pcap_close - close a capture device or savefile
#include <pcap/pcap.h>
void pcap_close(pcap_t *p);
pcap_close() closes the files associated with p and deallocates
resources. This means that, for example, if p refers to a savefile
that was opened with pcap_fopen_offline() or
pcap_fopen_offline_with_tstamp_precision(), the stream provided to
the routine will be closed unless it is stdin.
