For the upcoming 4.0 release, switch the default file format for
text2pcap to pcapng from pcap, to match other tools and the GUI
behavior. Update the documentation and release notes appropriately.
Deprecate the old -n flag; since pcapng is the default this has no
effect. Changing the output capture file format is supported with
the -F option, consistent with the other command line tools.
Related to #18009.
Users might want to download a source tarball and build an RPM
package from it.
Have git-export-release.sh use git-archive's 'export-subst' feature
so that it can detect whether it is being run from a git repository
versus run from source extracted from a tarball produced by git-archive.
In the latter case, produce a helpful console message telling the
user to copy the downloaded tarball into the binary directory so
that the rpm-package target can succeed. Also update the Developer's
Guide to suggest this as well.
We could try to create our own archive using tar, but there are
several possible gotchas, such as in-source builds, excluding a build
directory that is a subdirectory of the source dir, excluding unknown
different build directories from previous builds, dealing with different
options in different versions of tar, etc. This is good enough for
the common case, and anyone who wants something more complicated can
hopefully create their own tarball.
Fix#15167
Add support to display filters for matching a specific layer within a frame.
Layers are counted sequentially up the protocol stack. Each protocol
(dissector) that appears in the stack is one layer.
LINK-LAYER#1 <-> IP#1 <-> TCP#1 <-> IP#2 <-> TCP#2 <-> etc.
The syntax allows for negative indexes and ranges with the usual semantics
for slices (but note that counting starts at one):
tcp.port#[2-4] == 1024
Matches layers 2 to 4 inclusive.
Fixes#3791.
Sparklines should display to the user, which interfaces are active
and ready for capture. Additionally it should be easy to find active
interfaces, without filtering first.
This change reorders the interface list, in order to sort active
interfaces on top, as well as hide information if no packet has been
received on that interface, to ensure that the user can find active
interfaces faster, making it easier to capture on systems where
the interfaces have very generic names.
The interface context menu has been amended to allow interfaces to be
hidden/unhidden from the main interface list as well

We now use a stack to pass arguments to the function. The
stack is implemented as a list of lists (list of registers).
Arguments may still be non-existent to functions (this is
a feature). Functions must check for nil arguments (NULL lists)
and handle that case.
It's somewhat complicated to allow literal values and test compatibility
for different types, both because of lack of type information with
unparsed/literal and also because it is an underdeveloped area in the
code. In my limited testing it was good enough and useful, further
enhancements are left for future work.
The same hierarchy of protocols can appear multiple times in a frame,
for example if there are multiple PDUs for a protocol that begin in
that frame. Keep track of the last frame where we incremented our
stat node and use that to only increment it once per frame.
Add a "total number of PDUs with this hierarchy" statistic and
display it as a new final column in the GUI. Update the User Guide.
In the purpose of doing this, get rid of temporary variables and
increment the ph_stats_t members directly, since we pass that
into our functions already, and thus have access to the current
packet count.
Fix#17553. Fix#18034. Fix#12565.
This removes the limitation of having only two terms in an
arithmetic expression and allows setting the precedence using
curly braces (like any basic calculator).
Our grammar currently does not allow grouping arithmetic expressions
using parenthesis, because boolean expressions and arithmetic
expressions are different and parenthesis are used with the former.
If we're running in the Logwolf configuration namespace, look for
extcaps in a directory named "extlog". This paves the way for adding
log-specific capture utilities.
Instead of saying a leading colon will make any token a literal
value, say it is part of the syntax of bytes arrays. This is
useful to write bytes without a separator, and other potentially
ambiguous formats.
The restriction in meaning to bytes and simple numeric values
should make the rules for handling a leading colon (specifically
ommiting it or not) saner without much loss of functionality.
In most, if not all, programming languages logical AND has
higher precedence than logical OR. Apply the principle of
least surprise and do the same for Wireshark display
filters.

