Add an option to text2pcap to specify the encapsulation type
via wiretap encapsulation type short names instead of pcap
link layer types, similar to editcap.
Update the documentation to reflect this.
In text2pcap and Import from Hex Dump, allow fake IP headers with
the appropriate versions when the Raw IP, Raw IPv4, and Raw IPv6
encapsulations are specified. In such cases, do not add a dummy
Ethernet header.
Continue to reject other encapsulations besides these, Ethernet,
and Wireshark Upper PDU when appropriate. Add some checks for the
encapsulation type in text_import as well, instead of just assuming
that the callers handle it correctly.
Support all possible file formats that wiretap writes, using the
same "-F" flag that other CLI tools like editcap, mergecap, and tshark
support. Default is still pcap for now; a future commit will switch
to pcapng and remove the "-n" option, to match other CLI tools.
Add support in text2pcap for the regex mode added to "Import from
Hex Dump" in 3.6.0 The input and output indicators cannot (yet?)
be configured, and are set to the default of allowing any of "iI<"
for inbound and "oO>" for outbound. This reaches feature parity
between text2pcap and Import from Hex Dump, fixes#16724.
(There might be some more cleanups to do, including docs.)
Remove the '-d' option from text2pcap, and move the two levels
of debug messages in text2pcap and text_import to either
LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG or LOG_LEVEL_NOISY as appropriate.
Add docs/diagnostic-options.adoc, which is a snippet that documents our
various --log-* options. Include it in the dumpcap, rawshark, and tshark
man pages.
Make the ws_log_print_usage output more consistent.
Move our attributes.adoc includes to the very top of each man page.
Older versions of Asciidoctor complain if it's not at the top. and
additionally generate <file>.man instead of <file>.<section> if we don't
explictly supply an output file.
Add the program version to more commonly-used commands. We were labeling
output with "Output" and "Example output". Use "Example output"
everywhere. Other miscellaneous updates.
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.
