Subject: [PATCH v3 0/8] packet capture bugfix and improvements
Date: Sun, 19 Oct 2025 09:56:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251019165728.164929-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <250811213632.16023-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>

This patch series addresses the problem of packet capture when
the secondary process is sending/receiving by using the same
mechanism as hot plug.  It also fixes some bugs on shutdown
of dumpcap (and pdump).

The documentation has been updated and improved as well.

  dumpcap: handle primary process exit
  pdump: handle primary process exit
  pdump: fix races in callbacks
  dumpcap: handle pdump requests from primary
  pdump: handle pdump requests from primary
  pdump: forward callback enable to secondary
  pdump: remove use of VLA
  doc: update documentation on pdump library
