I'm using conversation tracking and ran into an issue. My code looks like this (as suggested in the README.developer): conv = find_conversation(pinfo->fd->num, &pinfo->src, &pinfo->dst, pinfo->ptype, pinfo->srcport, pinfo->destport, 0); if(conv != NULL) { get conversation data } else { create conversation data with se_alloc() and add it to the conversation } When the dissectors main function is called for the first time, find_conversation() returns a non-null pointer! As far as I understood it should return 0 as conversation_new() was never called for this address/port combination yet. What am I missing here?
Using a dissector I wrote, packet-exec.c, as an example, I first called find_or_create_conversation(), then conversation_get_proto_data() and then check the return of that second function to see if I need to create the data: conversation = find_or_create_conversation(pinfo); /* Retrieve information from conversation * or add it if it isn't there yet */ hash_info = conversation_get_proto_data(conversation, proto_exec); if(!hash_info){ hash_info = se_alloc(sizeof(exec_hash_entry_t)); <<< set the variables here >>> conversation_add_proto_data(conversation, proto_exec, hash_info); } ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
