Guy Harris 0cc75a3569 In Wiretap, a file stream handle is a "FILE_T", not a "FILE_T *" (a
"FILE_T" is either a "gzFile" or a "FILE *", depending on whether zlib
support is enabled or not).  Fix various function declarations and
definitions.

Guy Harris f3d90d30a4 Remove the "union pseudo_header" from the "frame_data" structure;
there's no need to keep it around in memory - when the frame data is
read in when handing a frame, read in the information, if any, necessary
to reconstruct the frame header, and reconstruct it.  This saves some
memory.

This requires that the seek-and-read function be implemented inside
Wiretap, and that the Wiretap handle remain open even after we've
finished reading the file sequentially.

This also points out that we can't really do X.25-over-Ethernet
correctly, as we don't know where the direction (DTE->DCE or DCE->DTE)
flag is stored; it's not clear how the Ethernet type 0x0805 for X.25
Layer 3 is supposed to be handled in any case.  We eliminate
X.25-over-Ethernet support (until we find out what we're supposed to
do).

Guy Harris 585268e3e1 Use WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ENCAP for all attempts to open or read a
capture file for an unsupported link-layer encapsulation type (as the
nettl reader does), and report it correctly if it occurs on an open or
read attempt rather than a save attempt.

Guy Harris 7a36bede0b We are obliged to define HAVE_UNISTD_H in "config.h"; to avoid the
hideous problem on FreeBSD 3.[23] (and perhaps other BSDs) if
HAVE_UNISTD_H is defined before "zlib.h" is included, turn "file_seek()"
into a subroutine defined in a file that *undefines* HAVE_UNISTD_H
before including "zlib.h", so that the *only* call to "gzseek()" is made
from a file that does not have HAVE_UNISTD_H defined when it includes
"zlib.h".

Move "file_error()" to that file while you're at it, so it holds all the
wrappers that hide the presence or absence of zlib from routines to read
capture files.

Turn "file.h", which declared those wrapper functions as well as wrapper
macros, into "file_wrapper.h" - it belongs with the "file_wrapper.c"
file that defines the wrapper functions, not with "file.c" which handles
higher-layer file access functions.

Remove the comment in "configure.in" that explained why defining
HAVE_UNISTD_H was a bad idea, as we're not obliged to define it and work
around the problem.  (The comment in "file_wrapper.c" explains the
workaround.)

Guy Harris 3b93574402 Add some infrastructure for the use of Ethereal, so it can make a list
of all the file types in which a file can be saved.

Giving each dumpable file type a routine that checks whether a file of a
given file type and encapsulation can be written lets us hoist some
checks into common code from out of the open routines.

If the "dump close" routine for a dump stream is NULL, have that mean
that there's no action that needs to be taken on a close by the code to
handle that file type; some file types don't need that, as they can be
written purely sequentially.

Guy Harris 4c37395f73 Add support to Wiretap for writing Network Monitor 1.x-format capture
files.

Make the return type of a number of routines that return 1 (for "true")
on success and 0 (for "false") on failure to "gboolean", and make the 1's
and 0's TRUEs and FALSEs.

Guy Harris 48d5f6de4d Move the "guess what type of ATM traffic this is" stuff into the ATM
dissector; I don't think it's guaranteed that even a Sniffer will tell
you that (there may be situations where it can't figure it out, and
where the user didn't tell it), we may need it for "atmsnoop" traffic
and other types of ATM traffic as well, we will probably want to add to
it the ability to let the user specify "virtual circuit X.Y is this kind
of traffic", and we may also have Ethereal try to intuit it based on
previous traffic in the capture (Q.2931 call setup, LANE traffic, etc.).

Don't show the cell count if it's zero - assume that means we don't know
how many cells made up the packet.  Also don't show the AAL5 trailer if
the cell count is zero - the ATM Sniffer *might* sometimes supply a cell
count of 0 even if it has the AAL5 trailer, I guess, and we *might* see
some other capture file format that has the AAL5 trailer but no cell
count, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Add support for "atmsnoop" captures to the code to handle "snoop"
captures.

Use the field in "iptrace" headers that appears to be, in ATM captures,
a direction indicator - we may have the direction backwards, but, as an
STP packet was tagged as a DCE->DTE packet, and as the capturing
machine, which also was presumably the recipient of the packet, was an
AIX box, not a switch or bridge or some piece of networking equipment
such as that, it *probably* wasn't sending the STP packet, it was
probably receiving it.

Guy Harris 5f7868c7e0 Better handle errors from zlib:
Assign a range of Wiretap errors for zlib errors, and have
	"wtap_strerror()" use "zError()" to get an error message for
	them.

	Have the internal "file_error()" routine return 0 for no error
	and a Wiretap error code for an error.

Guy Harris 2ba5608a0b "snoop" seems to treat "IEEE 802.3" and "Ethernet" datalink types the
same (which raises the question "so why the heck are there two types?" -
note that the way you're supposed to tell Ethernet from 802.3 packets is
by looking at the value of the type/length field; both of them can be
transmitted on the same wire), so we'll treat them the same.

Guy Harris a9c36a4b69 Fix it so that it builds with "--disable-zlib".
The "fh" member of a "wtap" structure points to something constructed
from the "fd" member of that structure, so that closing the stream
referred to by "fh" also closes the underlying file descriptor; get rid
of an unnecessary close of "wth->fd".

Ashok Narayanan 3dfa56c498 This commit contains support for reading capture files compressed using
gzip. The zLib library is used for this purpose. If zLib is not available
(or it's use is disabled by the --disable-zlib option to configure), you
can still compile Ethereal but it will be unable to read compressed capture
files.

