We've adopted reStructuredText as the primary markup language for our documentation and, given that both GitLab and GitHub can render documents in this format just fine, it makes sense to get rid of the few last remaining bits of Markdown and standardize on reStructuredText across the board.

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 variable ``WS_DISSECTOR_PROTO_FILES``
|
|
in ``tools/wireshark/src/Makefile.am``.
|
|
|
|
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
