Move the ringbuffer capture options from the "capture_file" structure to
the structure for capture options, as they're a property of an
in-progress capture, not a property of a particular capture file.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=4799
"capture_file" structure - they're a property of an in-progress capture,
not a property of an open capture file. Make them just variables.
The maximum number of packets to be captured should be a variable
separate from the "count" field in the "capture_file" structure - the
latter is a count of the packets in the capture file in question.
Have Boolean variables indicating whether a maximum packet count,
maximum capture file size, and maximum capture duration were specified.
If an option isn't set, and we're doing an "update list of packets in
real time" capture, don't pass the option to the child process with a
command-line argument.
Don't create "stop when the capture file reaches this size" or "stop
when the capture's run for this long" conditions if a maximum capture
file size or a maximum capture duration, respectively, haven't been
specified. Don't test or free a condition if it wasn't created.
Don't allow a 0 argument to the "-c" flag - the absence of a "-c" flag
is the way you specify "no limit on the number of packets".
Initialize the check boxes and spin buttons for the "maximum packets to
capture", "maximum capture size", and "maximum capture duration" options
to the values they had in the last capture. If an option wasn't
specified, don't read its value from the dialog box and set the
variable.

reading the capture file. Have callers of "wtap_snapshot_length()"
treat a value of 0 as "unknown", and default to WTAP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE (so
that, when writing a capture file in a format that *does* store the
snapshot length, we can at least put *something* in the file).
If we don't know the snapshot length of the current capture file, don't
display a value in the summary window.
Don't use "cfile.snap" as the snapshot length option when capturing -
doing so causes Ethereal to default, when capturing, to the snapshot
length of the last capture file that you read in, rather than to the
snapshot length of the last capture you did (or the initial default of
"no snapshot length").
Redo the "Capture Options" dialog box to group options into sections
with frames around them, and add units to the snapshot length, maximum
file size, and capture duration options, as per a suggestion by Ulf
Lamping. Also add units to the capture count option.
Make the snapshot length, capture count, maximum file size, and capture
duration options into a combination of a check box and a spin button.
If the check box is not checked, the limit in question is inactive
(snapshot length of 65535, no max packet count, no max file size, no max
capture duration); if it's checked, the spinbox specifies the limit.
Default all of the check boxes to "not checked" and all of the spin
boxes to small values.
Use "gtk_toggle_button_get_active()" rather than directly fetching the
state of a check box.

"epan/..." pathnames, so as to avoid collisions with header files in any
of the directories in which we look (e.g., "proto.h", as some other
package has its own "proto.h" file which it installs in the top-level
include directory).
Don't add "-I" flags to search "epan", as that's no longer necessary
(and we want includes of "epan" headers to fail if the "epan/" is left
out, so that we don't re-introduce includes lacking "epan/").

If we're building without libpcap, don't have an "Automatic scrolling in

(by deleting the main window or selecting File->Quit or typing ^Q) while
an "Update list of packets in real time" capture is in progress, we can
abort the capture.
Arrange that "fork_child" is -1 when there is no capture child, so said
routine knows when it can kill the child.
When we exit, kill off any capture child, using that routine, and, if
we're exiting due to a request to delete the main window and, if a read
is in progress (from an "Update list of packets in real time" capture),
don't delete the main window - just set the "Read aborted" flag, so that
the code doing the read will see that flag (it will be called because
the pipe to the capture child is closed due to the child exiting) will
see that and clean up and exit itself.

"gboolean", as it's a Boolean value, and move it to the beginning of the
structure in Tethereal, as it is in Ethereal.
From Graeme Hewson:
Check for "pcap_dispatch()" returning -1, meaning an error
occurred; if it does, stop capturing, and report the error.
If we get a signal in tethereal, stop the capture with a
"longjmp()", rather than by clearning the "go" flag;
"pcap_dispatch()", on many platforms, keeps reading rather than
returning a captured packet count of 0 if the system call to
read packets returns -1 with an errno of EINTR, so the
"pcap_dispatch()" won't be broken out of if the signal handler
returns.
Fix a typo in an error message.

