(another) bug in the BPF compiler (wireless)

Guys,

I don't know what the status of the libpcap 1.0/tcpdump 4.0 release is, but I'd like to hold on the release for a day or so.

I've just found (another) bug in the BPF compiler for wireless link types. A simple filter like "link src host 11:22:33:44:55:66" seems to discard all the packets.

I'm still working on finding out where the bug is. It seems to misinterpret some of the "flags" field in the frame control.

Have a nice day
GV
