When handling error case on SCMallog, SCCalloc or SCStrdup
we are in an unlikely case. This patch adds the unlikely()
expression to indicate this to gcc.
This patch has been obtained via coccinelle. The transformation
is the following:
@istested@
identifier x;
statement S1;
identifier func =~ "(SCMalloc|SCStrdup|SCCalloc)";
@@
x = func(...)
... when != x
- if (x == NULL) S1
+ if (unlikely(x == NULL)) S1
For convenience, a massive usage of 'Packet p;' declaration has
been done in the tests function. Although this was completely
legal, this is not possible anymore because of the new Packet
allocation structure. This massive patch modifies all suricata
files to use a SCMalloc allocated pointer to Packet instead.
This patch has been done using coccinelle (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr)
which is a semantic patching tool. This ensures that things like call
to SCFree() should have not been forget because the semantic patch
explicitly forces the call to SCFree(p) before each return. With this
patch all unittests are running fine with a small and a big default
packet size.
This patch implements the needed modification of payload access
in a Packet structure to support the abstraction introduced by
the extended data system.