From Thomas Wittwer and Matthias Nyffenegger:
Support for "ring buffer mode", wherein there's a ring buffer of N
capture files; as each capture file reaches its maximum size (the ring
buffer works only with a maximum capture file size specified), Ethereal
rolls over to the next capture file in the ring buffer, replacing
whatever packets might be in it with new packets.

a "Match Selected" on it - we can't do a "Match Selected" if the field
has no value (e.g., FT_NULL) and has a length of 0.
If we unselect the current packet, we don't have a protocol tree, so we
don't have a currently selected field - clear the "Match Selected" menu
item and the display in the status line of information about the
currently selected field.
Move the low-level statusbar manipulation into "gtk/main.c", in routines
whose API doesn't expose anything GTK+-ish.
"close_cap_file()" calls one of those routines to clear out the status
bar, so it doesn't need to take a pointer to the statusbar widget as an
argument.
"clear_tree_and_hex_views()" is purely a display-manipulating routine;
move it to "gtk/proto_draw.c".
Extract from "tree_view_unselect_row_cb()" an "unselect_field()" routine
to do all the work that needs to be done if the currently selected
protocol tree row is unselected, and call it if the currently selected
packet list row is unselected (if it's unselected, there *is* no
protocol tree, so no row can be selected), as well as from
"tree_view_unselect_row_cb()".
Before pushing a new field-description message onto the statusbar, pop
the old one off.
Get rid of an unused variable (set, but not used).

DLT_HDLC to it.
Make a separate dissector for Cisco HDLC, and add a dissector for Cisco
SLARP. Have the PPP dissector call the Cisco HDLC dissector if the
address field is the Cisco HDLC unicast or multicast address. Use the
Cisco HDLC dissector for the Cisco HDLC Wiretap encapsulation type.
Add a new dissector table "chdlctype", for Cisco HDLC packet types
(they're *almost* the same as Ethernet types, but 0x8035 is SLARP, not
Reverse ARP, and 0x2000 is the Cisco Discovery protocol, for example),
replacing "fr.chdlc".
Have a "chdlctype()" routine, similar to "ethertype()", used both by the
Cisco HDLC and Frame Relay dissectors. Have a "chdlc_vals[]"
"value_string" table for Cisco HDLC types and protocol names. Split the
packet type field in the Frame Relay dissector into separate SNAP and
Cisco HDLC fields, and give them the Ethernet type and Cisco HDLC type
"value_string" tables, respectively.

doesn't work like the read timeout in BPF - the timer doesn't start
until at least one packet has arrived.
I think that's the way read timeouts should work on *all* packet capture
mechanisms, but it does mean that Solaris will, on a quiet net, exhibit
the same symptoms that Linux used to exhibit before we put in a
"select()" call to wait until either packets arrive or a timer expires -
the "pcap_dispatch()" call blocks until a packet arrives, so the display
doesn't get updated and Ethereal doesn't respond to user input until a
packet arrives.
Furthermore, Linux isn't the only OS that lacks any read timeout
on its packet capture mechanism; the others will also have that problem.
We therefore do the "select()" on *all* platforms other than the BSDs
(where the timer starts when the read is done, and can be used for
polling); I don't know whether it's necessary on Digital UNIX, but I
suspect it's necessary on SunOS 4.x (as the 5.x "bufmod" is probably
derived from the 4.x one, and the 5.x one, as per the above, starts the
timer when a packet arrives), and it may even be necessary on 3.x, those
(BSD, SunOS including 5.x, and Digital UNIX) apparently being the only
UNIXes that appear to have such a read timeout.

as far as I know, the only way to get IFF_UP, IFF_LOOPBACK, "struct
ifreq", and "struct ifconf" defined, and those are required in order to
get, via SIOCGIFCONF, the interface list, and to exclude interfaces that
aren't up and handle loopback interfaces differently from other
interfaces.
If we're on UNIX and have libpcap, we should do the same; that way, if
the system doesn't have <net/if.h> installed, the compile will fail with
an "I can't find <net/if.h>" error, rather than the configure indicating
that <net/if.h> can't be found, causing "util.c" not to include it,
causing it to fail with complaints about IFF_UP, IFF_LOOPBACK, and
various structures not being defined - the former tells you the root
cause, the latter doesn't.
