Most of the time, the return value tells us nothing useful, as we've
already decided that we're perfectly willing to live with string
truncation. Hopefully this keeps Coverity from whining that those
routines could return an error code (NARRATOR: They don't) and thus that
we're ignoring the possibility of failure (as indicated, we've already
decided that we can live with string truncation, so truncation is *NOT*
a failure).
The secs field is a time_t, which is not necessarily 32 bits. If it's
not, casting away the upper bits, by casting to guint32, introduces a
Y2.038K bug.
Either cast to time_t or, if you're assigning a time_t to it, don't
bother with the cast.
Calling cmake with -DENABLE_VLD=ON when building with Visual Studio,
results in debug configuration being linked to Visual Leak Detector.
By default, Visual Leak Detector outputs the leak summary to Visual
Studio debug window. When ENABLE_VLD is active, VLD is linked to all
wireshark libraries and executables.
Drop in the comment from libpcap about version 1.2 (I wrote that
comment, and generously double-license it under the BSD license and the
GPL :-)).
Redo the version test as
if (!({version is one we handle}))
to match the way it's done in libpcap.
- parse the number of system call arguments in a way that works for both V1 and V2 event blocks
- returned the correct error string when unable to read the nparams entry from a sysdig event block V2
Update the pcap-ng reader and sysdig event dissector to support the second version of the sysdig event block, which was introduced after Wireshark's original implementation
All the NetMon reading code does is initialize the pseudo-header; the
bulk of the work is done in the dissector. Give the dissector its own
pseudo-header structure, and do the initialization there.
That's the way other packet formats in which the 802.11 radio metadata
is a header at the beginning of the packet data, such as radiotap, work.
The '/codecs' dir was removed in g63af1da7e7.
Avoid using include_directories(), prefer target_include_directories().
Remove some unnecessary CMAKE_CURRENT_*_DIR includes and some other
small cleanups while at it.
If a header declares a function, or anything else requiring the extern
"C" decoration, have it wrap the declaration itself; don't rely on the
header itself being included inside extern "C".
Add comments in various switch statements warning people *not* to add
standardized block types or option codes that aren't in the pcapng spec.
If you want a standardized block or option type, go through the
standards process.
Only a tiny amount of code outside libwiretap needs to know about
pcap/pcapng LINKTYPE_ values, and all that code needs to know is, for a
given LINKTYPE_ value, what the corresponding WTAP_ENCAP_ value is.
Nothing should need to know, for a given WTAP_ENCAP_ value, what its
LINKTYPE_ value is.
Make it the case that nothing *does* need to know, for a given
WTAP_ENCAP_ value, what its LINKTYPE_ value is. Export
wtap_dump_can_write_encap() and use *that*, in the "import hex dump"
code, what formats can be written to a pcap file.
Add missing entries, regularize the descriptions, etc..
Note that pcap and pcapng are the native formats.
Fix various issues.
Update the editcap -F output to match urrent reality.
While we're at it, sort the libwiretap modules, putting observer.c in
the right place.
Name the source to the code to read Observer files after the file
format, not the company that created it, got bought by JDSU, and then
ended up in Viavi when JDSU split.
Refer to the file format as "Viavi Observer" to reflect that.
Let individual file type/subtype modules register their
backwards-compatibility names, rather than having a centralized table
that would need to be updated along with the module.
We don't need to initialize first_section before calling
pcapng_read_section_header_block(); it doesn't depend on it being
initialized, and sets byte_swapped, version_major, and version_minor if
what it reads is a valid SHB, so we don't need to set those in
pcap_open().
We don't need to set shb_off until we've deemed this to be a pcapng
file, so do so at the same point that we initialize
We also don't need to initialize wblock until we call
pcapng_read_section_header_block(), so do so all in one place.
Instead of pcapng_open() calling pcap_block_read() to do all the work of
reading the initial SHB, have it do the read of the initial SHB itself,
by calling the same routines that pcap_block_read() calls.
That way, pcap_block_read() doesn't have to be prepared to be called to
read that block, so it can treat all issues with an SHB that it reads as
errors, rather than possibly reporting them as "not a pcapng file", and
it doesn't have to support being called without a pointer to the
pcapng_t for the file being read, as it no longer ever is. It can now
just return a gboolean success/failure indication.
That makes pcapng_open() a little more complicated but it makes
pcap_block_read() less complicated.
Fix some use of : as ' in comments while we're at it.
Pass a null pointer to pcapng_read_block(), instead. In
pcapng_read_block(), treat that as the indication that we're trying to
read the purported first SHB, rather than treating a null section_info
pointer as that indication.
This addreses one, but not all, of the problems reported in issue #17281.
Use the data rate and channel to determine 11b vs. 11g vs. 11a for:
* Aruba Networks encapsulated remote mirroring;
* Prism headers;
* *Peek remote protocol;
* Network Instruments^W^WViavi Observer;
* *Peek classic format;
* Shomiti Surveyor.
Note why we *don't* need to do that for NetMon captures.
Do more fixups of the "phy" based on the data rate, so that it reflects
the modulation used for the packet.
Note, in comments, why we're doing this, and that there's no reiable
way, in radiotap, to determine the type of channel on which capturing is
being done, as some packet providers use the channel field to indicate
the channel type and others use it to indicate the modulation.
Only provide the "short preamble" for "11b", as that's now being used to
mean "DSSS modulation" - packets on an 11g channel will be marked as
"11g" if they're OFDM or "11b" if they're DSSS.
