So in order to support a new data source only libpcap should be modified? I have no experience with it, so I'm not sure how wireshark and libpcap are interfaced... Does libpcap offer a list of available capture source for wireshark, so it can use a new capture source without any modification to wireshark?
In this case the libpcap developers would be more able to help me get started...