Add support for display filter binary addition and subtraction.
The grammar is intentionally kept simple for now. The use case
is to add a constant to a protocol field, or (maybe) add two
fields in an expression.
We use signed arithmetic with unsigned numbers, checking for
overflow and casting where necessary to do the conversion.
We could legitimately opt to use traditional modular arithmetic
instead (like C) and if it turns out that that is more useful for
some reason we may want to in the future.

If USE_qt6 is enabled, set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to WIRESHARK_QT6_PREFIX_PATH

6 builds. Note that we have experimental support for Qt 6 in the
Developer's Guide.
Add support for masking of bits. Before the bitwise operator
could only test bits, it did not support clearing bits.
This allows testing if any combination of bits are set/unset
more naturally with a single test. Previously this was only
possible by combining several bitwise predicates.
Bitwise is implemented as a test node, even though it is not.
Maybe the test node should be renamed to something else.
Fixes#17246.

Create a Wireshark.dSYM bundle for our debugging symbols. Create a
separate .dmg for the dSYM bundle, similar to what we do for Windows.
`dwarfdump --uuid run/Wireshark.dSYM` returns what app
This reduces the size of the application bundle and .dmg quite a bit
(sizes measured with `du -sm`):

Comparisons require a field-like value on one of the sides,
or both. Change this to require on the LHS or both. There is
realy no reason that I can see to allow the relation to commute,
and it allows removing a lot of unnecessary code and extra tests.
The syntax for protocols and some literals like numbers
and bytes/addresses can be ambiguous. Some protocols can
be parsed as a literal, for example the protocol "fc"
(Fibre Channel) can be parsed as 0xFC.
If a numeric protocol is registered that will also take
precedence over any literal, according to the current
rules, thereby breaking numerical comparisons to that
number. The same for an hypothetical protocol named "true",
etc.
To allow the user to disambiguate this meaning introduce
new syntax.
Any value prefixed with ':' or enclosed in <,> will be treated
as a literal value only. The value :fc or <fc> will always
mean 0xFC, under any context. Never a protocol whose filter
name is "fc".
Likewise any value prefixed with a dot will always be parsed
as an identifier (protocol or protocol field) in the language.
Never any literal value parsed from the token "fc".
This allows the user to be explicit about the meaning,
and between the two explicit methods plus the ambiguous one
it doesn't completely break any one meaning.
The difference can be seen in the following two programs:
Filter: frame == fc
Constants:
Instructions:
00000 READ_TREE frame -> reg#0
00001 IF-FALSE-GOTO 5
00002 READ_TREE fc -> reg#1
00003 IF-FALSE-GOTO 5
00004 ANY_EQ reg#0 == reg#1
00005 RETURN
--------
Filter: frame == :fc
Constants:
00000 PUT_FVALUE fc <FT_PROTOCOL> -> reg#1
Instructions:
00000 READ_TREE frame -> reg#0
00001 IF-FALSE-GOTO 3
00002 ANY_EQ reg#0 == reg#1
00003 RETURN
The filter "frame == fc" is the same as "filter == .fc",
according to the current heuristic, except the first form
will try to parse it as a literal if the name does not
correspond to any registered protocol.
By treating a leading dot as a name in the language we
necessarily disallow writing floats with a leading dot. We
will also disallow writing with an ending dot when using
unparsed values. This is a backward incompatibility but has
the happy side effect of making the expression {1...2}
unambiguous.
This could either mean "1 .. .2" or "1. .. 2". If we require
