The data field of the pinfo->src address structure ( (pinfo- >src).data )

contains gibberish - no IP address.  What could be the cause of this?

What are the bytes pointed to by the pointer in that data field? It should point to 4 bytes of IPv4 address if "type" is AT_IPv4, or 16 bytes of IPv6 address if "type" is AT_IPv6.
