Summary for 0.6 release 428 429 New Linux libpcap implementation, which, in 2.2 and later 430 kernels, uses PF_PACKET sockets and supports kernel packet 431 filtering (if compiled into the kernel), and supports the "any" 432 device for capturing on all interfaces. Cleans up promiscuous 433 mode better on pre-2.2 kernels, and has various other fixes 434 (handles 2.4 ARPHRD_IEEE802_TR, handles ISDN devices better, 435 doesn't show duplicate packets on loopback interface, etc.). 436 437 Fixed HP-UX libpcap implementation to correctly get the PPA for 438 an interface, to allow interfaces to be opened by interface name. 439 440 libpcap savefiles have system-independent link-layer type values 441 in the header, rather than sometimes platform-dependent DLT_ 442 values, to make it easier to exchange capture files between 443 different OSes. 444 445 Non-standard capture files produced by some Linux tcpdumps, e.g. 446 the one from Red Hat Linux 6.2 and later, can now be read. 447 448 Updated autoconf stock files. 449 450 Filter expressions can filter on VLAN IDs and various OSI 451 protocols, and work on Token Ring (with non-source-routed 452 packets). 453 454 "pcap_open_dead()" added to allow compiling filter expressions 455 to pcap code without opening a capture device or capture file. 456 457 Header files fixed to allow use in C++ programs. 458 459 Removed dependancy on native headers for packet layout. 460 Removed Linux specific headers that were shipped. 461 462 Security fixes: Strcpy replaced with strlcpy, sprintf replaced 463 with snprintf. 464 465 Fixed bug that could cause subsequent "pcap_compile()"s to fail 466 erroneously after one compile failed. 467 468 Assorted other bug fixes. 469 470 README.aix and README.linux files added to describe 471 platform-specific issues. 472 473 "getifaddrs()" rather than SIOCGIFCONF used, if available. 474 475v0.5 Sat Jun 10 11:09:15 PDT 2000 476 477itojun@iijlab.net 478- Brought in KAME IPv6/IPsec bpf compiler. 479- Fixes for NetBSD. 480- Support added for OpenBSD DLT_LOOP and BSD/OS DLT_C_HDLC (Cisco HDLC), 481 and changes to work around different BSDs having different DLT_ types 482 with the same numeric value. 483 484Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se> 485- Building outside the source code tree fixed. 486- Changed to write out time stamps with 32-bit seconds and microseconds 487 fields, regardless of whether those fields are 32 bits or 64 bits in 488 the OS's native "struct timeval". 489- Changed "pcap_lookupdev()" to dynamically grow the buffer into which 490 the list of interfaces is read as necessary in order to hold the 491 entire list. 492 493Greg Troxel <gdt@ir.bbn.com> 494- Added a new "pcap_compile_nopcap()", which lets you compile a filter 495 expression into a BPF program without having an open live capture or 496 capture file. 497 498v0.4 Sat Jul 25 12:40:09 PDT 1998 499 500- Fix endian problem with DLT_NULL devices. From FreeBSD via Bill 501 Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com) 502 503- Fix alignment problem with FDDI under DLPI. This was causing core 504 dumps under Solaris. 505 506- Added configure options to disable flex and bison. Resulted from a 507 bug report by barnett@grymoire.crd.ge.com (Bruce Barnett). Also added 508 options to disable gcc and to force a particular packet capture type. 509 510- Added support for Fore ATM interfaces (qaa and fa) under IRIX. Thanks 511 to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu) 512 513- Change Linux PPP and SLIP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not 514 supply any "link layer" data. 515 516- Change Linux to use SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl to determine link layer type. 517 Thanks to Thomas Sailer (sailer@ife.ee.ethz.ch) 518 519- Change IRIX PPP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not supply any 520 "link layer" data. 521 522- Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header 523 formats. 524 525- Added some new SGI snoop interface types. Thanks to Steve Alexander 526 (sca@refugee.engr.sgi.com) 527 528- Fixes for HP-UX 10.20 (which is similar to HP-UX 9). Thanks to 529 Richard Allen (ra@hp.is) and Steinar Haug (sthaug@nethelp.no) 530 531- Fddi supports broadcast as reported by Jeff Macdonald 532 (jeff@iacnet.com). Also correct ieee802 and arcnet. 533 534- Determine Linux pcap buffer size at run time or else it might not be 535 big enough for some interface types (e.g. FDDI). Thanks to Jes 536 Sorensen (Jes.Sorensen@cern.ch) 537 538- Fix some linux alignment problems. 539 540- Document promisc argument to pcap_open_live().
