2015-04-07netsniff-ng: Fix process name when sniffing nlmon deviceVadim Kochan1-1/+1
While sniffing nlmon device the process name can be printed with non-letter characters because readlink does not put line ending '\0' Signed-off-by: Vadim Kochan <vadim4j@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

Fixes sparse warnings like the following in some dissectors: proto_arp.c:158:17: warning: symbol 'arp_ops' was not declared. Should it be static? Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2014-06-04netsniff-ng: proto_nlmsg: Add notice about nlmsg pid fieldTobias Klauser1-1/+7
The port id field of the netlink message header does not necessarily indicate the PID of the receiving process [1] (e.g. in case of multithreaded applications or using multiple sockets). Mention this in a comment. [1] http://www.carisma.slowglass.com/~tgr/libnl/doc/core.html#core_netlink_fundamentals Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

2014-05-28netsniff-ng: Add netlink dissectorTobias Klauser1-0/+52
Add an initial implementation of a dissector to work on netlink messages as received from an nlmon device. Use can use it as follows to monitor netlink traffic to/from the kernel: modprobe nlmon ip link add type nlmon ip link set nlmon0 up netsniff-ng -i nlmon0 ip link set nlmon 0 down ip link del dev nlmon0 rmmod nlmon Fixes: #89 Suggested-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
