By default, use an empty search path. This gives us a predictable
default. If a user needs access to external modules, the search path
must be set in the configuration file.

If a Suricata inline IPS device is routing traffic over a
non-encrypted tunnel, like IPv6 tunnels, packets in a flow
will be dropped and not be matched. e.g.
The following example is a Suricata inline IPS with an IPv6 tunnel:
request: IPv4]ICMP] -> |IPS| -> IPv6]IPv4]ICMP]
reply: <- |IPS| <- IPv6]IPv4]ICMP]
Both the IPv4 request and IPv6 reply will be seen by Suricata on
ingress. The flows will not be matched due to flow recursion level.
Optionally use pkt recursion level in flow hash. Excluding recursion
level in flow hash allows matching of packet flows and defrag on an
inline IPS Suricata scenario where the IPS device is a tunnel
terminator.
Feature: 6260
So we get:
1. request arrives - buffered due to not ackd
2. response arrives, acks request - request is now parsed, response isn't
3. ack for response, response parsed. Then detect runs for request,
generates alert. We now have 2 txs. txid will be 0 from AppLayerParserGetTransactionInspectId
But txid 1 is unidirectional in the other way, so we can use txid 0
metadata for logging

TCP urgent handling is a complex topic due to conflicting RFCs and
implementations.
Until now the URG flag and urgent pointer values were simply ignored,
leading to an effective "inline" processing of urgent data. Many
implementations however, do not default to this behavior.
Many actual implementations use the urgent mechanism to send 1 byte of
data out of band to the application.
Complicating the matter is that the way the urgent logic is handled is
generally configurable both of the OS and the app level. So from the
network it is impossible to know with confidence what the settings are.
This patch adds the following policies:
`stream.reassembly.urgent.policy`:
- drop: drop URG packets before they affect the stream engine
- inline: ignore the urgent pointer and process all data inline
- oob (out of band): treat the last byte as out of band
- gap: skip the last byte, but do no adjust sequence offsets, leading to
gaps in the data
For the `oob` option, tracking of a sequence number offset is required,
as the OOB data does "consume" sequence number space. This is limited to
64k. For this reason, there is a second policy:
`stream.reassembly.urgent.oob-limit-policy`:
- drop: drop URG packets before they affect the stream engine
- inline: ignore the urgent pointer and process all data inline
- gap: skip the last byte, but do no adjust sequence offsets, leading to
gaps in the data
Bug: #7411.

Uses a config parameter detect.guess-applayer-tx to enable
this behavior (off by default)
This feature is requested for use cases with signatures not
using app-layer keywords but still targetting application
layer transactions, such as pass/drop rule combination,
or lua usage.
This overrides the previous behavior of checking if the signature
has a content match, by checking if there is only one live
transaction, in addition to the config parameter being set.
Since enabling custom logging will replace the extended logging, thus
possibly leading to certain fields disappearing from the logs, mention
this aspect.

Bug #7333
This was done following the fact that this setting was historically
named incorrectly. The purpose of the setting was always to define the
ports that will be prioritized and have rule groups associated w them on
priority. Rename all occurences of this to correctly reflect the purpose
of the setting.

So as to avoid quadratic complexity in libhtp.
Make the limit configurable from suricata.yaml,
and have an event when network traffic goes over the limit.
If a stream-only rule matches, and we find a tx where we
want to log the app-layer data, store into the tx data that
we already logged, so that we do not log again the app-layer metadata

This introduces a new parser registration function for LDAP/UDP, and update
ldap configuration in order to be able to enable/disable a single parser
independently (such as dns).
Also, GAPs are accepted only for TCP parser and not for UDP.
Ticket #7203
When replaying a pcap file, it is not possible to get rules
profiling because it has to be activated from the unix socket.
This patch adds a new option to be able to activate profiling
collection at start so a pcap run can get rules profiling
information.

- transactions are now bidirectional
- there is a logger
- gap support is improved with probing for resync
- frames support
- app-layer events
- enip_command keyword accepts now string enumeration as values.
- add enip.status keyword
- add keywords :
enip.product_name, enip.protocol_version, enip.revision,
enip.identity_status, enip.state, enip.serial, enip.product_code,
enip.device_type, enip.vendor_id, enip.capabilities,
enip.cip_attribute, enip.cip_class, enip.cip_instance,
enip.cip_status, enip.cip_extendedstatus
When we added feature #5976 (72146b969), we overlook that we also have
a config stats option for the human-readable stats logs to output
0 counters.
Due to not seeing this before, we now have two different setting names
for basically the same thing, but in different logs:
- zero-valued-counters for EVE
- null-values for stats.log
This ensures we use the same terminology, and change the recently added
one to `null-values`, as this one has been around for longer.
Task #6962
The stats config for EVE logs have a comment about exception policy
stats counters. This went in with 72146b969c, but shouldn't have,
as there are no options there.
Some stats can be quite verbose if logging all zero valued-counters.
This allows users to disable logging such counters. Default is still
true, as that's the expected behavior for the engine.
Task #5976
While our documentation indicated what were the possible configuration
settings for exception policies, our yaml only explicitly mentioned
exception policy for the master switch. Clearly indicate which config
settings are about exception policies.
