"""
Passive OS fingerprinting (p0f-lite) for the DECNET sniffer.
Pure-Python lookup module. Given the values of an incoming TCP SYN packet
(TTL, window, MSS, window-scale, and TCP option ordering), returns a coarse
OS bucket (linux / windows / macos_ios / freebsd / openbsd / nmap / unknown)
plus derived hop distance and inferred initial TTL.
Rationale
---------
Full p0f v3 distinguishes several dozen OS/tool profiles by combining dozens
of low-level quirks (OLEN, WSIZE, EOL padding, PCLASS, quirks, payload class).
For DECNET we only need a coarse bucket — enough to tag an attacker as
"linux beacon" vs "windows interactive" vs "active scan". The curated
table below covers default stacks that dominate real-world attacker traffic.
References (public p0f v3 DB, nmap-os-db, and Mozilla OS Fingerprint table):

No external dependencies.
