Guy, do you remember because of which libnl version you moved net/if.h inclusion after libnl ones in 592a0fcf04c3f7f9f23476525877763303a1a87d?
Should we include net/if.h first when compiling with libnl3 to cope with this (newly introduced?) redefinition?
 Do not coming from missing some nl lib with tshark? (on debian/ubuntu packages)

I get similar problems with Ubuntu:

I'm not sure. Maybe it's only related to the debian stable version. I'm going to see if it also fails on a ubuntu 16.04.
A solution to test that would be to add the last debian stable version to buildbot. Would that be complicated to set up?

Hi Remy,

2017-07-04 13:13 GMT+02:00 Remy Leone <remy.leone@xxxxxxxx>:
Hello,

I stumble upon this error in wireshark master. I use debian stretch with system packages installed from the apt-get build-dep tshark. Does it sound familiar?

        "/tmp/wireshark-master/epan/dissectors/packet-parlay.c:5381:27: warning: 'org_csapi_policy_TpPolicyConditionListType' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]",

        " # define IFNAMSIZ IF_NAMESIZE",
        " ",
        "In file included from /usr/include/libnl3/netlink/netlink.h:24:0,",
        "                 from /usr/include/libnl3/netlink/msg.h:15,",

        "/usr/include/libnl3/netlink/netlink-compat.h:21:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition",

        " ",

        "make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....",
        "make: *** [all] Error 2"

It looks like iface_monitor.c should be modified so as to include net/if.h before netlink/msg.h. Could you give it a try?

That said the comments in the file suggest that net/if.h needs to be included after libnl include (at least for some versions). But netlink-compat.h defines IFNAMESIZ only if it not defined yet... Another chicken and egg situation?


Pascal.
