*	Mention DLT_LINUX_SLL2 as a type for the "any" device.	Guy Harris	2020-03-30	1	-0/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \|	When we scold programmers don't to assume that everything is Ethernet, mention both DLT_LINUX_SLL and DLT_LINUX_SLL2 as possible link types for the "any" device.
*	Style cleanup.	Guy Harris	2019-11-23	1	-3/+3
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Use the BSD house style, in which, in foobar() returns 17 on success and 137 on failure. "foobar" is boldfaced but "()" isn't.
*	Fix manpage reference formatting to be consistent.	Daniel Miller	2018-08-24	1	-3/+4
\| \| \| \| \| \| \|	All manpage references such as pcap_create(3PCAP) will now be formatted with the identifier (e.g. "pcap_create") in bold and the section name (e.g. "(3PCAP)") in roman (default) face. This is how most manpages seem to be formatted and makes things more consistent.
*	Refine references in some man pages, round 3.	Denis Ovsienko	2018-07-17	1	-2/+2

*	refresh last midification dates for some man pages	Denis Ovsienko	2014-04-07	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \|	This change reflects only meaningful (i.e. not purely editorial) changes in the text.
*	remove libpcap's own CVS keywords	Denis Ovsienko	2014-01-03	1	-2/+0
\| \| \| \| \| \|	This change removes CVS keywords that express that the file belongs to libpcap repository. All such keywords represented the revision and timestamp by the end of 2008 or even older.
*	Hammer into users' heads the idea that they must use pcap_datalink().	Guy Harris	2013-10-13	1	-0/+19
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Note for pcap_loop()/pcap_dispatch(), and for pcap_next()/pcap_next_ex(), that in order to interpret the packets you have to know the link-layer header type for the pcap_t, as returned by pcap_datalink(). Note in all the places we discuss the value returned by pcap_datalink() that the program MUST NOT ASSUME that it will return a particular value, and specifically note that the Linux "any" device has a pcap_datalink() value of DLT_LINUX_SLL even if all the network interfaces on the system happen to have some other link-layer header type.
*	Just return PCAP_ERROR_NOT_ACTIVATED for some calls.	Guy Harris	2013-09-17	1	-0/+10
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Return PCAP_ERROR_NOT_ACTIVATED, not PCAP_ERROR (-1), for calls to pcap_datalink(), pcap_datalink_ext(), and pcap_list_datalinks() if called on a non-activated pcap_t. Pre-pcap_create() code will never see PCAP_ERROR_NOT_ACTIVATED, and code using pcap_create() will either not see it (if it's correct) or is already getting bogus results (if it's not correct). Document that while we're at it.
*	Consistently use "link-layer header type".	Guy Harris	2010-08-22	1	-2/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \|	Use "link-layer header type" as the term for DLT_ values; it doesn't necessarily correspond to the actual data link type of the device (802.11 devices, for example, can supply Ethernet headers).
*	Don't hard-wire section 4 as the section for the pcap-filter and	guy	2008-10-21	1	-0/+41
	pcap-linktype man pages; it should be section 7 for UNXes using the V7/BSD conventions (this includes BSD, Linux, and Mac OS X), and section 5 for UN*Xes using the System V conventions (this includes Solaris and HP-UX, and possibly AIX).
