aligned on an *odd-byte* boundary).

dynamically-assigned "ett_" integer values, assigned by
"proto_register_subtree_array()"; this:
obviates the need to update "packet.h" whenever you add a new
subtree type - you only have to add a call to
"proto_register_subtree_array()" to a "register" routine and an
array of pointers to "ett_", if they're not already there, and
add a pointer to the new "ett_" variable to the array, if they
are there;
would allow run-time-loaded dissectors to allocate subtree types
when they're loaded.

structure to "dl_src"/"dl_dst", "net_src"/"net_dst", and "src"/"dst"
addresses, where an address is an address type, an address length in
bytes, and a pointer to that many bytes.
"dl_{src,dst}" are the link-layer source/destination; "net_{src,dst}"
are the network-layer source/destination; "{src,dst}" are the
source/destination from the highest of those two layers that we have in
the packet.
Add a port type to "packet_info" as well, specifying whether it's a TCP
or UDP port.
Don't set the address and port columns in the dissector functions; just
set the address and port members of the "packet_info" structure. Set
the columns in "fill_in_columns()"; this means that if we're showing
COL_{DEF,RES,UNRES}_SRC" or "COL_{DEF,RES,UNRES}_DST", we only generate
the string from "src" or "dst", we don't generate a string for the
link-layer address and then overwrite it with a string for the
network-layer address (generating those strings costs CPU).
Add support for "conversations", where a "conversation" is (at present)
a source and destination address and a source and destination port. (In
the future, we may support "conversations" above the transport layer,
e.g. a TFTP conversation, where the first packet goes from the client to
the TFTP server port, but the reply comes back from a different port,
and all subsequent packets go between the client address/port and the
server address/new port, or an NFS conversation, which might include
lock manager, status monitor, and mount packets, as well as NFS
packets.)
Currently, all we support is a call that takes the source and
destination address/port pairs, looks them up in a hash table, and:
if nothing is found, creates a new entry in the hash table, and
assigns it a unique 32-bit conversation ID, and returns that
conversation ID;
if an entry is found, returns its conversation ID.
Use that in the SMB and AFS code to keep track of individual SMB or AFS
conversations. We need to match up requests and replies, as, for
certain replies, the operation code for the request to which it's a
reply doesn't show up in the reply - you have to find the request with a
matching transaction ID. Transaction IDs are per-conversation, so the
hash table for requests should include a conversation ID and transaction
ID as the key.
This allows SMB and AFS decoders to handle IPv4 or IPv6 addresses
transparently (and should allow the SMB decoder to handle NetBIOS atop
other protocols as well, if the source and destination address and port
values in the "packet_info" structure are set appropriately).
In the "Follow TCP Connection" code, check to make sure that the
addresses are IPv4 addressses; ultimately, that code should be changed
to use the conversation code instead, which will let it handle IPv6
transparently.

the base for numbers to be displayed in, bitmasks for bitfields, and blurbs
(which are one or two sentences describing the field).
proto_tree_add*() routines now automatically handle bitfields. You tell
it which header field you are adding, and just pass it the value of the
entire field, and the proto_tree routines will do the masking and shifting
for you.
This means that bitfields are more naturally filtered via dfilter now.
Added Phil Techau's support for signed integers in dfilters/proto_tree.
Added the beginning of the SNA dissector. It's not complete, but I'm
committing it now because it has example after example of how to use
bitfields with the new header_field_info struct and proto_tree routines.
It was the impetus to change how header_field_info works.

that the only options that contain *no* length byte are the IP and TCP
EOL and NOP options so that we can treat unknown options as
VARIABLE_LENGTH with a minimum of 2, and at least be able to move on to
the next option by using the length in the option, rather than just
reporting the unknown option and processing no options after it.

of option code, one octet of length (which includes the two option code
and length bytes), followed by 0 or more octets of option data, with
some options being fixed-length and some being variable-length. Put
some stuff from the PPP control protocol option parsing code into the
IP-and-TCP option parsing code, and use the latter instead of the
former.
(That code might also be usable for CDP as well, with some stuff added
to it.)
Shuffle the arguments to "dissect_ip_tcp_options()" to resemble those of
various other dissectors (i.e., with the "proto_tree *" at the end).
Add in code to dissect a pile of PPP options documented in various RFCs.

bunch of source files.
Replace the "payload" field of a "packet_info" structure with "len" and
"captured_len" fields, which contain the total packet length and total
captured packet length (including all headers) at the current protocol
layer (i.e., if a given layer has a length field, and that length field
says its shorter than the length we got from the capture, reduce the
"pi.len" and "pi.captured_len" values appropriately). Those fields can
be used in the future if we add checks to make sure a field we're
extracting from a packet doesn't go past the end of the packet, or past
the captured part of the packet.
Get rid of the additional payload argument to some dissection functions;
use "pi.captured_len - offset" instead.
Have the END_OF_FRAME macro use "pi.captured_len" rather than
"fd->cap_len", so that "dissect the rest of the frame" becomes "dissect
the rest of the packet", and doesn't dissect end-of-frame padding such
as padding added to make an Ethernet frame 60 or more octets long. (We
might want to rename it END_OF_PACKET; if we ever want to label the
end-of-frame padding for the benefit of people curious what that extra
gunk is, we could have a separate END_OF_FRAME macro that uses
"fd->cap_len".)

suggestion, this new method using a static array should use less memory
and be faster. It also has a nice side-effect of making the source-code
more readble, IMHO.
Changed the print routines to look for protocol proto_data instead of
looking at the text label as they did before, hoping that the data hex
dump field item starts with "Data (".
Added the -G keyword to ethereal to make it dump a glossary of display
filter keywords to stdout and exit. This data is then formatted with
the doc/dfilter2pod perl program to pod format, which is combined
with doc/ethereal.pod.template to create doc/ethereal.pod, from which
the ethereal manpage is created. This way we can keep the manpage up-to-date
with a list of fields that can be filtered on.

proto*() functions. The configure script tries to use ipv6 name resolution if
it knows the type of ipv6 stack the user has (this can be avoided with the
--disable-ipv6 switch) Additionally, the configure script now deals with wiretap
better. If the user doesn't want to compile wiretap, the wiretap is never
visited. A few unnecessary #includes were removed from some wiretap files, and
a CPP macro was moved from bpf.c to wtap.h.

reference the protocol tree with struct proto_tree and struct proto_item
objects. That way, the packet decoding source code file can be used with

some of the information in packet.h to more appropriate places (like other
packet-*.[ch] files).
