Michal Privoznik 607806f87f Fix const correctness
In many places we define a variable as a 'const char *' when in fact
we modify it just a few lines below. Or even free it. We should not do
that.

There's one exception though, in xenSessionFree() xenapi_utils.c. We
are freeing the xen_session structure which is defined in
xen/api/xen_common.h public header. The structure contains session_id
which is type of 'const char *' when in fact it should have been just
'char *'. So I'm leaving this unmodified, just noticing the fact in
comment.

About

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.

See also:

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=.

You can install libvirt.so into your local wireshark plugin directory:

./configure --with-wireshark-dissector \
    --with-ws-plugindir=$HOME/.wireshark/plugins
