header?).
