If the interface supports monitor mode, when printing the list of link-layer types, indicate whether they're fetched in monitor mode or not, as tcpdump 4.1.x does. svn path=/trunk/; revision=32789

* For the Wireshark/TShark -> dumpcap signal pipe on Windows, use a namedGerald Combs2007-10-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | pipe instead of stdin. Add an argument (currently the parent PID) back to the "-Z" flag and use it to construct the pipe name. This lets us pass the parent's stdin handle to dumpcap, which lets us capture from stdin on Windows. Add a comment about checking for the parent process. In capture_loop.c, remove the wait_forever argument from cap_pipe_select() since it was always FALSE. Set the timeout under Windows to 250 ms instead of 250000 ms. svn path=/trunk/; revision=23279

* One more step in privilege separation.Gerald Combs2007-06-111-7/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a capture_interface_list(), which works similar to get_interface_list() except that it forks dumpcap instead of calling the pcap routines directly. Use it in the GUI. Add a "-I" flag to dumpcap, which prints out verbose interface information. Tested under Windows and Linux. svn path=/trunk/; revision=22071

| | | | | | | | | | by dumpcap and Ethereal (so that, on UN*X, the child process can report a detailed "can't exec dumpcap" error). Rename most of the "sync_pipe_XXX_to_parent()" routines, as they're also in Tethereal, which doesn't have a sync pipe. svn path=/trunk/; revision=17789

* Pass two strings in capture child messages, so the child can sendGuy Harris2006-03-051-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | primary and secondary error messages and let the parent worry about how to display them. This means dumpcap doesn't need stub routines for generating the formatting tags for the primary and secondary messages. Have a separate message for capture filter errors, so that the parent can check whether the capture filter looks like a display filter and report the appropriate message. This means that dumpcap doesn't need a stub routine for compiling display filters (a stub routine also means that Ethereal won't do the check for capture filters that look like display filters!). svn path=/trunk/; revision=17465

* the point of no return ...Ulf Lamping2006-02-111-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | using dumpcap as the capture child for Ethereal. dumpcap is a plain console application now, even for Win32 (so no WinMain, create_console and special piping stuff reguired). The undocumented command line option -Z will switch dumpcap into "child mode", using binary instead of plain text output messages to communicate with a parent Ethereal. Ethereal's main.c no longer needs to distinguish between child mode or not, so some simplifying here. capture_sync.c has to call dumpcap in a "hidden window" mode using CreateProcess instead of spawnvp, otherwise an uggly console window would appear. The handles created by _pipe doesn't seem to be inheritable for this function, using CreatePipe instead. The file capture_loop.c is only needed by dumpcap, removed from Ethereal link objects. Some debugging aid added and other minor cleanup done. svn path=/trunk/; revision=17256

| | | | | | | | | | capture_loop.c to capture_info.c and call it from capture.c (instead of capture_loop.c). This way, the capture child don't need to now any of the packet_counter things (no epan/packet.h and all alike). Currently the capture_info code will always open another wiretap file instance to build it's own counter values. This isn't optimized for now (next step: use data from cf_continue_tail() somehow). svn path=/trunk/; revision=16669

| | | | | | | | idea). Do some more "housekeeping" in the capturing part. Hopefully the unspecified forward declaration of capture_options_t in main.h is portable, but buildbot will tell me.
