The wireshark dissector could only be build within wireshark, which means maintaining a wireshark binary just for this dissector. It was not really convenient to update wireshark because of this. This patch converts the dissector into a .so plugin which is built with the .h found in distributions instead of the whole wireshark sources. |

------------------------------------------------------------------------ How to build wireshark with HAProxy Peers Protocol dissection support. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Please note that at this time, HAProxy Peers Protocol dissection is not supported on Windows systems (could not be tested). 1) File list ------------- - packet-happp.c: source code for HAProxy Peers Protocol (HAPPP) dissection support. - wireshark.happp.dissector.patch: a patch file for wireshark sources to enable HAPPP dissection support. Note that this patch file modifies only two files: (epan/dissectors/CMakeLists.txt and epan/dissectors/Makefile.am) to add packet-happp.c file DISSECTOR_SRC variable which list all wireshark - README: this file. 2a) To build wireshark with HAPPP dissection support --------------------------------------------------- - Download wireshark sources: $ git clone https://code.wireshark.org/review/wireshark - copy packet-happp.c file to epan/dissectors/ directory. - apply wireshark.happp.dissector.patch file to wireshark source directory. - build wireshark (see https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/): $ ./autogen.sh $ ./configure $ make 2b) Alternative: build the HAPPP dissector as a wireshark plugin ----------------------------------------------------------------- If you don't want to build completely wireshark, you can build the dissector as a plugin. You will need the development package of your distribution, which is "libwireshark-dev" for debian based distribution and "wireshark-dev" for redhat-based ones. $ make To install it in your home directory: $ make install The plugin will be installed in ~/.wireshark/plugins/ by default, but you can change this path by setting the "plugins" variable. If it didn't work, check the paths in "Help > About Wireshark > Folders > Personal Plugins" which should give you the right path to use. In some distribution it will be in ~/.local/lib/wireshark/ so you will need to install it this way: $ make install plugins=~/.local/lib/wireshark/plugins/3.2/epan/ If you want to install it in the system directory you can do it this way, the righ path is also in the Folder window. Change the plugins variable this way: $ sudo make install plugins=/usr/lib64/wireshark/plugins/3.2/epan/ Be careful to use the right version number in the path. 3) Check if you have the dissector in wireshark ----------------------------------------------- To verify if the protocol was well loaded by your wireshark, open the Supported Protocols window in "View > Internals > Supported Protocols" and look for "HAPPP". In the case of a plugin, you should see your plugin loaded in "Help > About Wireshark > Plugins".
