You're missing the idea that the "pid" field is not a generic field shared by
all OUIs; a separate field should be created for each OUI, with, for example
ProtoField.new:
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/lua_module_Proto.html#lua_class_ProtoField
You might have to look at the wslua code to see how to get the hf_register_info
for a ProtoField passed as an argument to a Lua function written in C.
Whether that's causing the crashes is another matter, but I don't see any code
actually *registering* the hf_pid field in your sample code, which is
definitely a problem - if the (Lua) caller of your llc_add_oui() Lua function
calls ProtoField.new, that will register the field, so that problem won't exist
any more.
