Hi List
I trying to open my own raw PF_PACKET socket to receive
pkgs sent to this socket. I can only make ETH_P_ALL protocol
work, but then I receive all pkgs and I want pkgs with a specific
protocol type. I have tried lots of ETH_P types and none of them work.
Naturally I make sure the sender is using the same protocol as my test
program below. I guess I must be doing something wrong???Here is the test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <linux/in.h>
#include <linux/if_ether.h>int main(int argc, char **argv) {
int sock, n;
char buffer[2048];
unsigned char *iphead, *ethhead;if ( (sock=socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW,
htons(ETH_P_IP)))<0) { // ETH_P_IP is just an example
perror("socket");
exit(1);
}while (1) {
printf("----------\n");
n = recvfrom(sock,buffer,2048,0,NULL,NULL);
printf("%d bytes read\n",n);/* Check to see if the packet contains at least
* complete Ethernet (14), IP (20) and TCP/UDP
* (8) headers.
*/
if (n<42) {
perror("recvfrom():");
printf("Incomplete packet (errno is %d)\n",
errno);
close(sock);
exit(0);
}ethhead = buffer;
printf("Source MAC address: "
"%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x\n",
ethhead[0],ethhead[1],ethhead[2],
ethhead[3],ethhead[4],ethhead[5]);
printf("Destination MAC address: "
"%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x\n",
ethhead[6],ethhead[7],ethhead[8],
ethhead[9],ethhead[10],ethhead[11]);iphead = buffer+14; /* Skip Ethernet header */
if (*iphead==0x45) { /* Double check for IPv4
* and no options present */
printf("Source host %d.%d.%d.%d\n",
iphead[12],iphead[13],
iphead[14],iphead[15]);
printf("Dest host %d.%d.%d.%d\n",
...
Your program works fine here. You did run it as root, right?
Did you try stracing it?Cheers,

Yes and ETH_P_ALL is the only protocol that prints anything
Just did and now it works, it didn't yesterday :(
But if I change protocol to ETH_P_MOBITEX, I don't get any-
Did you change eth_type_trans() to catch your proto?

Just fond out something:
if I redirect my prog like so:
./sniff > log
and press Ctrl-C after a packet has been sent to it,
it does NOT work. I don't get ANY output in my "log" file, not
even the printf("---------\n") appears.
But if I run whithout redirect it works(at least with ETH_P_BPQ)
Anyone else see this too?Jocke

Um, this is what we call buffering.
You either need to turn buffering off with setbuf(3) or you
should install a SIGINT handler to flush the output before
exiting.Cheers,

I only tested with IP and ARP packets - I can not say when packet was
actually received and written to log, but it does start filling up, but
maybe not immediately - it can be output buffering in shell though.--

Did you receive many packets? Seems like when I receive just 1 or 2 pkgs
I get the empty log. If I strace ./sniff > log I see that recvfrom gets
pkgs, but there are no trace of writes. I guess this
is a bash(3.2_p17) or glibc(2.5.-r4) bug?
-
I received 1396 bytes of logs before terminated, which is 27 ARP packets,
so there is quite big number of packet there.
Your application works correctly (although you swapped source and
destination ethernet fields) - buffered writing is not a bug,
if you do not like it, use write(2), mmap(2) or turn buffering off as
Herbert suggested. To get packets with your own ethernet protocol number
you have to change eth_type_trans() function in kernel, which parses
ethernet header and returns protocol number, under some conditions it
will just return your number automatically, but you should check it.--

I thought that flushing was done automatically when SIGINT happened
but I was apperently wrong. Sorry for the noise and thanks for your
help. I have added setvbuf calls to make it unbuffered.Jocke
