OK my bad
If we can just get someone to do the same for USB interfaces we should be
all set.
Don't forget Bluetooth....
USB would be one important step out of many.
To be honest I dont see any difference between a Ethernet nic and an atapi
controller.
Both take and return blobs of data that have some semantic meaning (protocol
description).
Since we do packet analysis we also need
Firewire
ATAPI
SCSI
...
As long as two entities exchange data blobs/pdus ontop of any sort of
transport mechanism
ethereal should be there to analyze the sanity/consistency of the exchanged
data.
I feel the failure to capture/store-in-libpcap-files/analyze
USB/firewire/ATAPI/(parallell/FC)SCSI/etc
to be bugs. As time moves on, some of these bugs will be resolved by the
people in those areas
knowing how to implement a fix to them.
Like as for very soon we will be able to say :
Not even do so primitive analyzers still exist that cant even measure
application layer response times, they are so incredibly primitive they dont
even decode USB!
