Add a new tap flag to indicate that a tap listener is just a "dissector helper",
that is, a tap which is used by a dissector to help it do its dissection but
does not, itself, require dissection.
Use this new flag in the dissectors which register taps.
Remove the (now-unused) have_tap_listeners() function.

The supplied patch adds a new option -O, which specifies a list of protocols
(names can be found with the "-G protocols" option) to be fully decoded while
the others only show the layer header.

sequence of frame_data structures, indexed by the frame number. Extract
the relevant bits of the capture_file data structure and move them to
the frame_data_sequence, and move the relevant code from cfile.c and
tweak it to handle frame_data_sequence structures.
Have a possibly-null pointer to a frame_data_sequence structure in the
capture_file structure; if it's null, we aren't keeping a sequence of
frame_data structures (we don't keep that sequence when we're doing
one-pass processing in TShark).
Nothing in libwireshark should care about a capture_file structure; get
rid of some unnecessary includes of cfile.h.

This lets us get rid of the per-frame_data-structure prev and next
pointers, saving memory (at least according to Activity Monitor's report
of the virtual address space size on my Snow Leopard machine, it's a
noticeable saving), and lets us look up frame_data structures by frame
number in O(log2(number of frames)) time rather than O(number of frames)
time. It seems to take more CPU time when reading in the file, but
seems to go from "finished reading in all the packets" to "displaying
the packets" faster and seems to free up the frame_data structures
faster when closing the file.
It *is* doing more copying, currently, as we now don't allocate the
frame_data structure until after the packet has passed the read filter,
so that might account for the additional CPU time.
(Oh, and, for what it's worth, on an LP64 platform, a frame_data
structure is exactly 128 bytes long. However, there's more stuff to
remove, so the power-of-2 size is not guaranteed to remain, and it's not
a power-of-2 size on an ILP32 platform.)
It also means we don't need GLib 2.10 or later for the two-pass mode in
TShark.
It also means some code in the TCP dissector that was checking
pinfo->fd->next to see if it's NULL, in order to see if this is the last
packet in the file, no longer works, but that wasn't guaranteed to work
anyway:
we might be doing a one-pass read through the capture in TShark;
we might be dissecting the frame while we're reading in the
packets for the first time in Wireshark;
we might be doing a live capture in Wireshark;
in which case packets might be prematurely considered "the last packet".
#if 0 the no-longer-working tests, pending figuring out a better way of
doing it.

by the gunzipping code. Have it also supply a err_info string, and
report it. Have file_error() supply an err_info string.
Put "the file" - or, for WTAP_ERR_DECOMPRESS, "the compressed file", to
suggest a decompression error - into the rawshark and tshark errors,
along the lines of what other programs print.
Fix a case in the Netscaler code where we weren't fetching the error
code on a read failure.

may happen if, when reading a compressed file, we find an error in the
file's contents past the last packet (e.g., the file being cut short so
that we can't get a full buffer worth of compressed data), and that
reporting of that error is delayed (so that you can get all of the
packets that we *can* decompress). Check for those errors, at least on
the sequential read pass (the only errors we should see when closing the
random stream are errors we've already seen in the sequential stream).

"hosts" file and write those records to a capture file.
This uses "struct addrinfo" in many places and probably won't compile on
some platforms.

keys to have _uint in their names, to match the routines that handle
dissector tables with string keys. (Using _port can confuse people into
thinking they're intended solely for use with TCP/UDP/etc. ports when,
in fact, they work better for things such as Ethernet types, where the
binding of particular values to particular protocols are a lot
stronger.)

libwireshark into libwireshark, and call it only in programs linked with
libwireshark. That way, programs that don't link with libwireshark
don't have to link with libgcrypt or libgnutls solely so that they can
say that they're linked with a particular version of libgcrypt or
libgnutls.
Don't link dumpcap with libgcrypt or libgnutls any more.

filters.
From me: don't exit immediately if dumpcap failed, print out information
from taps and the like.

taps, etc., so we at least print the statistics for the packets we
*could* read.
Also, if we're printing packet data, and the standard output and
standard error are going to the same place, before printing the error
message for that error, flush the standard output and print a newline to
the standard error, so the error appears after all the packet data, and
has a newline separating it from the packet data.
This fixes bug 4845.

back out the change to check its return value until we fix that.
Also back out the test suite changes to look for an error exit for
invalid capture filters and interfaces.

Return 2 for a capture error - we mainly use 1 for command-line syntax
errors (rather than, say, filter syntax errors or an invalid interface).
Now that TShark exits with an error status when given an invalid capture
filter or invalid interface, check for "error" rather than "success" as
an exit status.

is just an indication that the capture child exited; don't treat it as
an error, unless the child process exits with an abnormal status.
As tshark sends a "stop capture" indication to the child when it's
^C'ed, the child will exit and we'll get an EOF from the capture pipe;
don't make SIGINT etc. interrupt system calls, so they don't cause reads
from the capture pipe to get EINTR errors.
