Thanks for the information. So you mean to say that the upper layer tells TCP about its size.

Yes.

Could you please tell me how SABP does this?

It does it by calling tcp_dissect_pdus() in its dissector routine, passing it a get_pdu_len routine, 
get_sabp_pdu_len(), that looks at the first few bytes of the message (using a routine to do so for ASN.1 PER) to 
determine the length.

See Anders's message for details.
