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

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

316 * return the number of bytes from the packet

322 * than the length in the IP header, and will

328 * versions of libpcap for Linux did.

331 * hold the largest packet we can get from this

333 * of the network; we can only get the MTU. The

342 * length we won't artificially truncate packets