a leading and ending digit then the meaning is clear:
1.0..0.2 -> 1.0 .. 0.2
Fixes#17731.
Add a separate menu for Strip Headers (similar to Export PDU, but exporting
to an encapsulation other than WIRESHARK_UPPER_PDU everything for
that encapsulation). Add to the usage output of tshark for the "-U"
option which encapsulation a export tap will produce.
Allow export PDU taps to be registered with a wiretap encapsulation
instead of always using WTAP_ENCAP_WIRESHARK_UPPER_PDU. This allows
creating normal capture files that aren't tied to wireshark without
having to do a "editcap -C -L -T", as well as creating files in
formats other than pcapng and pcap with tshark.
Provide a couple sample implementations in Ethernet (WTAP_ENCAP_ETHERNET)
and IP (v4 and v6, WTAP_ENCAP_RAW_IP) that are the most common use cases.
(I can imagine a few others; WTAP_ENCAP_MPEG_2_TS could probably be
useful, for example.) Fixes#15141
Update the text2pcap man page and the Import from Hexdump WSUG
page to clarify how to use it, for grammar, and to remove a few
things that are no longer relevant. (E.g., it's no longer the case that
files without an EOL don't work.)
Fix#15563, #15564.
We keep our various packaging assets in the "packaging" directory. Move
the Debian assets there. dpkg-buildpackage doesn't seem appear to have a
"debian directory path" option, but symlinking worked in my test
container.
Add an option to text2pcap to specify the encapsulation type
via wiretap encapsulation type short names instead of pcap
link layer types, similar to editcap.
Update the documentation to reflect this.
In text2pcap and Import from Hex Dump, allow fake IP headers with
the appropriate versions when the Raw IP, Raw IPv4, and Raw IPv6
encapsulations are specified. In such cases, do not add a dummy
Ethernet header.
Continue to reject other encapsulations besides these, Ethernet,
and Wireshark Upper PDU when appropriate. Add some checks for the
encapsulation type in text_import as well, instead of just assuming
that the callers handle it correctly.
(Yes, the top-level page calls it the "User's Guide", but it has a
section called the "User's Guide", as well as an "Introduction" and
sections about development with Npcap and about the Npcap internals.)
It's not obvious that making a GitLab fork private will disassociate it
from the upstream repository, and it seems to have tripped up a couple
of people. Add a warning to the "Creating Merge Requests" section.
Support all possible file formats that wiretap writes, using the
same "-F" flag that other CLI tools like editcap, mergecap, and tshark
support. Default is still pcap for now; a future commit will switch
to pcapng and remove the "-n" option, to match other CLI tools.
Having some options use DISABLE_ and others ENABLE_ is inconsistent
and difficult to remember. Use ENABLE_ instead consistently.
Frame-larger-than remains an exception.
Add information about the different kind of comparisons with
multiple fields to the wireshark-filter man page.
Add some minimal information to the user guide. It would be
nice to have a section dedicated to this with some examples.
Add the option to enter a filter with an absolute time
value in UTC. Otherwise the value is interpreted in
local time.
The syntax used is an "UTC" suffix, for example:
frame.time == "Dec 31, 2002 13:55:31.3 UTC"
This also changes the behavior of "Apply Selected as filter".
Fields using a local time display type will use local time
and fields using UTC display type will be applied using UTC.

Remove the '-d' option from text2pcap, and move the two levels

Change our developer.gnome.org/glib URLs to
developer-old.gnome.org/glib. The official documentation for GLib
appears to be at https://docs.gtk.org/glib/, but it has a different

