Actually, I have "Ethernet type II style frames", but if I disable my plugin, I 
can see that ETH dissector find a trailer, without having a length in 
type/length field. Moreover, I know that in my frames, the padding is added by 
the ethernet layer, so I should dissect the trailer at the ethernet level.

I saw ETH dissector uses a pseudo header with FCS length, but I can't reuse 
this value in my heuristic dissector (because not defined when heuristic 
dissector list is called) and I don't know how to do it without this value...

Thanks for your help

Yvan

You can only do this with '802.3' style frames where the type/length 
field contains a length.
In the typical case, where the type/length field identifies a type, it's 
all passed up to the next
layer which will have to work it out for itself.
