https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6373 Bill Meier <wmeier@xxxxxxxxxxx> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|ASSIGNED |NEW --- Comment #8 from Bill Meier <wmeier@xxxxxxxxxxx> 2011-09-27 14:03:31 EDT --- Additional notes: :) 1. There are a number of unreferenced value_string arrays: main_cap, playback_fmt_vals, warn_codes, info_codes, ... 2. The preferred source file format: proto_register...() followed by proto_reg_handoff...() at the end of the file. 3. TCP ports 5911 & 5912 do not appear to be assigned to SPICE in the IANA port list but appear to be assigned for something else. Are there IANA assigned ports for SPICE ? See: http://www.iana.org/assignments/service-names-port-numbers/service-names-port-numbers.xml If there are no assigned ports for SPICE, then just use the heuristic and possibly the "alternate port" preference. 4. The "alternate port" preference is commented out but the related code and variables are not. Do you want the alternate port preference capability ? If yes, please see the packet-bvlc.c dissector for an example of how to do this (which is slightly different from that in packet-spice.c). 5. spice.magic is shown as FT_STRING so ENC_NA is the correct encoding in the proto_tree_add_item() call. 6. Given that the magic field is a string, please use tvb_memeql() when testing the field against "REDQ". 7. It appears that all the usage of val_to_str() has a constant string as the 3rd arg. Using val_to_str_const() instead in these cases is an optimization which will save some memory allocation behind the scenes. 8. proto_reg_handoff(): The 'find_dissector("image-jfif")' should be under the 'if(!initialized)' since it needs to be called only once. 9. $Id$ is missing from the file. (See doc/README.developer); (Search for $Id$). 10. 'proto_tree_add_item(tree, proto_spice, ...)' should use ENC_NA in all cases. 11. There are several uses of tvb_length...() which I think should be tvb_reported_length...(). Did you use tvb_length...() in these specific cases for a reason ? 12. Almost all the ints displayed using proto_tree_add_item() are ENC_LITTLE_ENDIAN. A few are ENC_BIG_ENDIAN. Is this correct ? Specifically: hf_session_id, hf_LZ_major_version, hf_LZ_minor_version 13. #include <stdio.h> & #include <string.h> aren't needed. #include <.../packet-tcp.h> isn't needed ? 14. checkhf.pl gives perl ...\checkhf.pl packet-spice.c unused entry: packet-spice.c, hf_cursor_data_size unused entry: packet-spice.c, hf_Clip_data 15. The attached capture file, when opened (on Windows) in Wireshark (with or without the SPICE dissector) shows many frames which show as VNC but which are not dissected further (even for VNC). Is there something special which must be done to enable SPICE dissection ? 16. Whitespace: - Some lines have trailing whitespace; it would be appreciated is this is removed. - What is the intended indentation width: 4 or 8 ? If 4, then please use spaces iso "4 space tabs". 17. Has the dissector been fuzz-tested ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