IMPORTANT:

Now all file accesses to capture files should be done through special macros.
Specifically, for any use of the following functions on capture files, replace them.
The arguments for the right-side functions are exactly the same as for the
original stdio functions.

	fopen			file_open
	fdopen			filed_open
	fread			file_read
	fwrite			file_write
	fseek			file_seek
	fclose			file_close
	ferror			file_error

Guy Harris c135be4e53 When skipping over the padding at the end of a record in a capture file,
don't seek around it - some implementations of the standard I/O library
routines (e.g., the ones in Solaris 2.5.1, at least) appear not to be
clever enough to handle seeks that occur within the buffer by moving the
current buffer position; instead, they do a seek on the underlying file
descriptor *and* appear to throw out the buffer, forcing them to do
another read.

Instead, read it into a buffer.

Guy Harris ae53260d02 Keep in the "wtap" structure the current offset into the file being
read, and maintain it ourselves as we read through the file, rather than
calling "ftell()" for every packet we read - "ftell()" may involve an
"lseek()" call, which could add a noticeable CPU overhead when reading a
large file.

Guy Harris 678b5fd6ff Add a new Wiretap encapsulation type WTAP_ENCAP_FDDI_BITSWAPPED, meaning
"FDDI with the MAC addresses bit-swapped"; whether the MAC addresses are
bit-swapped is a property of the machine on which the capture was taken,
not of the machine on which the capture is being read - right now, none
of the capture file formats we read indicate whether FDDI MAC addresses
are bit-swapped, but this does let us treat non-"libpcap" captures as
being bit-swapped or not bit-swapped independent of the machine on which
they're being read (and of the machine on which they were captured, but
I have the impression they're bit-swapped on most platforms), and allows
us to, if, as, and when we implement packet capture in Wiretap, mark
packets in a capture file written in Wiretap-native format based on the
machine on which they are captured (assuming the rule "Ultrix, Alpha,
and BSD/OS are the only platforms that don't bit-swap", or some other
compile-time rule, gets the right answer, or that some platform has
drivers that can tell us whether the addresses are bit-swapped).

(NOTE: if, for any of the capture file formats used only on one
platform, FDDI MAC addresses aren't bit-swapped, the code to read that
capture file format should be fixed to flag them as not bit-swapped.)

Use the encapsulation type to decide whether to bit-swap addresses in
"dissect_fddi()".

Guy Harris 4b9ab6d1fc Get rid of some cruft left in by previous checkins as placeholders.
Get rid of WTAP_ENCAP_NONE; replace it with WTAP_ENCAP_UNKNOWN, which
means "I can't handle that file, it's using an encapsulation I don't
support".

Check for encapsulations we don't support, and return an error (as is
already done in "libpcap.c").

Check for too-large packet sizes, and return an error (as is already
done in "libpcap.c").

Print unsigned quantities in Wiretap messages with "%u", not "%d".

Guy Harris 137ba48d18 Have the per-capture-file-type open routines "wtap_open_offline()" calls
return 1 on success, -1 if they got an error, and 0 if the file isn't of
the type that file is checking for, and supply an error code if they
return -1; have "wtap_open_offline()" use that error code.  Also, have
the per-capture-file-type open routines treat errors accessing the file
as errors, and return -1, rather than just returning 0 so that we try
another file type.

Have the per-capture-file-type read routines "wtap_loop()" calls return
-1 and supply an error code on error (and not, as they did in some
cases, call "g_error()" and abort), and have "wtap_loop()", if the read
routine returned an error, return FALSE (and pass an error-code-pointer
argument onto the read routines, so they fill it in), and return TRUE on
success.

Add some new error codes for them to return.

Now that "wtap_loop()" can return a success/failure indication and an
error code, in "read_cap_file()" put up a message box if we get an error
reading the file, and return the error code.

Handle the additional errors we can get when opening a capture file.

If the attempt to open a capture file succeeds, but the attempt to read
it fails, don't treat that as a complete failure - we may have managed
to read some of the capture file, and we should display what we managed
to read.

Gilbert Ramirez 601c52f0fb Added support for compiling on win32 with Visual C and 'nmake'. It compiles,
but does not link. Perhaps someone who understands the MS tools can help
out. I made it link a few months ago, but with different version of glib/gtk+.
I can't remember how I made it link.

Most of the compatibility issues were resolved with adding
#ifdef HAVE_UNISTD_H the the source code. Please be sure to add this to all
future code.

Guy Harris 86bf1fc851 Add support to wiretap for reading Sun "snoop" capture files.
That requires that, in the packet-reading loop, we pass to the callback
routine the offset in the file of a packet's data, because we can no
longer compute that offset by subtracting the size of the captured
packet data from the offset in the file after the data was read -
"snoop" may stick padding in after the packet data to align packet
headers on 4-byte boundaries.

Doing that required that we arrange that we do that for "libpcap"
capture files as well; the cleanest way to do that was to write our own
code for reading "libpcap" capture files, rather than using the
"libpcap" code to do it.

Make "wtap_dispatch_cb()" and "pcap_dispatch_cb()" static to "file.c",
as they're not used elsewhere.

If we're using wiretap, don't define in "file.h" stuff used only when
we're not using wiretap.

Update the wiretap README to reflect Gilbert's and my recent changes.

Clean up some memory leaks in "wiretap/lanalyzer.c" and
"wiretap/ngsniffer.c", where the capture-file-format-specific data
wasn't freed if the open failed.
