[Bug 414201] Re: kernel panic when live capture started
Bug is reproduceable on Ubuntu 11.10 64-Bit for me. Live Capture results in a kernel panic in root user mode before and after I changed the permissions according to http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/wireshark. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 Title: kernel panic when live capture started To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpcap/+bug/414201/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 414201] Re: kernel panic when live capture started
To my knowledge, wireshark and libpcap's capture mechanism is pretty solid for USB and network captures on 11.10. The bug is most likely in one of your kernel drivers, so I would suggest opening a bug against the kernel with ubuntu-bug linux. The kernel devs may tell you to send it back to wireshark/libpcap, but I think that is unlikely. --- Ubuntu Bug Squad Volunteer https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 Title: kernel panic when live capture started To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpcap/+bug/414201/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Significant new versions of wireshark and libpcap have been added to Ubuntu since the last time this bug was touched. Marking as incomplete until someone can show that it is still reproducible on a recent version.

[Bug 414201] Re: kernel panic when live capture started
Of course it's a kernel bug, no matter what an application does it shouldn't be able to crash the kernel unless it's explicitly trying to do so. On that note, I tested this against kernel.org a while back and didn't have the problem (with the intent of adding it to the kernel bug tracking system, and also get a 'kernel' project tag so it gets fixed), but it didn't happen, either random luck or it's fixed upstream. I think it's related to the usb capture code. -- kernel panic when live capture started https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 414201] Re: kernel panic when live capture started
The current libpcap has several issues with usb capture. There is a new one upstream that will hopefully be in lucid in a few days. Once that's in, I'll post here and if someone could try and reproduce it on Lucid that would be great. -- kernel panic when live capture started https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 414201] Re: kernel panic when live capture started
I'm going with my gut and calling this a wireshark bug, not a libpcap bug. The workaround alters the permissions for dumpcap, which is part of wireshark. ** Changed in: libpcap (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid ** Changed in: wireshark (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- kernel panic when live capture started https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Michal Matyska, big thanks!!!: 1. sudo apt-get install libcap2-bin 2. sudo setcap cap_net_raw=+ep /usr/bin/dumpcap It's really working!!!

Today downgraded to 1.2.0-0ubuntu1 (found in PPA) and there are few differences 1) it works 2) it works with user rights (1.2.1 need to be run as root to see any interface for capture) 3) I don't see the USB interfaces to capture on -- kernel panic when live capture started https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 414201] Re: kernel panic when live capture started
Correction of previous comment... it works only with user rights (I can capture from eth0, lo and any). If I start wireshark (1.2.0) with root permissions, I can also see USB devices in the interface list, but starting capture ends with the same kernel panic as well. So the trouble is with somewhere related to USB Temporary workaround for me is to stay at version 1.2.0 and don't run it as root. -- kernel panic when live capture started https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks to Google I discovered http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1086288 with link to http://www.wensley.org.uk/info where is info how to use user account to capture network: install libcap2-bin and run sudo setcap cap_net_raw=+ep /usr/bin/dumpcap. Now I can start wireshark as non-root and capture on network interfaces without kernel panic. Starting wireshark as root didn't change... it offers the USB bus interface and dies on capture start. -- kernel panic when live capture started https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/414201 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
