This is not trivial as Ethernet is quite hard-coded for LLDP, but there could be an abstraction to support other encapsulations. Wireshark is able to decode HDLC, but not PVC. Looking at the bytes, I don't see the SNAP header with 0x88cc as Ethernet type.
Starting with a recent commit to the Linux kernel any ethertypes are now passed from hdlcX to the pvcX sub-interfaces.
After the initial setup with with:
those network interfaces look like this:
It would be interesting to have support for these non-ethernet pvcX interfaces.
Here are some pcaps with LLDP frames passing through hdlc0 and pvc0 interfaces from a Linux system connected to a HP Procurve router:
hdlc0.pcap.gz
pvc0.pcap.gz
I recently posted some information about the Linux generic HDLC layer (including Frame Relay) on the osmocom wiki:
