    Fix optimization of "jset #0xffffffff".
This particular branch condition means "A is not zero", so replacing it
with "always true" generates an incorrect filter program.  This bug has
been in place since commit cae0540 in 2001.  Fix it, document the logic
better and update the tests.

    translatetest: expand the explanation of the "if" in the option processing.
Explain in more detail why we're using an "if", and note that if we add
any command-line options that *don't* cause us to do something quick and
exit, we should turn the "if" back into a "while".

    dpdk: remove capture backend
The current DPDK integration model is not useful in practice. Since
libpcap/tcpdump takes exclusive ownership of DPDK ports via
rte_eth_dev_configure(), it cannot capture traffic from an existing DPDK
application. This makes it useless for the primary use case of observing
packets in a running DPDK-based network stack.

The support added in commit 8d7f0e39da08 ("enable dpdk for libpcap, test
with DPDK v18.11") was never updated to follow the evolution of the
public DPDK API. This led the backend to be disabled by default in
commit 06fbfb73255d ("DPDK: don't enable it by default.") because the
maintenance cost became too high.

Remove all DPDK capture support from the source, build systems
(autoconf, CMake) and documentation.

    TESTrun: Introduce DNS_NXDOMAIN_TIMEOUT. [skip appveyor]
Define a constant (5 seconds seems to be a reasonable first guess) and
use it in several tests that have a history of timing out due to DNS.
In time_test_command() and run_generic_reject_test() take the timeout as
a parameter instead of a global variable; in run_generic_accept_test()
and run_translate_reject_test() give the global default value as the
argument; in run_filter_reject_test() give a timeout argument and allow
a custom value to override the global default.

    pcap-bpf: have device_exists() own the socket descriptor.
That means that its caller doesn't need to open and close the descriptor
itself.

Also, treat a failure to open the socket as an error to be reported as
such, treat an error from SIOCGIFFLAGS *other* than "there is no such
device" as implying that there *is* such a device, and treat a failure
to allocate a string to hold the name of the device to test as an error
to be reported as such.

(This code is currently used only on old versions of macOS - "old" as in
"Mac OS X Tiger", which came out over 25 years ago - but it'll be useful
for fixing the "report 'no such device', not 'permission denied', if the
user doesn't have permission to capture on any device and the device
doesn't exist" issue.)

    pcap-bpf: move device_exists() for future use.
Move it to a location where it's more convenient for later use to avoid
returning "no permission" rather than "no such device" when trying to
open a device that doesn't exist.

    BPF_X is not valid for BPF_RET.

Port the earlier Autoconf fix from commit 5c16ee9.  Tested in a native
AArch64 build using SDP 8.0.5 (CMake 4.2.3).  This does not fix all
known CMake build problems, but reduces the problem space.

    Translate some 1991 mnemonics in opt_peep(). [skip ci]
The "ldi", "addx", "ldxms" and "ild" mnemonics are specific to tcpdump
release 2.0.0 (1991), which introduced most elements of BPF to replace
the earlier solution space (EtherProtoOp, IpSrcNetOp, TcpDstPortOp etc.)
of tcpdump "beta" (1990).  Release 2.2 (1992) amended the instruction
set and the mnemonics, then the USENIX 1993 BPF paper documented the
result.

The last vestige of the 1991 mnemonics has been in opt_peep(), in a code
block that still serves a purpose.  Leave the variables as they are, but
translate the comments to the 1992 mnemonics to make the code easier to
follow.  For reference, a complete translation table is below.

    TESTrun: Call skip_no_translatetest() only once.
The function tests a condition that depends only on the OS, which does
not change from one test to another, so instead of checking it for every
translate test check it once and use as the default in the two loops
that generate translate test requests.  This also fixes the skip
condition for translate tests that defined it incorrectly or not at all.

    Comments

    enumeratetest: Add a new test program.
The purpose of filtertest.c is to process one filter expression/program
using the same set of functions and the purpose of translatetest.c is to
process a single invocation of a function; both programs return the test
result(s) no matter whether successful or not, so tests that invoke a
function over a range of arguments and return successful results only
need a separate test program.

Add such a program, move enumerate_bpf_image() there and rewrite it as a
few functions using strncmp(3) instead of strstr(3).  In TESTrun
implement a new group of tests using the new program.

build and 8 bytes in a 64-bit build.

Don't use BSWAP_({16,32,64}) to avoid redefine on Solaris/illumos.

    Detect __builtin_ctz() directly.
LLVM has been implementing the builtin since release 1.6.  LLVM release
2.1 had introduced Clang, which originally started to define GCC version
macros the same way as GCC 4.0.1 and later went up to GCC 4.2.1.  Clang
release 10.0 had introduced the "-fgnuc-version=" command-line option to
override this default behaviour.  This way, the current guard condition
of GCC >= 3.4 usually matches Clang as well, but this is neither obvious
nor certain.

TinyCC does not define GCC version macros, its latest stable release at
the time of this writing ("0.9.27", __TINYC__ == 927) does not support
the builtin.  Later development snapshots started to support the builtin
whilst still declaring __TINYC__ to 927, later __TINYC__ became 928, but
the version is still "0.9.28rc".  This way, the current guard condition
does not match TinyCC and cannot be extended to match, in a reliable
manner, versions that support the builtin.

