190 headers
191 Do filtering on USB and Bluetooth capturing

234 it, or /proc/net/dev if we don't have /sys/class/net, even if
235 we have getifaddrs(), as it'll find interfaces with no
236 addresses

248 Note that poll() works on BPF devices is Snow Leopard
249 If an ENXIO or ENETDOWN is received, it may mean the device has
250 gone away. Deal with it.

304 Better support for dealing with VLAN tagging/stripping on Linux
305 Fix dynamic library support on OSX
306 Return PCAP_ERROR_IFACE_NOT_UP if the interface isn't 'UP', so applications
307 can print better diagnostic information
308 Return PCAP_ERROR_PERM_DENIED if we don't have permission to open a device, so
309 applications can tell the user they need to go play with permissions
310 On Linux, ignore ENETDOWN so we can continue to capture packets if the

467 an interface, to allow interfaces to be opened by interface name.
468  
469 libpcap savefiles have system-independent link-layer type values
470 in the header, rather than sometimes platform-dependent DLT_
471 values, to make it easier to exchange capture files between
472 different OSes.
473  
474 Non-standard capture files produced by some Linux tcpdumps, e.g.
475 the one from Red Hat Linux 6.2 and later, can now be read.
476  
477 Updated autoconf stock files.
478  
479 Filter expressions can filter on VLAN IDs and various OSI
480 protocols, and work on Token Ring (with non-source-routed
481 packets).
482  
483 "pcap_open_dead()" added to allow compiling filter expressions
484 to pcap code without opening a capture device or capture file.
485  
486 Header files fixed to allow use in C++ programs.
487  
488 Removed dependancy on native headers for packet layout.
489 Removed Linux specific headers that were shipped.
490  
491 Security fixes: Strcpy replaced with strlcpy, sprintf replaced
492 with snprintf.
493  
494 Fixed bug that could cause subsequent "pcap_compile()"s to fail
495 erroneously after one compile failed.
496  
497 Assorted other bug fixes.
498  
499 README.aix and README.linux files added to describe
500 platform-specific issues.
501  
502 "getifaddrs()" rather than SIOCGIFCONF used, if available.
503

507 - Brought in KAME IPv6/IPsec bpf compiler.
508 - Fixes for NetBSD.
509 - Support added for OpenBSD DLT_LOOP and BSD/OS DLT_C_HDLC (Cisco HDLC),
510 and changes to work around different BSDs having different DLT_ types
511 with the same numeric value.
512  
513 Assar Westerlund <assar@sics.se>
514 - Building outside the source code tree fixed.
515 - Changed to write out time stamps with 32-bit seconds and microseconds
516 fields, regardless of whether those fields are 32 bits or 64 bits in
517 the OS's native "struct timeval".
518 - Changed "pcap_lookupdev()" to dynamically grow the buffer into which
519 the list of interfaces is read as necessary in order to hold the
520 entire list.
521  
522 Greg Troxel <gdt@ir.bbn.com>
523 - Added a new "pcap_compile_nopcap()", which lets you compile a filter
524 expression into a BPF program without having an open live capture or
525 capture file.

598 apparently call the loopback "lo" instead of "lo0").
599  
600 - Fixed Linux networking include files to use ints instead of longs to
601 avoid problems with 64 bit longs on the alpha. Thanks to Cristian

733  
734 - Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.

738  
739 - Fixed configure to test for snoop before dlpi to avoid problems under
740 IRIX 5. Thanks to J. Eric Townsend (jet@abulafia.genmagic.com).
741  
742 - Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
743  
744 - Fix two bugs related to the Solaris pre-5.3.2 bufmod bug; handle
745 savefiles that have more than snapshot bytes of data in them (so we
746 can read old savefiles) and avoid writing such files.
747  
748 - Added checkioctl which is used with gcc to check that the
749 "fixincludes" script has been run.
750  
751 v0.0.3 Tue Oct 18 18:13:46 PDT 1994
752
