SITA ECN code is going to retire soon

Hello all. The libpcap module in pcap-sita.c has been defunct for a while: there is no support for "--with-pcap=sita", so the source cannot be compiled by normal means, and "make pcap-sita.o" makes it clear it would fail to compile anyway. I have confirmed with Fulko Hew -- the original contributor of this code -- that there are no known remaining users of this module. Unless anybody justifies the need to keep the SITA module, it will be removed from libpcap 1.11.0. The LINKTYPE allocation and the specification at https://www.tcpdump.org/linktypes/LINKTYPE_SITA.html are going to remain for historic purposes. -- Denis Ovsienko _______________________________________________ tcpdump-workers mailing list -- tcpdump-workers () lists tcpdump org To unsubscribe send an email to tcpdump-workers-leave () lists tcpdump org %(web_page_url)slistinfo%(cgiext)s/%(_internal_name)s
