The exceptions are currently:
Some EXTRACT_ in print-juniper.c, not used on packet buffer pointer.
An EXTRACT_BE_U_3 in addrtoname.c, not always used on packet buffer
pointer.
This can prevent bizarre failures if, for example, you've done a
configuration in the top-level source directory, leaving behind one
config.h file, and then do an out-of-tree build in another directory,
with different configuration options. This way, we always pick up the
same config.h, in the build directory.
Use EXTRACT_U_1() as required by those changes. Remove
no-longer-necessary & operators from other EXTRACT_ calls.
While we're at it, add MAC_ADDR_LEN to netdissect.h, and use it instead
of ETHER_ADDR_LEN; eliminate ETHER_ADDR_LEN.
Move the maximum Ethernet length field value to ethertype.h, under the
name MAX_ETHERNET_LENGTH_VAL.
Move the Ethernet header structure, and the #define for the Ethernet
header length, to print-ether.c; in non-Ethernet dissectors that were
using the Ethernet header structure, just declare two nd_mac_addr
variables for the source and destination MAC addresses and use them
instead of the Ethernet header (we don't need the type field there).
These changes leave nothing in ether.h, so eliminate it.
Now all the macros have a name meaning a count in bytes.
With _S_: signed, _U_: unsigned
e.g.:
EXTRACT_BE_32BITS -> EXTRACT_BE_U_4
EXTRACT_LE_32BITS -> EXTRACT_LE_U_4
...
EXTRACT_BE_INT32 -> EXTRACT_BE_S_4
and have:
EXTRACT_8BITS -> EXTRACT_U_1
EXTRACT_INT8 -> EXTRACT_S_1
If a protocol that runs under a link-layer protocol would print the
link-layer addresses for the packet as source and destination addresses
for the packet, don't have it blithely assume those link-layer addresses
are present or are at a particular offset from the beginning of that
protocol's data; Ethertypes, for example, are used by a number of
protocols, not all of which have Ethernet headers and not all of which
have any MAC headers.
Instead, pass the printers for those protocols structures with a pointer
to the address data and a pointer to a routine that prints the address.
Fixes some heap overflows found with American Fuzzy Lop by Hanno Böck.
with the tag '\summary:' for greping.
Remark: Currently some printers have no summary line.
Moreover:
Summarize all printers with a single line in INSTALL.txt
Switch RRCP and BGP functions from tok2strbuf() to tok2str() to avoid
unnecessary local buffer management. The latter function does it in a
way to allow up to 4 calls to itself from printf(). After that
tok2strbuf() remains used by tok2str() only and can be refined later.
Remove a duplicate macro and place the remaining definition into the
right file.
The purpose of this macro was to enable the file-by-file switch to NDO,
after which only tcpdump.c had a use of it and the definitions guarded
by it. Update tcpdump.c not to require them any more and dismiss the
unused definitions.
And, as we require at least autoconf 2.61, and as autoconf 2.61 and
later have AC_TYPE_UINTn_T and AC_TYPE_INTn_T macros, we use them to
define the uintN_t and intN_t macros if the system doesn't define them
for us.
This lets us get rid of bitypes.h as well.
Have them take a netdissect_options * argument, and get the "no name
resolution" flag from it.
Move the declaration of dnaddr_string to addrtoname.h, along with the
other XXX-to-string routines.
Remove lots of $Header's and a few $Id's that all belong to the former
CVS repository of tcpdump itself. These keywords have been frozen since
the migration to git in late 2008.
ndo_error, and ndo_warning function pointers in a netdissect_options
structure.
Fix some errors adding that caught.
Have the RRCP dissector extract fields itself, with the EXTRACT_ macros
and a u_char pointer, rather than printing numbers from a structure
which doesn't put structure members on natural boundaries
(__attribute__((packed)) doesn't help, as not all compilers support it)
- note also that not all processors support dereferencing unaligned
pointers, e.g. SPARC - and assuming some fields are in the "right" byte
order. Also have it check whether data is available in the packet
before referring to it.
