For now we are just debug printing timestamp with T-TagId and GUID. We
need to store this tuple and compare when we Rx the same - this will be
in a upcoming commit.
The problem happens for bidirectional flows. The sequence of events is
as follows when you start Tx on Ports p1, p2 with the current code -
1. Clear stream stats on p1
2. Start tx on p1
3. Clear stream stats on p2
4. Start tx on p2
By the time #3 is executed, it may have already rx packets from p1 which
are being incorrectly cleared, this will cause these number of packets
to show up as dropped instead - incorrectly.
The fix is to change the order like this -
1. Clear stream stats on p1
2. Clear stream stats on p2
3. Start tx on p1
4. Start tx on p2
Unidirectional flows will not see this problem - as long as startTx is
done only on the Tx port and not the Rx port.
This bug is a regression caused due to the code changes introduced for the
stream stats rates feature implemented in 1.2.0
For now both winpcap and npcap are supported with the latter being
experimentally supported till we get some feedback from users and
confirm that things are all working fine with npcap.
OID for link state has been changed to one that supports both.
To check which is being used, run 'drone -v'.
Fixes#236
On some platforms and/or some libpcap verisons, libpcap doesn't support a
timeout which makes interactive stop not possible. So we now use a UNIX
signal to break out. Obviously this works only on *nix platforms - which
includes MacOS. For now the problem is not seen on Windows with WinPCAP,
so we should be fine. May need to revisit when we add Npcap support.
Fixes#215, #234
Start/StopStreamStatsTracking() methods made private helper functions
specific to PcapPort. AbstractPort::setStreamStatsTracking() virtual
function should be implemented by subclasses as required
