103 headers
104 Do filtering on USB and Bluetooth capturing

147 it, or /proc/net/dev if we don't have /sys/class/net, even if
148 we have getifaddrs(), as it'll find interfaces with no
149 addresses

158 In pcap_read_linux_mmap(), if there are no frames available, call
159 poll() even if we're in non-blocking mode, so we pick up
160 errors, and check for the errors in question.
161 Note that poll() works on BPF devices is Snow Leopard
162 If an ENXIO or ENETDOWN is received, it may mean the device has
163 gone away. Deal with it.
164 For BPF, raise the default capture buffer size to from 32k to 512k
165 Support ps_ifdrop on Linux
166 Added a bunch of #ifdef directives to make wpcap.dll (WinPcap) compile

220 can print better diagnostic information
221 Return PCAP_ERROR_PERM_DENIED if we don't have permission to open a device, so
222 applications can tell the user they need to go play with permissions

369 Tuesday January 9, 2001. guy@alum.mit.edu. Summary for 0.6 release
371 New Linux libpcap implementation, which, in 2.2 and later
372 kernels, uses PF_PACKET sockets and supports kernel packet
373 filtering (if compiled into the kernel), and supports the "any"
374 device for capturing on all interfaces. Cleans up promiscuous
375 mode better on pre-2.2 kernels, and has various other fixes
376 (handles 2.4 ARPHRD_IEEE802_TR, handles ISDN devices better,
377 doesn't show duplicate packets on loopback interface, etc.).
379 Fixed HP-UX libpcap implementation to correctly get the PPA for
380 an interface, to allow interfaces to be opened by interface name.
382 libpcap savefiles have system-independent link-layer type values
383 in the header, rather than sometimes platform-dependent DLT_
384 values, to make it easier to exchange capture files between
385 different OSes.
387 Non-standard capture files produced by some Linux tcpdumps, e.g.
388 the one from Red Hat Linux 6.2 and later, can now be read.
390 Updated autoconf stock files.
392 Filter expressions can filter on VLAN IDs and various OSI
393 protocols, and work on Token Ring (with non-source-routed
394 packets).
396 "pcap_open_dead()" added to allow compiling filter expressions
397 to pcap code without opening a capture device or capture file.
399 Header files fixed to allow use in C++ programs.
401 Removed dependancy on native headers for packet layout.
402 Removed Linux specific headers that were shipped.
404 Security fixes: Strcpy replaced with strlcpy, sprintf replaced
405 with snprintf.
407 Fixed bug that could cause subsequent "pcap_compile()"s to fail
408 erroneously after one compile failed.
410 Assorted other bug fixes.
412 README.aix and README.linux files added to describe
413 platform-specific issues.
415 "getifaddrs()" rather than SIOCGIFCONF used, if available.
417 v0.5 Sat Jun 10 11:09:15 PDT 2000
419 itojun@iijlab.net
420 - Brought in KAME IPv6/IPsec bpf compiler.
421 - Fixes for NetBSD.
422 - Support added for OpenBSD DLT_LOOP and BSD/OS DLT_C_HDLC (Cisco HDLC),
423 and changes to work around different BSDs having different DLT_ types
424 with the same numeric value.
426 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>
427 - Building outside the source code tree fixed.
428 - Changed to write out time stamps with 32-bit seconds and microseconds
429 fields, regardless of whether those fields are 32 bits or 64 bits in
430 the OS's native "struct timeval".
431 - Changed "pcap_lookupdev()" to dynamically grow the buffer into which
432 the list of interfaces is read as necessary in order to hold the
433 entire list.
435 Greg Troxel <gdt@ir.bbn.com>
436 - Added a new "pcap_compile_nopcap()", which lets you compile a filter
437 expression into a BPF program without having an open live capture or
438 capture file.
440 v0.4 Sat Jul 25 12:40:09 PDT 1998
442 - Fix endian problem with DLT_NULL devices. From FreeBSD via Bill
443 Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com)

450 options to disable gcc and to force a particular packet capture type.
452 - Added support for Fore ATM interfaces (qaa and fa) under IRIX. Thanks
453 to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu)
455 - Change Linux PPP and SLIP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not
456 supply any "link layer" data.
458 - Change Linux to use SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl to determine link layer type.
459 Thanks to Thomas Sailer (sailer@ife.ee.ethz.ch)
461 - Change IRIX PPP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not supply any

471 Richard Allen (ra@hp.is) and Steinar Haug (sthaug@nethelp.no)
473 - Fddi supports broadcast as reported by Jeff Macdonald
474 (jeff@iacnet.com). Also correct ieee802 and arcnet.
476 - Determine Linux pcap buffer size at run time or else it might not be
477 big enough for some interface types (e.g. FDDI). Thanks to Jes
478 Sorensen (Jes.Sorensen@cern.ch)

482 - Document promisc argument to pcap_open_live(). Reported by Ian Marsh

486 (laik@gunpowder.stanford.edu)

489 interfaces on multi-homed hosts. Thanks to Kevin Lai
490 (laik@gunpowder.stanford.edu)

493 (rroberts@muller.com)
495 - Fixed an uninitialized memory reference found by Kent Vander Velden
496 (graphix@iastate.edu)
498 - Fixed lex pattern for IDs to allow leading digits. As reported by
499 Theo de Raadt (deraadt@cvs.openbsd.org)
501 - Fixed Linux include file problems when using GNU libc.
503 - Ifdef ARPHRD_FDDI since not all versions of the Linux kernel have it.
504 Reported reported by Eric Jacksch (jacksch@tenebris.ca)
506 - Fixed bug in pcap_dispatch() that kept it from returning on packet
507 timeouts.
509 - Changed ISLOOPBACK() macro when IFF_LOOPBACK isn't available to check

514 avoid problems with 64 bit longs on the alpha. Thanks to Cristian
