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

update failing unittest to reflect the mpm design update
Fixed a bug in the mpm code that would make all the changes in the commit just undone wrong.
This patch adds support for the replace keyword. It is used with
content to change selected part of the payload. The major point
with this patch is that having a replace keyword made necessary
to avoid all stream level check because we need to access to the
could-be-modified packet payload.
One of the main difficulty is to handle complex signature. If there is
other content check, we must do the substitution when we're sure all
match are valid. The patch adds an attribute to the thread context
variable to be able to deal with recursivity of the match function.
Replace is only activated in IPS mode and apply only to raw match.
