If a session only has data in one direction, like ftp data sessions,
protocol detection will only run in one direction. This led to a
situation where reassembly would hold all the segments as proto
detection was never flagged as complete.
This patch introduces a limit for protocol detection in this case.
If the limit is reached, detection will give up.
In case of recursive call to protocol detection from within protocol
detection, and the recursively invoked stream still hasn't been ack'ed
yet, protocol detection doesn't take place. In such cases we will end up
still calling the app layer with the wrong direction data. Introduce a
check to not call app layer with wrong direction data.
When sockets are re-used reset all relevant vars correctly.
This commit fixes a bug where we were not reseting app proto detection
vars.
While fixing #989, we discovered some other bugs which have also been
fixed, or rather some features which are now updated. One of the feature
update being if we recieve wrong direction data first, we don't reset the
protocol values for the flow. We let the flow retain the detected
values.
Unittests have been modified to accomodate the above change.
PM and PP phase.
Replace the areas of the code that would otherwise rely on setting/reading
these flags with these macros.
Other minor tweaks to some api calls.
First version of a simple pattern based L7 proto detection engine. Currently just works by matching a single pattern in the initial data. Implemented HTTP, SSL, MSN, JABBER, SMTP and a few more.
Couple of pattern matcher cleanups.
