[Winpcap-users] does the winpcap version 4.1.2 support thekernelDump feature?

[yulou liu]

yes，i don't want to use an old version either.but there has been a problem
that I can't resolve . I made a capture program to collecte datas which are
sent from an fpga  . There are several receive threads in the program, each
of threads accesses a global netcard port in tern. In order to verify the
performace ,it just do the least thing In the receive thread---it just count
the amount of  Ethernet frames that it receive. But when the fpga sending
 rate increases,especially above 500Mbps, it sometimes loss packets. My
question is, is it possible to totally avoid packets loss by optimism the
code?  I want to collect datas on the speed 614Mbps without packet loss.
My workstations features with 2 Xeon CPU (each has 4core), 1 G onboard
 netcard.

Thanks a lot!

I would definitely avoid using an old version of WinPcap (like 3.0alpha2). A
huge number of bugs have been fixed since that release, including critical
bugs in the driver that could cause OS crashes.

Have a nice day

thanks a lot.

I have another question.
Is there any possible that I could use the live_dump feature if I install
the older version of winpcap ?

the following was what I just tried this morning:

1.  install the 3.0alpha2-WinPcap.exe
2.   download the  "3.0beta-wpdpack.zip"  file  and unzip  , and config VC6
to refer to the lib , include's  directions .

Compile the project  which uses  pcap_live_dump().  It was successully
compiled .
But when I run the .exe file , it can't find the  netcard interfaces.

Please  tell me what  mistakes did I make ?

Thank you.

The live_dump feature has been disabled several years ago (because of other
changes in the driver) and no one has worked to support it again. At the
moment in order to dump to disk you need to use the standard dump-to-disk
mechanism shown in sample "savedump" in the WinPcap developer's pack.

Have a nice day.

I'm working on a project , that I want to dump packets to the disk .
I think the pcap_live_dump()  maybe could work in the way I want.
but it seems the pcap_live_dump() is not supported in the new version of
winpcap.
is it true ??

thank you.
