Keep in mind that tvb_reported_length_remaining() may return -1 if the offset
is past the end of the TVB. No exception is thrown. This can make the
function somewhat dangerous; a quick 'grep' through the dissectors shows a
number of places where this function is mis-used, for example:
epan/dissectors/packet-cdp.c: while (tvb_reported_length_remaining(tvb,
offset) != 0) {
Maybe it would make more sense to (only) supply tvb_reported_length() as a Lua
API? I added that (untested) in r38461.
