wtap_file_read_expected_bytes() from an open routine - open routines are
supposed to return -1 on error, 0 if the file doesn't appear to be a
file of the specified type, or 1 if the file does appear to be a file of
the specified type, but those macros will cause the caller to return
FALSE on errors (so that, even if there's an I/O error, it reports "the
file isn't a file of the specified type" rather than "we got an error
trying to read the file").
When doing reads in an open routine before we've concluded that the file
is probably of the right type, return 0, rather than -1, if we get
WTAP_ERR_SHORT_READ - if we don't have enough data to check whether a
file is of a given type, we should keep trying other types, not give up.
For reads done *after* we've concluded the file is probably of the right
type, if a read doesn't return the number of bytes we asked for, but
returns an error of 0, return WTAP_ERR_SHORT_READ - the file is
apparently cut short.
For NetMon and NetXRay/Windows Sniffer files, use a #define for the
magic number size, and use that for both magic numbers.

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

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
in the packet data", -1 means "I don't know whether there's an FCS in
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
longer use the "generic" seek-and-read routine, so get rid of it.

the internal z_err value for the stream if an "fseek()" call it makes

To work around this, we pass "file_seek()" an "int *err", and have the
with-zlib version of "file_seek()" check, if "gzseek()" fails, whether
the return value of "file_error()" is 0 and, if so, have it return

just an image of the ATM Sniffer data. This means that Ethereal doesn't
have to know any ATM Sniffer-specific details (that's all hidden in
Wiretap), and allows us to add to that pseudo-header fields, traffic
types, etc. unknown to ATM Sniffers.
Have Wiretap map VPI 0/VCI 5 to the signalling AAL - for some capture
files, this might not be necessary, as they may mark all signalling
traffic as such, but, on other platforms, we don't know the AAL, so we
assume AAL5 except for 0/5 traffic. Doing it in Wiretap lets us hide
those details from Ethereal (and lets Ethereal interpret 0/5 traffic as
non-signalling traffic, in case that happens to be what it is).
We may know that traffic is LANE, but not whether it's LE Control or
emulated 802.3/802.5; handle that case.

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

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

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).

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.)

dissector; I don't think it's guaranteed that even a Sniffer will tell
you that (there may be situations where it can't figure it out, and
where the user didn't tell it), we may need it for "atmsnoop" traffic
and other types of ATM traffic as well, we will probably want to add to
it the ability to let the user specify "virtual circuit X.Y is this kind
of traffic", and we may also have Ethereal try to intuit it based on
previous traffic in the capture (Q.2931 call setup, LANE traffic, etc.).
Don't show the cell count if it's zero - assume that means we don't know
how many cells made up the packet. Also don't show the AAL5 trailer if
the cell count is zero - the ATM Sniffer *might* sometimes supply a cell
count of 0 even if it has the AAL5 trailer, I guess, and we *might* see
some other capture file format that has the AAL5 trailer but no cell
count, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Add support for "atmsnoop" captures to the code to handle "snoop"
captures.
Use the field in "iptrace" headers that appears to be, in ATM captures,
a direction indicator - we may have the direction backwards, but, as an
STP packet was tagged as a DCE->DTE packet, and as the capturing
machine, which also was presumably the recipient of the packet, was an
AIX box, not a switch or bridge or some piece of networking equipment
such as that, it *probably* wasn't sending the STP packet, it was
probably receiving it.

<flo@rfc822.org> for the sample traces.
It turns out that the iptrace 2.0 header is simply an extension to
the iptrace 1.0 header. It also appears that iptrace 1.0 has only tv_sec, but
not tv_usec, which explains why the fields are separated in the iptrace 2.0
header, but doesn't explain why the iptrace 2.0 header has tv_sec copied
in two places.
I changed iptrace.c to detect FDDI captures via if_type, even though I
don't have a trace to substantiate this. If *should* work, given that
loopback, ethernet, token-ring, and X.25 work. If it doesn't work, someone
will let me know.
