Update libpcap to 1.1.1.vendor/libpcap/1.1.1
Changes: Thu. April 1, 2010. guy@alum.mit.edu. Summary for 1.1.1 libpcap release Update CHANGES to reflect more of the changes in 1.1.0. Fix build on RHEL5. Fix shared library build on AIX. Thu. March 11, 2010. ken@netfunctional.ca/guy@alum.mit.edu. Summary for 1.1.0 libpcap release Add SocketCAN capture support Add Myricom SNF API support Update Endace DAG and ERF support Add support for shared libraries on Solaris, HP-UX, and AIX Build, install, and un-install shared libraries by default; don't build/install shared libraries on platforms we don't support Fix building from a directory other than the source directory Fix compiler warnings and builds on some platforms Update config.guess and config.sub Support monitor mode on mac80211 devices on Linux Fix USB memory-mapped capturing on Linux; it requires a new DLT_ value On Linux, scan /sys/class/net for devices if we have it; scan it, or /proc/net/dev if we don't have /sys/class/net, even if we have getifaddrs(), as it'll find interfaces with no addresses Add limited support for reading pcap-ng files Fix BPF driver-loading error handling on AIX Support getting the full-length interface description on FreeBSD In the lexical analyzer, free up any addrinfo structure we got back from getaddrinfo(). Add support for BPF and libdlpi in OpenSolaris (and SXCE) Hyphenate "link-layer" everywhere Add /sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon to the list of usbmon locations In pcap_read_linux_mmap(), if there are no frames available, call poll() even if we're in non-blocking mode, so we pick up errors, and check for the errors in question. Note that poll() works on BPF devices is Snow Leopard If an ENXIO or ENETDOWN is received, it may mean the device has gone away. Deal with it. For BPF, raise the default capture buffer size to from 32k to 512k Support ps_ifdrop on Linux Added a bunch of #ifdef directives to make wpcap.dll (WinPcap) compile under cygwin. Changes to Linux mmapped captures. Fix bug where create_ring would fail for particular snaplen and buffer size combinations Update pcap-config so that it handles libpcap requiring additional libraries Add workaround for threadsafeness on Windows Add missing mapping for DLT_ENC <-> LINKTYPE_ENC DLT: Add DLT_CAN_SOCKETCAN DLT: Add Solaris ipnet Don't check for DLT_IPNET if it's not defined Add link-layer types for Fibre Channel FC-2 Add link-layer types for Wireless HART Add link-layer types for AOS Add link-layer types for DECT Autoconf fixes (AIX, HP-UX, OSF/1, Tru64 cleanups) Install headers unconditionally, and include vlan.h/bluetooth.h if enabled Autoconf fixes+cleanup Support enabling/disabling bluetooth (--{en,dis}able-bluetooth) Support disabling SITA support (--without-sita) Return -1 on failure to create packet ring (if supported but creation failed) Fix handling of 'any' device, so that it can be opened, and no longer attempt to open it in Monitor mode Add support for snapshot length for USB Memory-Mapped Interface Fix configure and build on recent Linux kernels Fix memory-mapped Linux capture to support pcap_next() and pcap_next_ex() Fixes for Linux USB capture DLT: Add DLT_LINUX_EVDEV DLT: Add DLT_GSMTAP_UM DLT: Add DLT_GSMTAP_ABIS

+For HP-UX 11i (11.11) and later, there are no known issues with

+HP-UX patches to fix packet capture problems
+
+Note that packet-capture programs such as tcpdump may, on HP-UX, not be

+ Two things:
+ 1. You do need a late "LAN products cumulative patch" (e.g. PHNE_18173
+ for s700/10.20).
+ 2. You must use
+echo 'lanc_outbound_promisc_flag/W1' | /usr/bin/adb -w /stand/vmunix /dev/kmem
+ You can insert this e.g. into /sbin/init.d/lan

+ What you are seeing is expected, un-patched, behaviour for an HP-UX
+ system. On 11.00, you need to install the latest lancommon/DLPI
+ patches, and then the latest driver patch for the interface(s) in use.
+ At that point, a miracle happens and you should start seeing outbound

+
+ Thanks a lot. I have this problem on several machines running HPUX
+ 10.20 and 11.00. The machines where patched up before y2k so did not
+ know what to think. Anyway I have now installed PHNE_19766,
+ PHNE_19826, PHNE_20008, PHNE_20735 on the C200 and now I can see the
+ outbound traffic too. Thanks again.
+
+(although those patches may not be the ones to install - there may be
+later patches).

+
+ http://itrc.hp.com/ would be one place to start in a search for the most
+ up-to-date patches for DLPI and the lan driver(s) used on your system (I
+ cannot guess because 9000/800 is too generic - one hs to use the "model"
+ command these days and/or an ioscan command (see manpage) to guess what
+ the drivers (btlan[3456], gelan, etc) might be involved in addition to
+ DLPI.
+
+ Another option is to upgrade to 11i as outbound promiscuous mode support
+ is there in the base OS, no patches required.
+
+Another posting:
+
+ http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=7d6gvn%24b3%241%40ocean.cup.hp.com
+
+indicates that you need to install the optional STREAMS product to do
+captures on HP-UX 9.x:

+ : Has anyone ported tcpdump (or something similar) to HP/UX 9.x?
+
+ I'm reasonably confident that any port of tcpdump to 9.X would require
+ the (then optional) STREAMS product. This would bring DLPI, which is
+ what one uses to access interfaces in promiscuous mode.
+
+ I'm not sure that HP even sells the 9.X STREAMS product any longer,
+ since HP-UX 9.X is off the pricelist (well, maybe 9.10 for the old 68K
+ devices).
+
+ Your best bet is to be up on 10.20 or better if that is at all
+ possible. If your hardware is supported by it, I'd go with HP-UX 11.

+(as per other messages cited here, the ability to see the system's own
+outbound traffic did happen).
+
+Rick Jones reports that HP-UX 11i needs no patches for outbound
+promiscuous mode support.
+
+An additional note, from Jost Martin, for HP-UX 10.20:
+
+ Q: How do I get ethereral on HPUX to capture the _outgoing_ packets
+ of an interface
+ A: You need to get PHNE_20892,PHNE_20725 and PHCO_10947 (or
+ newer, this is as of 4.4.00) and its dependencies. Then you can
+ enable the feature as descibed below:
+
+ Patch Name: PHNE_20892
+ Patch Description: s700 10.20 PCI 100Base-T cumulative patch
+ To trace the outbound packets, please do the following
+ to turn on a global promiscuous switch before running
+ the promiscuous applications like snoop or tcpdump:
+
+ adb -w /stand/vmunix /dev/mem
+ lanc_outbound_promisc_flag/W 1
+ (adb will echo the result showing that the flag has
+ been changed)
+ $quit
+ (Thanks for this part to HP-support, Ratingen)
+
+ The attached hack does this and some security-related stuff
+ (thanks to hildeb@www.stahl.bau.tu-bs.de (Ralf Hildebrandt) who
+ posted the security-part some time ago)
+
+ <<hack_ip_stack>>
+
+ (Don't switch IP-forwarding off, if you need it !)
+ Install the hack as /sbin/init.d/hacl_ip_stack (adjust
+ permissions !) and make a sequencing-symlink
+ /sbin/rc2.d/S350hack_ip_stack pointing to this script.
+ Now all this is done on every reboot.
+
+According to Rick Jones, the global promiscuous switch also has to be
+turned on for HP-UX 11.00, but not for 11i - and, in fact, the switch
+doesn't even exist on 11i.
