--disable-all-protocols will mark all protocols as disabled by default,
and then disable them. Certain protocols can then be enabled one by one
by using --enable-protocol.
--only-protocols is a helper option to make it easier to enable only
certain protocols It's equivalent to passing --disable-all-protocols and
then several --enable-protocol options. It accepts a comma separated
list of protocols. First all protocols will be disabled, and then all
protocols included in the list will be enabled one by one.
Side-note, it wouldn't make much sense to enable only "tcp" for example
without enabling the protocols in the lower layers (e.g: eth, sll, ip,
ipv6). In this case, something like --only-protocols eth,sll,ip,ipv6,tcp
will generally be needed in order to make sure that TCP is decoded.

Exposing the fvalue_t implementation is exposing internal
details of the implementation. Fix that by making the fvalue_t
internal to the ftypes implementation and using setters/getters
where necessary.
Use the common dissection options processing for rawshark.
This means that the error message for resolving options includes
all the possible resolving options (e.g. instead of omitting VLAN).
This add support for the other options, which generally make sense,
like enabling and disabling protocols and heuristics.
The only option that isn't supported is the Decode As option, only
because '-d' is used by rawshark for its payload link layer type /
dissector selection.
Return an struct containing error information. This simplifies
the interface to more easily provide richer diagnostics in the future.
Add an error code besides a human-readable error string to allow
checking programmatically for errors in a robust manner. Currently
there is only a generic error code, it is expected to increase
in the future.
Move error location information to the struct. Change callers and
implementation to use the new interface.
Wait up to 30 seconds for extcap process to finish after closing pipes.
The wait is achieved in non-blocking fashion, i.e. the UI is completely
responsive during the wait. Only actions related to capture process like
capture control, file open, save, export are inactive during the wait.
On Windows extcap child watch callback gets called immediately as the
process is forcefully terminated. Prior to this change the extcap was
forcefully terminated on Windows anyway.
The wait is possible on UNIX systems if extcap does handle SIGPIPE and
SIGTERM signals. The defaults handlers for SIGPIPE and SIGTERM simply
terminate the process so for large number of extcaps there is no change.
If extcap does not finish within 30 seconds, it is forcefully terminated
using SIGKILL signal.

