This was intentionally kept simple (matches the philosophy of Arch).
In particular I wasn't so concerned about what is a required build
dependency and what is an optional build dependency to compile the
programs. I don't know why one would ever wish to skip installation
of non-essential library dependencies. But others are very welcome
to extend this intentionally barebones effort.
The script also adds an "--install-all" flag to install everything
at once. I keep forgetting the name of the other options.
I used the build optional flag to install packages required to build
documentation and so on. Ancillary stuff.
PCRE2 is the future of PCRE. The only advantage of GRegex is that
it comes bundled with GLib, which is not an advantage at all.
PCRE2 is widely available, the GRegex abstractions layer are not a
good fit and abstract things that don't need abstracting or that we
could handle better ourselves, there are open bugs (#12997) and
maintenance is spotty at best.
GRegex comes with many of the problems of bundled code, aggravated by
the fact that it completely falls outside of our control.
The header ftypes-int.h should not be used outside of epan/ftypes
because it is a private header.
The functions fvalue_free() and fvalue_cleanup() need not and should
not be macros either.
Remove a duplicated argument to fix a warning:
Wrong number of arguments for string format.
Format ptvcursor_add(cursor, hf_skinny_%s, 6, ENC_NA);
takes 1, but 2 are provided.
Add tname as argument to Type eth_type_default_body() to fix a warning.
Call to method Type.eth_type_default_body with too many arguments;
should be no more than 1.
Add ID count sanity checks and make sure we don't update pci-ids.c
unless the checks pass. Fix a bunch of Pylint warnings. Strip leading
whitespace from our output strings.
I found that SkinnyProtocolOptimized.xml and packet-skinny.c.in are not in
sync with packet-skinny.c. Obviously packet-skinny.c file was modified
multiple times manually.
I made changes:
- synced all typos fixed in packet-skinny.c to SkinnyProtocolOptimized.xml
- improved parse_xml2skinny_dissector.py to be able to generate
additional information to flow sequence
- updated SkinnyProtocolOptimized.xml to mark where to generate
additional information
If fact the outcome is just refactoring of original code.
Asterix data format is a complex family of asterix categories,
where each individual category exists in multiple editions.
As a result of many variants, the epan/dissectors/packet-asterix.c
is one of the largest dissectors.
So far, the asterix dissector had been maintained manually, where the
generic decoding routines and category/edition specific definitions
were entangled in the same file (packet-asterix.c).
This commit preserves the overall dissector structure, but makes
it easy to update the dissector with new categories or editions as
they become available (via the update script from this commit).
See tools/asterix/README.md file for dissector update procedure.
This commit includes:
- tools/asterix/packet-asterix-template.c
Extraction of generic asterix decoding routines and
common data structures.
- tools/asterix/update-specs.py
Update script, to render the template with up-to-date asterix
specs files. The asterix specs files themselves are maintained in
a separate repository.
- epan/dissectors/packet-asterix.c
Automatically generated dissector for asterix data format.
Although generated, this file needs to remain in the repository,
to be able to build the project in a reproducible way.
The generated asterix dissector was additionally tested with:
- ./tools/check_typed_item_calls.py --mask
- ./tools/fuzz-test.sh
Sync with asterix-specs #cef694825c

Asciidoctor is now required for packaging. Try to make sure it's
installed on CentOS 8 and openSUSE 15.2. Note that CentOS 8 doesn't have
an Asciidoctor package, which complicates our SPEC.
Convert doc/*.pod to Asciidoctor. This:
* Means we use the same markup for our man pages, the guides, and
release notes.
* Lets us add versions to our man pages.
* Gives us more formatting options, e.g. AsciiDoc supports `commands`,
nested lists and makes it easy to include version information. The
manpage backend doesn't seem to support tables very well,
unfortunately.
Convert our CMake configuration to produce *roff and html man pages
using Asciidoctor. Add a "manarg" block macro which makes our synopses
wrap correctly.
Similar to the release notes, guides, and FAQ, if Asciidoctor isn't
found the man pages won't be generated or installed.
Move Asciidoctor to the list of package build dependencies in various
places.
This commit includes the conversion script (pod2adoc.py), which will be
removed later.

Implement little endian support for tvb_get_bits family of functions.
The big/little endian refers to bit numbering within an octet. In big
endian, the most significant bit is considered bit 0, while in little
endian the least significant bit is considered bit 0.
Add encoding parameters to proto tree bits format family functions.
Specify ENC_BIG_ENDIAN in all dissectors using these functions except in
USB HID that requires ENC_LITTLE_ENDIAN to work correctly.
When formatting bits values, always display most significant bit on the
leftmost position regardless of the encoding. This results in no gaps
between octets and makes the displayed value comprehensible.

Besides the obvious limitation of being unavailable on Windows,
the standard is vague about getopt() and getopt_long() has many
non-portable pitfalls and buggy implementations, that increase
the maintainance cost a lot. Also the GNU libc code currently
in the tree is not suited for embedding and is unmaintainable.
Own maintainership for getopt_long() and use the musl implementation
everywhere. This way we don't need to worry if optreset is available,
or if the $OPERATING_SYSTEM version behaves in subtly different ways.
The API is under the Wireshark namespace to avoid conflicts with
system headers.
Side-note, the Mingw-w64 9.0 getopt_long() implementation is buggy
with opterr and known to crash. In my experience it's a headache to
use the embedded getopt implementation if the system provides one.
