43 * Minimum and maximum supported versions of the protocol.
44 *
45 * If new message types are added, the protocol version MUST be changed,
46 * so that a client knows, from the negotiated protocol version, what
47 * messages can be sent to the server.
48 *
49 * If the format of an existing message type is changed, the protocol
50 * version MUST be changed, so that each side knows, from the negotiated
51 * protocol version, what format should be used.
52 *
53 * The RPCAP_MSG_ERROR format MUST not change, as it's used to, among
54 * other things, report "incorrect version number" errors, where, if
55 * the format changed, the sender of the message might not know what
56 * versions the recipient would understand, or might know a version
57 * they support (the version number they sent) but might not know
58 * the format of the message in that version.
59 *
60 * Other message versions SHOULD not change, as that would complicate
61 * the process of interpreting the message, making it version-dependent.
62 * Introducing a new message with a new format is preferable.
63 *
64 * Version negotiation is done as part of the authentication process:
65 *
66 * The client sends an authentication request, with the version number
67 * in the request being the maximum version it supports.
68 *
69 * If the server supports that version, it attempts to authenticate the
70 * client, and replies as appropriate, with the version number in the
71 * reply being that version.
72 *
73 * If the server doesn't support that version because it's too large,
74 * it replies with a RPCAP_MSG_ERROR message, with the maximum version
75 * they support as the version number in the reply, and with the error
76 * code being PCAP_ERR_WRONGVER.
77 *
78 * If the server doesn't support that version because it's too small,
79 * it replies with a RPCAP_MSG_ERROR message, with that version as
80 * the version number in the reply, and with the error code being
81 * PCAP_ERR_WRONGVER.
82 *
83 * If the client supports that version, it retries the authentication
84 * with that version and, if that fails for any reason, including
85 * PCAP_ERR_WRONGVER, fails. Otherwise, it fails, telling its caller
86 * that there's no version that both support.
87 *
88 * This requires that the set of versions supported by a client or
89 * server be a range of integers, with no gaps. Thus:
90 *
91 * the client's version set is [Cmin, Cmax], with Cmin <= Cmax;
92 *
93 * the server's version set is [Smin, Smax], with Smin <= Smax;
94 *
95 * the client sends Cmax as the version number in the initial
96 * authentication request;
97 *
98 * if the server doesn't support the version sent by the client,
99 * either Smax < Cmax or Smin > Cmax (because the client sent Cmax
100 * to the server, and the server doesn't support it);
101 *
102 * if Smax < Cmax:
103 *
104 * the server sends Smax as the version number in the RPCAP_MSG_ERROR/
105 * PCAP_ERR_WRONGVER message - the client will accept this because
106 * Cmax != 0, as these numbers are unsigned, and this means that
107 * this isn't an old client that rejects all messages with a non-zero
108 * version number, it's a new client that accepts RPCAP_MSG_ERROR
109 * messages no matter what the version is;
110 *
111 * if Smax >= Cmin, both the client and the server can use it, and
112 * the client retries with Smax;
113 *
114 * if Smax < Cmin, there is no version the client and server can
115 * both support.
116 *
117 * if Smin > Cmax:
118 *
119 * the server sends Cmax as the version number in the RPCAP_MSG_ERROR/
120 * PCAP_ERR_WRONGVER message - the client will accept this because
121 * Cmax is a valid client version number.
122 *
123 * the client will retry with Cmax, get the same version failure,
124 * and report that there is no version the client and server can
125 * both support (as the version sets are disjoint).
126 *
127 * Old negotiation-unaware clients just send version 0 and, if they
128 * get back PCAP_ERR_WRONGVER, treat it as a fatal error. This
129 * means they'll fail to talk to any server that can't handle
130 * version 0, which is the appropriate thing to do, as they can
131 * only use version 0.
132 *
133 * Old negotiation-unaware servers fail if they get a version other
134 * than 0, sending back PCAP_ERR_WRONGVER with version 0, which is
135 * the only version, and thus both the minimum and maximum version,
136 * they support. The client will either fail if it doesn't support
137 * version 0, or will retry with version 0 and succeed, so it will
138 * fail with servers that can't handle version 0 or will negotiate
139 * version 0 with servers that can handle version 0.

200 * Format of an address as sent over the wire.
201 *
202 * Do *NOT* use struct sockaddr_storage, as the layout for that is
203 * machine-dependent.
204 *
205 * RFC 2553 gives two sample layouts, both of which are 128 bytes long,
206 * both of which are aligned on an 8-byte boundary, and both of which
207 * have 2 bytes before the address data.
208 *
209 * However, one has a 2-byte address family value at the beginning
210 * and the other has a 1-byte address length value and a 1-byte
211 * address family value; this reflects the fact that the original
212 * BSD sockaddr structure had a 2-byte address family value, which
213 * was later changed to a 1-byte address length value and a 1-byte
214 * address family value, when support for variable-length OSI
215 * network-layer addresses was added.
216 *
217 * Furthermore, Solaris's struct sockaddr_storage is 256 bytes
218 * long.
219 *
220 * This structure is supposed to be aligned on an 8-byte boundary;
221 * the message header is 8 bytes long, so we don't have to do
222 * anything to ensure it's aligned on that boundary within a packet,
223 * so we just define it as 128 bytes long, with a 2-byte address
224 * family. (We only support IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, which are fixed-
225 * length.) That way, it's the same size as sockaddr_storage on
226 * Windows, and it'll look like what an older Windows client will
227 * expect.
228 *
229 * In addition, do *NOT* use the host's AF_ value for an address,
230 * as the value for AF_INET6 is machine-dependent. We use the
231 * Windows value, so it'll look like what an older Windows client
232 * will expect.
233 *
234 * (The Windows client is the only one that has been distributed
235 * as a standard part of *pcap; UN*X clients are probably built
236 * from source by the user or administrator, so they're in a
237 * better position to upgrade an old client. Therefore, we
238 * try to make what goes over the wire look like what comes
239 * from a Windows server.)