Besides the obvious limitation of being unavailable on Windows,
the standard is vague about getopt() and getopt_long() has many
non-portable pitfalls and buggy implementations, that increase
the maintainance cost a lot. Also the GNU libc code currently
in the tree is not suited for embedding and is unmaintainable.
Own maintainership for getopt_long() and use the musl implementation
everywhere. This way we don't need to worry if optreset is available,
or if the $OPERATING_SYSTEM version behaves in subtly different ways.
The API is under the Wireshark namespace to avoid conflicts with
system headers.
Side-note, the Mingw-w64 9.0 getopt_long() implementation is buggy
with opterr and known to crash. In my experience it's a headache to
use the embedded getopt implementation if the system provides one.
Version info is an aspect of UI implementation so move it to
a more appropriate place, such as ui/. This also helps declutter
the top-level.
A static library is appropriate to encapsulate the dependencies
as private and it is better supported by CMake than object libraries.
Also version_info.h should not be installed as a public header.
Instead of receiving the program name from GLib, pass it explicitly
to ws_log_init() instead and use that to initialize the GLib program
name.
ws_log_parse_args() will now exit the program when it encounters an
argument error if exit_failure >= 0.
A domain filter can be given in the environment variable
'WS_LOG_DOMAINS' or in a command-line options "--log-domains".
The filter is specified as a comma separated case insensitive list,
for example:
./tshark --log-domains=main,capture
Domain data type switches from an enum to a string. There is no
constaint on adding new domains, neither in code or at runtime.
The string format is arbitrary, only positive matches will produce
output.
Experience has shown that:
1. The current logging methods are not very reliable or practical.
A logging bitmask makes little sense as the user-facing interface (who
would want debug but not crtical messages for example?); it's
computer-friendly and user-unfriendly. More importantly the console
log level preference is initialized too late in the startup process
to be used for the logging subsystem and that fact raises a number
of annoying and hard-to-fix usability issues.
2. Coding around G_MESSAGES_DEBUG to comply with our log level mask
and not clobber the user's settings or not create unexpected log misses
is unworkable and generally follows the principle of most surprise.
The fact that G_MESSAGES_DEBUG="all" can leak to other programs using
GLib is also annoying.
3. The non-structured GLib logging API is very opinionated and lacks
configurability beyond replacing the log handler.
4. Windows GUI has some special code to attach to a console,
but it would be nice to abstract away the rest under a single
interface.
5. Using this logger seems to be noticeably faster.
Deprecate the console log level preference and extend our API to
implement a log handler in wsutil/wslog.h to provide easy-to-use,
flexible and dependable logging during all execution phases.
Log levels have a hierarchy, from most verbose to least verbose
(debug to error). When a given level is set everything above that
is also enabled.
The log level can be set with an environment variable or a command
line option (parsed as soon as possible but still later than the
environment). The default log level is "message".
Dissector logging is not included because it is not clear what log
domain they should use. An explosion to thousands of domains is
not desirable and putting everything in a single domain is probably
too coarse and noisy. For now I think it makes sense to let them do
their own thing using g_log_default_handler() and continue using the
G_MESSAGES_DEBUG mechanism with specific domains for each individual
dissector.
In the future a mechanism may be added to selectively enable these
domains at runtime while trying to avoid the problems introduced
by G_MESSAGES_DEBUG.
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.
"Commonly-used" meaning "used by more than one source file".
Clean up the exit codes, combining some duplicates with different names,
and using some instead of raw numbers in some places.
The distinction between the different kinds of capture utility
may not warrant a special subfolfer for each, and sometimes the
distinction is not be clear or some functions could stradle
multiple "categories" (like capture_ifinfo.[ch]).
Simplify by having only a generic 'capture' subfolder. The
separate CMake libraries are kept as a way to reuse object code
efficiently.
Have routines to report capture-file errors, using libwireshark error
codes and strings, that call through a pointer, so they can pop up
dialogs in GUI apps, print a message to the standard error on
command-line apps, and possibly do something different on server
programs.
Have init_report_message() take a pointer to structure containing those
function pointers, rather than the function pointers themselves, as
arguments.
Make other API changes to make that work.
Eliminate WTAP_FILE_TYPE_SUBTYPE_ERF and
WTAP_FILE_TYPE_SUBTYPE_SYSTEMD_JOURNAL - instead, fetch the values by
name, using wtap_name_to_file_type_subtype().
This requires that wtap_init() be called before epan_init(); that's
currently the case, but put in comments to indicate why it must continue
to be the case.
Adds a pre-commit hook for detecting and replacing
occurrences of `g_malloc()` and `wmem_alloc()` with
`g_new()` and `wmem_new()`, to improve the
readability of Wireshark's code, and
occurrences of
`g_malloc(sizeof(struct myobj) * foo)`
with
`g_new(struct myobj, foo)`
to prevent integer overflows
Also fixes all existing occurrences across
the codebase.
In each of our executables we were calling "setlocale(LC_ALL, "")" at
startup. This told Windows that output was encoded using the current
system code page. Unless the code page was 65001 (UTF-8), this was a lie.
We write UTF-8 to stdout and stderr, so call "setlocale(LC_ALL, ".UTF-8)"
at startup on Windows. This lets the CRT translate our output correctly
in more cases.
Clarify and expand the OUTPUT section in the tshark man page.

true_false_strings have no helper function to properly retrieve the
string representing the true or false value, much like unit_strings,
even though this is not uncommon in dissectors.
This change introduces the helper function and modifies the dissectors,
so that they use this helper i.s.o. their own expressions.

Those routines exist on both Windows and UN*X, but they don't do
anything on UN*X (they could if it were ever necessary).
That eliminates some #ifdefs, and also means that the gory details of
initializing Winsock, including the Winsock version being requested,
are buried in one routine.
The initialization routine returns NULL on success and a pointer to a
g_malloc()ated error message on failure; report the error to the user,
along with a "report this to the Wireshark developers" suggestion.
That means including wsutil/socket.h, which obviates the need to include
some headers for socket APIs, as it includes them for you.
