Build on !13975 to add human-readable descriptions for all heuristic
dissector tables in Wireshark.
Chosen names are meant to give some info on when a heuristic dissector
lookup will be made. Terms like 'fallback' are used when the heuristic
is only consulted if other checks do not result in dissection, for
example.
People with more intimate knowledge of the protocols and dissectors
involved are encouraged to suggest or implement better descriptions.
Remove init of proto, header field, expert info and subtree variables.
This will reduces the binary size by approximate 1266320 bytes due to
using .bss to zero-initialize the fields.
The conversion is done using the tools/convert-proto-init.py script.
When dissectors register for Follow Stream, have them register a
function for finding the next valid sub stream id for a given
stream and substream id pair. This function is NULL if the dissector
does not use sub stream IDs.
Use this function in follow_stream_dialog to update the sub stream
id widget (and use the absence of the function to disable and hide
the widget.) Use this function in the CLI tap-follow to determine
whether to parse a sub stream id from the command line options.
This removes the dependencies on epan/dissectors from the Qt
follow_stream_dialog, and gets us closer to having dissectors
being able to register for Follow Stream without having to update
anything in the common source code.
-Changed the encoding of certain options to their appropriate value, the old values caused compilation error on some machines
-Reverted change #1 in commit c7d3335110290886f6dd56fa640c8b0ca0b7fce5 which caused a packet malformation error due to a data item being read incorrectly.
-Certain lines had a mixture of tabs and spaces which prevented compilation on certain machines
-Replaced protocol abbreviation from mpdccp.mp_* to dccp_mp_* to solve PROTOABBREV error when building
-Changed proto_tree_add_unit to proto_tree_add_item, as suggested for the dissect feature option
-Changed conditional statements to switch case in for MP_ADDADDR
-List MP_OPT as a subtree with relevant MP_SEQ, ID Address and/or subflow.
-Fixed a compilation warning due to an except statement creating subtree for an inexistent tree.
Previous implementation lacked MP_ADDADDR, MP_REMOVEADDR and had an outdated version of MP_PRIO.
Fixed a bug where the dissector had an incorrect offset of 1 byte, resulting in it incorrectly reading headers and data, something resulting in malformed packets.
Instead of having the UI have to know about each type of follow
stream, and how to retrieve its total number of streams, have
each follow type register a function that returns the total
number of stream. (The function can be NULL, for protocols like
SIP that do not use this.)
This gets us closer to making follow stream registration generic.
A conversation in Wireshark might have two endpoints or might have no
endpoints; few if any have one endpoint. Distinguish between
conversations and endpoints.
The "conversation table" mechanism supports two types of tables, one for
the "Conversations" menu item under "Statistics" and one for the
"Endpoints" menu item under "Statistics". The first of them shows
statistics for conversations at various layers of the networking stack;
the second of them shows statistics for endpoints at various layers of
the networking stack.
The latter is *not* a table of hosts; an endpoint might be a host,
identified by an address at some network level (MAC, IP, etc.), or it
might be a port on a host, identified by an address/port pair.
Some data types, function names, etc. use "host" or "hostlist" or other
terms that imply that an endpoint is a host; change them to speak of
endpoints rather than hosts, using names similar to the corresponding
functions for conversations.
Provide wrapper functions and typedefs for backwards source and binary
compatibility; mark them as deprecated in favor of the new names.
Clean up some comment errors found in the process.
The TCP and UDP follow conversation filter functions should
only retrieve a conversation and conversation data, not
create new conversations or new stream numbers. (That should
only happen during actual packet processing.) So they should
match on the endpoint type and not look up endpoints (since
TCP and UDP don't use the endpoint API.)
They still don't work with tunneling, or any other situation where
the addresses and ports have been changed (see #18231), but this
at least works when some other protocol _has_ used the endpoint
API, and also avoids creating nonsensical streams.
Making them work properly with tunneling either requires adding
packet info to each packet with the stream information, or using
the endpoint API (after finishing it to allow more than one endpoint
on the packet, and a way of searching for endpoints other than
the most recent.)
Changes:
- epan/follow.c: follow_conv_filter_func has new parameter
epan_dissect_t *edt, so filter can be generated based on decoded tree
of packet below the cursor
- menu Follow/SIP Call is enabled when sip packet is selected
- value of sip.Call-ID is used as filter for SIP call
- for sharkd it generates filter just 'sip.Call-ID' with no value
This pull request includes:
* The "Follow DCCP stream" feature.
* Updated docbook documentation for the "Follow DCCP stream" feature.
* Test for the feature.
* Corresponding packet trace for the test.

That way, we don't need a chunk of code in epan/prefs.c that knows about
various preference module mappings; individual dissectors can register
aliases as appropriate.
(The Nortel Discovery Protocol never *had* any preferences, even when
it was the SynOptics Network Management Protocol, so there's no need for
it to register an alias.)

When a single UDP port is supporting multiple protocols, for example RTP and
RTCP can share a port, and one of these protocols is detected through a
heuristic before a superior protocol (e.g. SIP/SDP) has established that the
port has multiple protocols, then only the heuristic is used. This is due to
only looking for an exact match with find_conversation() and not going any
further. The superior protocol only adds the dissector by source address/port.
So, to fix, if we do not find the exact match, we continue serching for a
dissector on the partial matches.

For the moment this mirrors the port_type enumeration (PT_XXX), but the
intent is to move away from using "port types", eliminating most (if not
all)
Added conversation_pt_to_endpoint_type() so that conversations deal with the
correct enumeration. This is for dissector that use pinfo->ptype as input
to conversation APIs. Explicit use of port types are converted to using
ENDPOINT_XXX type.

Several calls to proto_tree_add_uint_format_value could be better served
using BASE_UNIT_STRING with a "unit string" in hf_ field. There also
a few cases where proto_tree_add_uint_format_value could just be
proto_tree_add_uint.
Added a few more "common" unit string values to unit_strings.[ch]

Have all dissector tables have a "supports Decode As" flag, which
defaults to FALSE, and which is set to TRUE if a register_decode_as()
refers to it.
When adding a dissector to a dissector table with a given key, only add
it for Decode As if the dissector table supports it.
For non-FT_STRING dissector tables, always check for multiple entries
for the same protocol with different dissectors, and report an error if
we found them.
This means there's no need for the creator of a dissector table to
specify whether duplicates of that sort should be allowed - we always do
the check when registering something for "Decode As" (in a non-FT_STRING
dissector table), and just don't bother registering anything for "Decode
As" if the dissector table doesn't support "Decode As", so there's no
check done for those dissector tables.
