Dissectors are usually not called directly; they're either called through
a dissector table, or a heuristic dissector list, or a dissector handle.
There are some cases where they're called directly, usually because some
extra information has to be passed to them (such as the SCSI dissector
routines).
What is it
you're looking for there?
** I'm mostly looking for examples of what exactly are passed into the dissect_protocol() functions.
