34 * Known problems with 2.0[.x] kernels:
36 * - The loopback device gives every packet twice; on 2.2[.x] kernels,
37 * if we use PF_PACKET, we can filter out the transmitted version
38 * of the packet by using data in the "sockaddr_ll" returned by
39 * "recvfrom()", but, on 2.0[.x] kernels, we have to use
40 * PF_INET/SOCK_PACKET, which means "recvfrom()" supplies a
41 * "sockaddr_pkt" which doesn't give us enough information to let
44 * - We have to set the interface's IFF_PROMISC flag ourselves, if
45 * we're to run in promiscuous mode, which means we have to turn
46 * it off ourselves when we're done; the kernel doesn't keep track
47 * of how many sockets are listening promiscuously, which means
48 * it won't get turned off automatically when no sockets are
49 * listening promiscuously. We catch "pcap_close()" and, for
50 * interfaces we put into promiscuous mode, take them out of
51 * promiscuous mode - which isn't necessarily the right thing to
52 * do, if another socket also requested promiscuous mode between
53 * the time when we opened the socket and the time when we close
56 * - MSG_TRUNC isn't supported, so you can't specify that "recvfrom()"
57 * return the amount of data that you could have read, rather than
58 * the amount that was returned, so we can't just allocate a buffer
59 * whose size is the snapshot length and pass the snapshot length
60 * as the byte count, and also pass MSG_TRUNC, so that the return
61 * value tells us how long the packet was on the wire.
63 * This means that, if we want to get the actual size of the packet,
64 * so we can return it in the "len" field of the packet header,
65 * we have to read the entire packet, not just the part that fits
66 * within the snapshot length, and thus waste CPU time copying data
67 * from the kernel that our caller won't see.
69 * We have to get the actual size, and supply it in "len", because
70 * otherwise, the IP dissector in tcpdump, for example, will complain
71 * about "truncated-ip", as the packet will appear to have been
72 * shorter, on the wire, than the IP header said it should have been.

105 * If PF_PACKET is defined, we can use {SOCK_RAW,SOCK_DGRAM}/PF_PACKET
106 * sockets rather than SOCK_PACKET sockets.
108 * To use them, we include <linux/if_packet.h> rather than
109 * <netpacket/packet.h>; we do so because
111 * some Linux distributions (e.g., Slackware 4.0) have 2.2 or
112 * later kernels and libc5, and don't provide a <netpacket/packet.h>
115 * not all versions of glibc2 have a <netpacket/packet.h> file
116 * that defines stuff needed for some of the 2.4-or-later-kernel
117 * features, so if the system has a 2.4 or later kernel, we
118 * still can't use those features.
120 * We're already including a number of other <linux/XXX.h> headers, and
121 * this code is Linux-specific (no other OS has PF_PACKET sockets as
122 * a raw packet capture mechanism), so it's not as if you gain any
123 * useful portability by using <netpacket/packet.h>
125 * XXX - should we just include <linux/if_packet.h> even if PF_PACKET
126 * isn't defined? It only defines one data structure in 2.0.x, so
127 * it shouldn't cause any problems.
130 # include <linux/if_packet.h>
133 * On at least some Linux distributions (for example, Red Hat 5.2),
134 * there's no <netpacket/packet.h> file, but PF_PACKET is defined if
135 * you include <sys/socket.h>, but <linux/if_packet.h> doesn't define
136 * any of the PF_PACKET stuff such as "struct sockaddr_ll" or any of
137 * the PACKET_xxx stuff.

340 * In the 2.0[.x] kernel, a "recvfrom()" on
341 * a SOCK_PACKET socket, with MSG_TRUNC set, will
342 * return the number of bytes read, so if we pass
343 * a length based on the snapshot length, it'll
344 * return the number of bytes from the packet
345 * copied to userland, not the actual length
348 * This means that, for example, the IP dissector
349 * in tcpdump will get handed a packet length less
350 * than the length in the IP header, and will
351 * complain about "truncated-ip".
353 * So we don't bother trying to copy from the
354 * kernel only the bytes in which we're interested,
355 * but instead copy them all, just as the older
356 * versions of libpcap for Linux did.
358 * The buffer therefore needs to be big enough to
359 * hold the largest packet we can get from this
360 * device. Unfortunately, we can't get the MRU
361 * of the network; we can only get the MTU. The
362 * MTU may be too small, in which case a packet larger
363 * than the buffer size will be truncated *and* we
364 * won't get the actual packet size.
366 * However, if the snapshot length is larger than
367 * the buffer size based on the MTU, we use the
368 * snapshot length as the buffer size, instead;
369 * this means that with a sufficiently large snapshot
370 * length we won't artificially truncate packets

702 * could, I guess, try, when opening the socket, to get
703 * the statistics, and if we can not increment the count
704 * here, but it's not clear that always incrementing
705 * the count is more expensive than always testing a flag
708 * We keep the count in "md.packets_read", and use that for

710 * We do that because, if we *can* get the statistics from

712 * as running counts, as reading the statistics from the

714 * increment "md.stat.ps_recv" here, that means it will
715 * count packets *twice* on systems where we can get kernel
