Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] New dissector: packet-genisys.c

From: Bruce Keeler <bruce@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2009 18:18:21 -0700
Hi,

I've written a dissector (attached) for the Genisys protocol. It's a pretty obscure protocol used in the Railway industry for SCADA control of signaling systems and interlockings. The company I work for (Tri-Met, http://www.trimet.org/) has given the OK to contribute it.

One thing to note: the default TCP port I put in there is 10001 which is what we use in our organization. It's not an IANA assigned one though, so I'm really not sure what should be there.

/*
 * OVERVIEW
 * --------
 *
 * Genisys is a protocol defined by Union Switch and Signal for communicating with
 * SCADA field devices, commonly used in the Railway industry.
 * It is similar in purpose to modbus.
 *
 * "Genisys" is a trademark of Union Switch & Signal.
 *
 * Genisys was designed for use over serial connections, but is commonly transported
 * over TCP as well.
 *
 * The protocol enables one master to communicate with one or more slave devices
 * over the same connection.  The slaves are identified by a one-octet slave address.
 *
 * MESSAGE FORMAT
 * --------------
 *
 * Genisys messages consist of:
 *   * a header octet in the range 0xF1 to 0xFE
 *   * the slave address (one byte)
 *   * sometimes a variable-length payload
 *   * sometimes a two-byte CRC-16
 *   * a terminator octet (0xF6)
 *
 * ESCAPING
 * --------
 *
 * Any octets between the header and terminator that are above 0xF0 must be escaped.
 * The escaped octet produces two octets: 0xF0 followed by the low nybble of the escaped byte.
 *
 *  e.g.   F4  ->  F0 04
 *
 * CRC
 * ---
 *
 * Some messages include a CRC (cyclic redundancy check).  This is a two-octet CRC-16
 * with the polynomial x^16 + x^15 + x^2 + 1, transmitted little-endian.
 * It is applied to all octets in the message including the header byte, but NOT including the
 * terminator byte.  It is calculated BEFORE any escaping is done, and the CRC bytes themselves
 * must be escaped if necessary.
 *
 * PAYLOAD
 * -------
 *
 * For messages that carry a payload, it is always a sequence of address/data byte pairs,
 * escaped if necessary.
 * 
 *  e.g. | addr1  data1 | addr2  data2 | addr3  data3
 *       |   00     C3  |   01   F0 02 |   E0     03
 *                                ^^^
 *                                 \___ escaped!
