197	Note that poll() works on BPF devices is Snow Leopard
198	If an ENXIO or ENETDOWN is received, it may mean the device has

405Tuesday January 9, 2001. guy@alum.mit.edu. Summary for 0.6 release
406
407	New Linux libpcap implementation, which, in 2.2 and later
408	kernels, uses PF_PACKET sockets and supports kernel packet
409	filtering (if compiled into the kernel), and supports the "any"
410	device for capturing on all interfaces.  Cleans up promiscuous
411	mode better on pre-2.2 kernels, and has various other fixes
412	(handles 2.4 ARPHRD_IEEE802_TR, handles ISDN devices better,
413	doesn't show duplicate packets on loopback interface, etc.).
414
415	Fixed HP-UX libpcap implementation to correctly get the PPA for
416	an interface, to allow interfaces to be opened by interface name.
417
418	libpcap savefiles have system-independent link-layer type values
419	in the header, rather than sometimes platform-dependent DLT_
420	values, to make it easier to exchange capture files between
421	different OSes.
422
423	Non-standard capture files produced by some Linux tcpdumps, e.g.
424	the one from Red Hat Linux 6.2 and later, can now be read.
425
426	Updated autoconf stock files.
427
428	Filter expressions can filter on VLAN IDs and various OSI
429	protocols, and work on Token Ring (with non-source-routed
430	packets).
431
432	"pcap_open_dead()" added to allow compiling filter expressions
433	to pcap code without opening a capture device or capture file.
434
435	Header files fixed to allow use in C++ programs.
436
437	Removed dependancy on native headers for packet layout.
438	Removed Linux specific headers that were shipped.
439
440	Security fixes: Strcpy replaced with strlcpy, sprintf replaced
441	with snprintf.
442
443	Fixed bug that could cause subsequent "pcap_compile()"s to fail
444	erroneously after one compile failed.
445
446	Assorted other bug fixes.
447
448	README.aix and README.linux files added to describe
449	platform-specific issues.
450
451	"getifaddrs()" rather than SIOCGIFCONF used, if available.

455itojun@iijlab.net
456- Brought in KAME IPv6/IPsec bpf compiler.
457- Fixes for NetBSD.
458- Support added for OpenBSD DLT_LOOP and BSD/OS DLT_C_HDLC (Cisco HDLC),

461
462Assar Westerlund  <assar@sics.se>
463- Building outside the source code tree fixed.
464- Changed to write out time stamps with 32-bit seconds and microseconds

467- Changed "pcap_lookupdev()" to dynamically grow the buffer into which
468  the list of interfaces is read as necessary in order to hold the
469  entire list.
470
471Greg Troxel <gdt@ir.bbn.com>
472- Added a new "pcap_compile_nopcap()", which lets you compile a filter
473  expression into a BPF program without having an open live capture or
474  capture file.

495  Thanks to Thomas Sailer (sailer@ife.ee.ethz.ch)

547  apparently call the loopback "lo" instead of "lo0").
548
549- Fixed Linux networking include files to use ints instead of longs to
550  avoid problems with 64 bit longs on the alpha. Thanks to Cristian

682
683- Change configuration to not use gcc v2 flags with gcc v1.

689  IRIX 5. Thanks to J. Eric Townsend (jet@abulafia.genmagic.com).
690
691- Hack around deficiency in Ultrix's make.
692
693- Fix two bugs related to the Solaris pre-5.3.2 bufmod bug; handle
694  savefiles that have more than snapshot bytes of data in them (so we
695  can read old savefiles) and avoid writing such files.
696
697- Added checkioctl which is used with gcc to check that the
698  "fixincludes" script has been run.
699
700v0.0.3 Tue Oct 18 18:13:46 PDT 1994
701
