Thanks first.

But I know what you say about SMB. Now, assuming that I can guarantee the layer:

TCP
    NBT
        SMB
            DCE/RPC
                stub data

In other words:

Layer A(sub dissector a)
    Layer B(sub dissector b)
        Layer C(sub dissector c)
            Layer D(sub dissector d)
                Layer E(sub dissector e)

sub dissector e ()
{
    unsigned int LayerE_offset_to_LayerLower(A/B/C/D);

    /*
     * I want to get LayerE_offset_to_LayerLower
     */
    ... ...
}  /* end of sub dissector c */

Can I get LayerE_offset_to_LayerLower? Just LayerE_offset_to_D?
What I want to get maybe be LenA、LenB、LenC、LenD, but the current
layer is E. 

Any advice?
