NAME         top

       pcap_offline_filter - check whether a filter matches a packet

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <pcap/pcap.h>

       int pcap_offline_filter(const struct bpf_program *fp,
           const struct pcap_pkthdr *h, const u_char *pkt);

DESCRIPTION         top

       pcap_offline_filter() checks whether a filter matches a packet.
       fp is a pointer to a bpf_program struct, usually the result of a
       call to pcap_compile(3PCAP).  h points to the pcap_pkthdr
       structure for the packet, and pkt points to the data in the
       packet.

RETURN VALUE         top

       pcap_offline_filter() returns the return value of the filter
       program.  This will be zero if the packet doesn't match the
       filter and non-zero if the packet matches the filter.
