Hi,

I was doing an analysis of Fibre Channel frames when I started to see:

I looked at the packet-fcdns.c and it seems there are some hfis that are created but never registered. The following patch seems to make the error go away.

Currently I'm not in a position where I would like to learn another code review system, or I would have submitted it there. Fwiw, if you were using Github I would have sent a PR instead of this email, but it is what it is.

As can be seen, this is for wireshark-3.1.0.

Thanks for a great product,

Thanks for the report.

I double checked the file and confirmed that you found all the missing fields registration in the file (unfortunately this file uses the NEW_PROTO_TREE_API that is not compatible with the tools/checkhf.pl script, that's why it was not noticed earlier).

This will be fixed in the next Wireshark version (see https://code.wireshark.org/review/#/c/34492/ for the fix in master branch, I will backport it in other maintenance branches).

Best regards,

Pascal.
