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
The code in medsa_print() assumed that the MEDSA packet always follows
an Ethernet header that is inside the allocated memory buffer. But
this is not always the case, see commit 6bc4429 for rationale.
Eliminate the Ethernet header pointer and just pass on the struct
lladdr_info arguments provided.
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.
For unrecognized LLC packets, don't print the raw packet if we've been
told to suppress that.
For unrecognized Ethertype packets, print the Ethertype if we haven't
already done so.
This header can be used with Marvell switches to direct packets in/out
of a specific port in a tree of interconnected switches. The header
uses its own Ethertype of 0xdada.
By default, only brief output is printed, showing the switch device,
port, and vlan the packet is to/from. However if -e is given, to print
the link-level header, all fields are printed.
