I made some changes on fibre channel support in wireshark. How can I submit the changes?

File a bug on bugs.wireshark.org (you'll need to open a Bugzilla account), and attach a patch for the changes ("diff -c" or "diff -u") - don't just attach the modified versions of source files.

See

	http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html/#ChSrcSend

Do I need to go thru a code review before I submit the change?

No - submitting the change means "giving it to the development team for a code review", not "adding the change to the Wireshark repository". The code review will take place in the bug.
