a particular type, rather than taking a varargs list, along the lines of
the "proto_tree_add_XXX_format()" routines.
Replace most calls to "proto_tree_add_item()" and
"proto_tree_add_item_hidden()" with calls to those routines.
Rename "proto_tree_add_item()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden()" to
"proto_tree_add_item_old()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden_old()", and
add new "proto_tree_add_item()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden()"
routines that don't take the item to be added as an argument - instead,
they fetch the argument from the packet whose tvbuff was handed to them,
from the offset handed to them.

Add exceptions routines.
Convert proto_tree_add_*() routines to require tvbuff_t* argument.
Convert all dissectors to pass NULL argument ("NullTVB" macro == NULL) as
the tvbuff_t* argument to proto_tree_add_*() routines.
dissect_packet() creates a tvbuff_t, wraps the next dissect call in
a TRY block, will print "Short Frame" on the proto_tree if a BoundsError
exception is caught.
The FDDI dissector is converted to use tvbuff's.

to a type requiring 2-byte or better alignment and was then
dereferenced; doing that requires that the code generated by your
compiler not trap if it makes an unaligned reference, and on most RISC
processors the code generated by the compiler *will* trap on an
unaligned reference by default.

routines, which are called before a dissection pass is made over all the
packets in a capture - the "init" routine would clear out any state
information that needs to be initialized before such a dissection pass.
Make the NCP, SMB, AFS, and ONC RPC dissectors register their "init"
routines with that mechanism, have the code that reads in a capture file
call the routine that calls all registered "init" routines rather than
calling a wired-in set of "init" routines, and also have the code that
runs a filtering or colorizing pass over all the packets call that
routine, as a filtering or colorizing pass is a dissection pass.
Have the ONC RPC "init" routine zero out the table of RPC calls, so that
it completely erases any state from the previous dissection pass (so
that, for example, if you run a filtering pass, it doesn't mark any
non-duplicate packets as duplicates because it remembers them from the
previous pass).

dynamically-assigned "ett_" integer values, assigned by
"proto_register_subtree_array()"; this:
obviates the need to update "packet.h" whenever you add a new
subtree type - you only have to add a call to
"proto_register_subtree_array()" to a "register" routine and an
array of pointers to "ett_", if they're not already there, and
add a pointer to the new "ett_" variable to the array, if they
are there;
would allow run-time-loaded dissectors to allocate subtree types
when they're loaded.

Replace "add_to_conversation()" with:
"conversation_new()", which creates a new conversation, given
source and destination addresses and ports, and returns a
pointer to the structure for the conversation;
"find_conversation()", which tries to find a conversation for
given source and destination addresses and ports, and returns a
pointer to the structure for the conversation if found, and a
null pointer if not found.
Add a private data pointer field to the conversation structure, and have
"conversation_new()" take an argument that specifies what to set that
pointer to; that lets clients of the conversation code hang arbitrary
data off the conversation (e.g., a hash table of protocol requests and
replies, in case the protocol is a request/reply protocol wherein the
reply doesn't say what type of request it's a reply to, and you need
that information to dissect the reply).

structure to "dl_src"/"dl_dst", "net_src"/"net_dst", and "src"/"dst"
addresses, where an address is an address type, an address length in
bytes, and a pointer to that many bytes.
"dl_{src,dst}" are the link-layer source/destination; "net_{src,dst}"
are the network-layer source/destination; "{src,dst}" are the
source/destination from the highest of those two layers that we have in
the packet.
Add a port type to "packet_info" as well, specifying whether it's a TCP
or UDP port.
Don't set the address and port columns in the dissector functions; just
set the address and port members of the "packet_info" structure. Set
the columns in "fill_in_columns()"; this means that if we're showing
COL_{DEF,RES,UNRES}_SRC" or "COL_{DEF,RES,UNRES}_DST", we only generate
the string from "src" or "dst", we don't generate a string for the
link-layer address and then overwrite it with a string for the
network-layer address (generating those strings costs CPU).
Add support for "conversations", where a "conversation" is (at present)
a source and destination address and a source and destination port. (In
the future, we may support "conversations" above the transport layer,
e.g. a TFTP conversation, where the first packet goes from the client to
the TFTP server port, but the reply comes back from a different port,
and all subsequent packets go between the client address/port and the
server address/new port, or an NFS conversation, which might include
lock manager, status monitor, and mount packets, as well as NFS
packets.)
Currently, all we support is a call that takes the source and
destination address/port pairs, looks them up in a hash table, and:
if nothing is found, creates a new entry in the hash table, and
assigns it a unique 32-bit conversation ID, and returns that
conversation ID;
if an entry is found, returns its conversation ID.
Use that in the SMB and AFS code to keep track of individual SMB or AFS
conversations. We need to match up requests and replies, as, for
certain replies, the operation code for the request to which it's a
reply doesn't show up in the reply - you have to find the request with a
matching transaction ID. Transaction IDs are per-conversation, so the
hash table for requests should include a conversation ID and transaction
ID as the key.
This allows SMB and AFS decoders to handle IPv4 or IPv6 addresses
transparently (and should allow the SMB decoder to handle NetBIOS atop
other protocols as well, if the source and destination address and port
values in the "packet_info" structure are set appropriately).
In the "Follow TCP Connection" code, check to make sure that the
addresses are IPv4 addressses; ultimately, that code should be changed
to use the conversation code instead, which will let it handle IPv6
transparently.
