[PATCH v3 0/2] iptraf-ng: get the interface name only when needed

[Vitezslav Samel]

Right now on every received packet we get the interface name
on which it arrived. This is not needed and is slow.
Make use of ifindex and retrieve interface name only when needed
(when capturing on "All interfaces").

v3:
  - use c99 initializers (mixed with code)
  - don't check return value from close()
v2:
  - hostmon(): bugfix: ifname --> ifnamebuf
  - get rid of passing buffer space (must be always at least IFNAMSIZ)
  - C style fixes
  - always check for errors from system/library calls (socket(), ioctl(), ...)
v1:
  - initial version

Vitezslav Samel (2):
  get the interface name only when needed
  remove unused params from getpacket() and processpacket()

[PATCH 2/2] remove unused params from getpacket() and processpacket()

[Vitezslav Samel]

Since all the callers have ifname NULL we can remove the params
and associated code.
In processpacket() I deleted also ifdefed code which checks for ISDN
interface (this needs to be done in other way).