Make some other cleanups while we're at it.
Put all the TLV stuff together. *If* some TLVs are only in the file
header and others are only in packets, thot should be the split; it
appears that the TLVS with a type with the 0x01 bit clear are for the
file header, so perhaps they can be split based on that.
Don't include the TLV header in the structure for the time_info TLV;
that matches other TLV structures. Write the time_info TLV in two
parts, as we do with the comment TLV.
Consistently use _TO_LE macros in our _TO_LE_IN_PLACE macros.
Add _FROM_LE_IN_PLACE and _TO_LE_IN_PLACE macros for the network_load
TLV.
Use %z, now that we require C99-or-later.
Check the length of TLVs.
Note some things found in files while reverse engineering.
FOr 11b and 11g, also set the metadata to provide the "short preamble"
indication.
Add some macros to wsutil/802_11-utils.h to help there, as I threatened
to do in the previous commit. :-)
When building with GCC 10.2.0 and optimization level 3 some new
warnings turn up. Fix them.

In the top-level .editorconfig, note that we don't use CMake's standard
indentation.
Remove ascendtext.[ch] from wiretap/.editorconfig since it's no longer
needed.
I believe this was the original intention, to use these API restricitons
with dissectors only (not that I necessarily agree with that policy either),
and through copy-paste and lack of clear guidelines it spread to other
parts of the build.
Rename the checkAPI groups to make it very clear that this is dissector-only.
This doesn't mean, of course, that good programming practices shouldn't be
followed everywhere. In particular assertions need to be used properly.
Don't use them to catch runtime errors or validate input data.
This commit will be followed by another removing the various ugly hacks
people have been using to get around the checkAPI hammer.
Those are used by more than one file type, so we should provide a block
type for them. (We don't *currently* use that block type, or the packet
block type, but this makes them available for future use.)
Check to make sure the value is non-negative and less than the number of
file type/subtypes.
Make it clearer than one check is unnecessary:
* pull wtap_dump_open_check() into wtap_dump_init_dumper(), so it's
clear that wtap_dump_init_dumper() ensures the validity of the file
type/subtype value early on (wtap_dump_can_open() fails if it's not
valid);
* pull wtap_dump_alloc_wdh() into wtap_dump_init_dumper(), so that the
allocation and all the initialiation is done there - that makes it clear
that it sets the file_type_subtype member of the wtap_dumper structure
before wtap_dump_init_dumper() returns;
* have wtap_dump_open_finish() use that value rather than being passed
the type/subtype value explicitly, so it's clear that it's dealing with
a validated value.
It only registers one file type/subtype, so rename it to
wtap_register_file_type_subtype().
That will also force plugins to be recompiled; that will produce compile
errors for some plugins that didn't change to match the new contents of
the file_type_subtype_info structure.
Also check to make sure that the registered file type/subtype supports
at least one type of block; a file type/subtype that doesn't return
*any* blocks and doesn't permit *any* block types to be written is not
very useful. That should also catch most if not all other plugins that
didn't change to match the new contents of the file_type_subtype_info
structure.
Don't make errors registering a file type/subtype fatal; just complain,
don't register the bogus file type/subtype, and drive on.
Register the pcap and pcapng file types/subtypes rather than hardwiring
them into the table.
Call the registration routines for them directly, rather than through a
generated table; they're always supposed to be there, as some code in
Wireshark either writes only one of those formats or defaults to writing
one of those formats. Don't run their source code through the
registration-routine-finder script.
Have the file type/subtype codes for them be directly exported to the
libwiretap core, and provide routines to return each of them, to be used
by the aforementioned code.
When reporting errors with cfile_write_failure_message(), use
wtap_dump_file_type_subtype() to get the file type/subtype value for the
wtap_dumper to which we're writing, rather than hardcoding it.
Have the "export PDU" code capable of supporting arbitrary file
types/subtypes, although we currently only use pcapng.
Get rid of declarations of now-static can_write_encap and
dump_open routines in various headers.
"i" and "j" are too similar, so it's easy to use the wrong one if you're
using both as array indices and not easy enough to notice the mistake.
Use somewhat more meaningful names when we fix the index.
Fixes#17252.
Instead of a "supports name resolution" Boolean and bitflags for types of
comments supported, provide a list of block types that the file
type/subtype supports, with each block type having a list of options
supported. Indicate whether "supported" means "one instance" or
"multiple instances".
"Supports" doesn't just mean "can be written", it also means "could be
read".
Rename WTAP_BLOCK_IF_DESCRIPTION to WTAP_BLOCK_IF_ID_AND_INFO, to
indicate that it provides, in addition to information about the
interface, an ID (implicitly, in pcapng files, by its ordinal number)
that is associated with every packet in the file. Emphasize that in
comments - just because your capture file format can list the interfaces
on which a capture was done, that doesn't mean it supports this; it
doesn't do so if the file doesn't indicate, for every packet, on which
of those interfaces it was captured (I'm looking at *you*, Microsoft
Network Monitor...).
Use APIs to query that information to do what the "does this file
type/subtype support name resolution information", "does this file
type/subtype support all of these comment types", and "does this file
type/subtype support - and require - interface IDs" APIs did.
Provide backwards compatibility for Lua.
This allows us to eliminate the WTAP_FILE_TYPE_SUBTYPE_ values for IBM's
iptrace; do so.