exploration IMHO). We can switch to developer-old.gnome.org using a
simple substitution and it still seems to be updated, so do that for
now.
PCRE2 is mature, widely used and widely available. Supporting two
different RE implementations, one of which is unmaintained, is
unnecessary and counter-productive.
PCRE2 is the future of PCRE. The only advantage of GRegex is that
it comes bundled with GLib, which is not an advantage at all.
PCRE2 is widely available, the GRegex abstractions layer are not a
good fit and abstract things that don't need abstracting or that we
could handle better ourselves, there are open bugs (#12997) and
maintenance is spotty at best.
GRegex comes with many of the problems of bundled code, aggravated by
the fact that it completely falls outside of our control.
Deprecate the usage of significant whitespace to separate set elements
(or anywhere else for that matter). This will make the implementation
simpler and cleaner and the language more expressive and user-friendly.
When OpenReceiveChannel/OpenReceiveChannelAck and
StartMediaTransmission/StartMediaTransmissionAck messages are seen, RTP
streams are created so Wireshark decodes related UDP as RTP.
Note: Multichannel commands (e.g. OpenMultiMediaReceiveChannel) are not
processed as I have no sample to test it.
Wireshark defines the relation of equality A == B as
A any_eq B <=> An == Bn for at least one An, Bn.
More accurately I think this is (formally) an equivalence
relation, not true equality.
Whichever definition for "==" we choose we must keep the
definition of "!=" as !(A == B), otherwise it will
lead to logical contradictions like (A == B) AND (A != B)
being true.
Fix the '!=' relation to match the definition of equality:
A != B <=> !(A == B) <=> A all_ne B <=> An != Bn, for
every n.
This has been the recomended way to write "not equal" for a
long time in the documentation, even to the point where != was
deprecated, but it just wasn't implemented consistently in the
language, which has understandably been a persistent source
of confusion. Even a field that is normally well-behaved
with "!=" like "ip.src" or "ip.dst" will produce unexpected
results with encapsulations like IP-over-IP.
The opcode ALL_NE could have been implemented in the compiler
instead using NOT and ANY_EQ but I chose to implement it in
bytecode. It just seemed more elegant and efficient
but the difference was not very significant.
Keep around "~=" for any_ne relation, in case someone depends
on that, and because we don't have an operator for true equality:
A strict_equal B <=> A all_eq B <=> !(A any_ne B).
If there is only one value then any_ne and all_ne are the same
comparison operation.
Implementing this change did not require fixing any tests so it
is unlikely the relation "~=" (any_ne) will be very useful.
Note that the behaviour of the '<' (less than) comparison relation
is a separate, more subtle issue. In the general case the definition
of '<' that is used is only a partial order.
This is a first pass that covers the WSDG, WSUG, man page, a code
comment and a README. Plenty left to do in the Debian files, a few
Lua examples and other misc files.
Matches is a special case that looks on the RHS and tries
to convert every unparsed value to a string, regardless
of the LHS type. This is not how types work in the display
filter. Require double-quotes to avoid ambiguity, because
matches doesn't follow normal Wireshark display filter
type rules. It doesn't need nor benefit from the flexibility
provided by unparsed strings in the syntax.
For matches the RHS is always a literal strings except
if the RHS is also a field name, then it complains of an
incompatible type. This is confusing. No type can be compatible
because no type rules are ever considered. Every unparsed value is
a text string except if it happens to coincide with a field
name it also requires double-quoting or it throws a syntax error,
just to be difficult. We could remove this odd quirk but requiring
double-quotes for regular expressions is a better, more elegant
fix.

It won't work with embedded null bytes so don't try. This is

GString).

EPUB filenames. Some programs (notably Okular) can't open filenames with
extended characters, at least on Windows.
We occasionally get requests to fill in compliance forms and to sign
contracts. Add items for those.
Move the name change question to a historical intrest section.
Automated find/replace of wmem_packet_scope() with pinfo->pool in all

Set a minimum width for our admonition graphics. Otherwise some browsers

This patch adds support for LIN (Local Interconnect Network) as
well as support for:
- Signal PDUs on LIN
- ISO 15765 (ISO TP) on LIN
- TECMP transported LIN is handle like LIN
LIN is a simple automotive fieldbus to connect for example simple
sensors and actuators to an electronic control unit.
This functionality has been added in d2a660d8, where its limitations
are described.
Improvements:
* the Substream index menu now properly filters for available stream numbers;
* Follow Stream selects the first stream in the current packet
Known issue (which is still there): if a packet contains multiple QUIC
streams, then we will show data also from streams other than the selected
one (see #16093)
Note that there is no way to follow a QUIC connection.
Close#17453
