3v0.4 Sat Jul 25 12:40:09 PDT 1998
4
5- Fix endian problem with DLT_NULL devices. From FreeBSD via Bill
6  Fenner (fenner@parc.xerox.com)
7
8- Fix alignment problem with FDDI under DLPI. This was causing core
9  dumps under Solaris.
10
11- Added configure options to disable flex and bison. Resulted from a
12  bug report by barnett@grymoire.crd.ge.com (Bruce Barnett). Also added
13  options to disable gcc and to force a particular packet capture type.
14
15- Added support for Fore ATM interfaces (qaa and fa) under IRIX. Thanks
16  to John Hawkinson (jhawk@mit.edu)
17
18- Change Linux PPP and SLIP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not
19  supply any "link layer" data.
20
21- Change Linux to use SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl to determine link layer type.
22  Thanks to Thomas Sailer (sailer@ife.ee.ethz.ch)
23
24- Change IRIX PPP to use DLT_RAW since the kernel does not supply any
25  "link layer" data.
26
27- Modified to support the new BSD/OS 2.1 PPP and SLIP link layer header
28  formats.
29
30- Added some new SGI snoop interface types. Thanks to Steve Alexander
31  (sca@refugee.engr.sgi.com)
32
33- Fixes for HP-UX 10.20 (which is similar to HP-UX 9). Thanks to
34  Richard Allen (ra@hp.is) and Steinar Haug (sthaug@nethelp.no)
35
36- Fddi supports broadcast as reported by Jeff Macdonald
37  (jeff@iacnet.com). Also correct ieee802 and arcnet.
38
39- Determine Linux pcap buffer size at run time or else it might not be
40  big enough for some interface types (e.g. FDDI). Thanks to Jes
41  Sorensen (Jes.Sorensen@cern.ch)
42
43- Fix some linux alignment problems.
44
45- Document promisc argument to pcap_open_live(). Reported by Ian Marsh
46  (ianm@sics.se)
47
48- Support Metricom radio packets under Linux. Thanks to Kevin Lai
49  (laik@gunpowder.stanford.edu)
50
51- Bind to interface name under Linux to avoid packets from multiple
52  interfaces on multi-homed hosts. Thanks to Kevin Lai
53  (laik@gunpowder.stanford.edu)
54
55- Change L_SET to SEEK_SET for HP-UX. Thanks to Roland Roberts
56  (rroberts@muller.com)
57
58- Fixed an uninitialized memory reference found by Kent Vander Velden
59  (graphix@iastate.edu)
60
61- Fixed lex pattern for IDs to allow leading digits. As reported by
62  Theo de Raadt (deraadt@cvs.openbsd.org)
63
64- Fixed Linux include file problems when using GNU libc.
65
66- Ifdef ARPHRD_FDDI since not all versions of the Linux kernel have it.
67  Reported reported by Eric Jacksch (jacksch@tenebris.ca)
68
69- Fixed bug in pcap_dispatch() that kept it from returning on packet
70  timeouts.
71
72- Changed ISLOOPBACK() macro when IFF_LOOPBACK isn't available to check
73  for "lo" followed by an eos or digit (newer versions of Linux
74  apparently call the loopback "lo" instead of "lo0").
75
76- Fixed Linux networking include files to use ints instead of longs to
77  avoid problems with 64 bit longs on the alpha. Thanks to Cristian
78  Gafton (gafton@redhat.com)
79

170  by Gary Veum (veum@boa.gsfc.nasa.gov).
171

173  don't support live package capture. This feature resulting from a
174  request from Jan van Oorschot (j.p.m.voorschot@et.tudelft.nl).
175
176- Make bpf_compile() reentrant. Fix thanks to Pascal Hennequin
177  (Pascal.Hennequin@hugo.int-evry.fr).

194  Bertilson (scott@unet.umn.edu).
195
196- Declare sys_errlist "const char *const" to avoid problems under
197  FreeBSD. Resulted from report by jher@eden.com.
198
199v0.0.6 Fri Apr 28 04:07:13 PDT 1995
200
201- Add missing variable declaration missing from 0.0.6
202
203v0.0.5 Fri Apr 28 00:22:21 PDT 1995
204
205- Workaround for problems when pcap_read() returns 0 due to the timeout
206  expiring.
207
208v0.0.4 Thu Apr 20 20:41:48 PDT 1995
209
210- Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.
211
212- Fixed a bug in pcap_next(); if pcap_dispatch() returns 0, pcap_next()
213  should also return 0. Thanks to Richard Stevens (rstevens@noao.edu).
214
215- Fixed configure to test for snoop before dlpi to avoid problems under
216  IRIX 5. Thanks to J. Eric Townsend (jet@abulafia.genmagic.com).
217
218- Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
219
220- Fix two bugs related to the Solaris pre-5.3.2 bufmod bug; handle
221  savefiles that have more than snapshot bytes of data in them (so we
222  can read old savefiles) and avoid writing such files.
223
224- Added checkioctl which is used with gcc to check that the
225  "fixincludes" script has been run.
226
227v0.0.3 Tue Oct 18 18:13:46 PDT 1994
228
229- Fixed configure to test for snoop before dlpi to avoid problems under

243  wasn't being initialized sometimes resulting in an "NIOCSFLAGS:
244  Invalid argument" error under OSF/1. Reported by Matt Day
245  (mday@artisoft.com) and Danny Mitzel (dmitzel@whitney.hitc.com).
246
