This is the project of Google Summer of Code 2013 accepted by QEMU.org and
|
|
libvirt community. The goal of this project is, provide Wireshark dissector for
|
|
Libvirt RPC protocol. It will provide Libvirt packet overview/detail analysing
|
|
in Wireshark. Furthermore, it will be able to build(generated) from RPC protocol
|
|
definition placed in Libvirt source tree to support latest protocol
|
|
specification.

Installation
|
|
=============

|
Run ``./configure`` with ``--with-wireshark-dissector`` option enabled.
|
|
Then dissector will compiled with libvirt itself.
|
|
|
|
Add/Remove protocol from dissector's support
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Modify argument ``input`` in ``tools/wireshark/src/libvirt/meson.build``.
|
|
|
|
Changing installation directory
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can change installation directory of pluggable shared
|
|
object(``libvirt.so``) by specifying ``--with-ws-plugindir=<path>``.
|
|
|
|
You can install ``libvirt.so`` into your local wireshark plugin directory:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure --with-wireshark-dissector \
|
|
--with-ws-plugindir=$HOME/.wireshark/plugins
