int dissect_per_length_determinant(******)
{
.....
/* 10.9.3.6 */
(1) if((byte&0x80)==0)
{
*length=byte;
return offset;
}
/* 10.9.3.7 */
(2) if((byte&0xc0)==0x80)
{
*length=(byte&0x3f);
*length=((*length)<<8)+tvb_get_guint8(tvb, offset>>3);
offset+=8;
return offset;
}
PER_NOT_DECODED_YET("10.9.3.8.1");
return offset;
}
let's read again, this function really pass out length, not value.
look at(1), *length=byte, here length is a number < 127 (accoding 10.9.3.7).
it represent the length of content, and content's length < 127 using PER .
/* 10.9.3.7 */ say:
"If "n" is less than or equal to 127, then "n" shall be encoded as a
non-negative-binary-integer (using the
procedures of 10.3) into bits 7 (most significant) to 1 (least significant) of
a single octet and bit 8 shall be set to zero.
This shall be appended to the field-list as a bit-field (octet-aligned in the
ALIGNED variant) followed by the associated
field or list of fields, completing these procedures."
so we know "*length" is length of "n",
for example n=0x20
PER is
----------------------------
| length | content=0x20 |
----------------------------
length maybe 0000 0010,which represent content is 2 BYTE.
in situation (2):
-------------------------------------------------------------
| length | content=0x20 |
--------------------------------------------------------------
length is two BYTE, maybe 10 000000 10000010 means content'length is 10000010
I am sorry, i just read the code, i have no issue. I feel logic is wrong.