Reduce this problem space to the only factor that matters: whether the
compiler in fact implements the builtin.  This detects the expected
results for:

* GCC 14.2.0 (positive)
* Clang 19.1.7 (positive)
* TinyCC 0.9.27 (negative)
* TinyCC 0.9.28rc mob@2be0218b (positive)
* Sun C 5.15 (negative)

    Eliminate an UB in enumerate_bpf_space().
As Francois-Xavier points out:

enumeratetest.c:87:20: runtime error: implicit conversion from type
  'int' of value 65536 (32-bit, signed) to type 'u_short' (aka 'unsigned
  short') changed the value to 0 (16-bit, unsigned)

exactly without involving (and depending on) any overflows.

    pcap-util: clean up the byte-swapping macros.
Use the same code style as PCAP_BSWAP_64() for PCAP_BSWAP_32() and
PCAP_BSWAP_16().

For all of them:

- use uintNN_t types rather than u_short or u_int;
- use UINTnn_C macros for the byte masks, so that the appropriate suffix
  is added (for example, if uint64_t is unsigned long, it will append UL
  rather than ULL to the constant if necessary);
- put the (uintNN_t)(y) in parentheses;
- put a final cast to the desired type around the entire expression,
  just as we were already doing for PCAP_BSWAP_16().

Expand the comment before the macros to give additional information.

Remove a no-longer-applies comment and and a now-unnecessary cast from
testprogs/translatetest.c.

    In PCAP_BSWAP_ use compiler builtins if available.
Similarly to __builtin_ctz() earlier, for each of __builtin_bswap16(),
__builtin_bswap32() and __builtin_bswap64() test if the compiler
implements the builtin and use it instead of the respective bulky
byte-swapping expression.  Add comments to clarify that different
builtins require different methods of testing.

made sense at the time, but the global variable 'done' has been removed

    optimizer: Improve various DOT-related aspects.
Merge the code common to dot_dump() and plain_dump() into opt_dump().
This reduces plain_dump() to two lines of code, so merge the function
into opt_dump() as well.  In dot_dump() set DOT defaults to render nodes
as boxes and to use a fixed-width font for nodes and edges.

In dot_dump_edge() test both JT and JF before dereferencing each, lose
trailing space in the output and do not specify a port for the
destination node.

In dot_dump_node() constify two variables, switch to unsigned, reduce
the scope and lose a type cast.  Remove the "shape" attribute because
dot_dump() specifies the default now, remove the "id" attribute because
it has no purpose in the graph, for the "label" attribute align every
line of text to the left.  Ibid., add a comma before any "tooltip"
attribute and print the attribute only if any values are known for the
current block; to that end, replace a common expression with a new
IS_KNOWN() macro and apply it to A_ATOM and X_ATOM as well; consider A
and X for printing before the scratch memory, not after.  Test both JT
and JF before producing any "peripheries" attribute.

Constify a few more function parameters.  In the comment before
dot_dump() update the example output, which now looks a bit more like
what the current BPF Exam renders.

In opt_peep() zero 'k' when converting an instruction that uses it
("ldx M[k]") to an instruction that does not ("tax").  Introduce
pcapint_opcode_without_k(), in eq_slist() use it to compare 'k' only if
'k' is a part of the instruction.  Add a test for the new function,
exempt enumeratetest from building and respective tests from running on
Windows.  This does not fix any known bugs, but hopefully makes new ones
less likely.

    Fix building libpcap with CMake without libnl-genl-3-dev
libpcap now require libnl-genl-3 only because the latter requires
libnl-3.

The error was:
$ MATRIX_CC=gcc MATRIX_CMAKE=yes MATRIX_REMOTE=no MATRIX_PROTOCHAIN=no \
  ./build_matrix.sh

    netmap: Improve ioctl(2) error handling.
In pcap_netmap_ioctl() fill the error buffer with a useful message
before returning PCAP_ERROR.  In pcap_netmap_close() do not attempt
SIOCSIFFLAGS if SIOCGIFFLAGS has failed.  In pcap_netmap_activate()
propagate the error if either SIOCGIFFLAGS or SIOCSIFFLAGS has failed.

This does not fix a known bug and does not make a previously unknown bug
manifest, but could make a future problem easier to debug.

    QNX: Fix promiscuous mode for netmap.
When FreeBSD network stack is in use, redefining IFF_PPROMISC to
IFF_PROMISC causes two effects: one is a compiler warning and another is
that in netmap mode the network interface never enters promiscuous mode
because a userland request to change IFF_PROMISC is a no-op.

To fix this, in pcap-netmap.c treat QNX the same way as FreeBSD and add
a comment with the rationale.  This addresses one warning that is
specific to a cross-compiled build on Linux for QNX (so the exemption
should have been conditional to Linux instead) and has been tested using
QNX SDP 8.0.5 and aarch64-unknown-nto-qnx8.0.0-gcc 12.2.0.

    Make QNX build warning-free.
In pcap_read_bpf() the warning is noise and has the same root cause as
in commit 909eeb4 earlier, so squelch it the same way.  This addresses
the last remaining warning, which is specific to a native build on QNX,
and has been tested using QSTI build 297 and QNX clang 21.1.3.

    Suppress sanitizer warnings for unsigned left shifts.
Since LLVM 12, Clang has included a sanitizer for left shifts of
unsigned values that shift 1 bits out the top. We do shifts like that in
some places, but that's not a problem in the cases where we're doing it.

(You don't get those warnings by default, but you do get it with
"-fsanitize=integer".)

Add attributes to suppress those warnings in functions that do shifts of
that sort.

Addresses the issues in #1729.
