Multi-tenancy uses loader threads that initialize detection engines. During
this, esp the AC family of MPM implementations, there is significant stack
usage. In most OS' threads have a lower stack size by default. In Linux, when
using the Musl C library, a thread by default gets 128KiB.
This patch does 2 things:
1. it centralizes the handling of the `threading.stack-size`. It it is not
longer handled by the runmodes, but called from the global initialization
logic.
2. it sets a minimum per thread stack size of 512k, unless `threading.stack-size`
is set.
Ticket: #6265.

Commit contains prototype changes of RunModeSetLiveCaptureAutoFp and
RunModeSetLiveCaptureWorkers functions to move the IPS enable logic
out of suricata.c file.
AF_XDP support is a recent technology introduced that aims at improving
capture performance. With this update, Suricata now provides a new
capture source 'af-xdp' that attaches an eBPF program to the network
interface card. Packets received in the NIC queue are forwarded to
a RX ring in user-space, bypassing the Linux network stack.
Note, there is a configuration option (force-xdp-mode) that forces the
packet through the normal Linux network stack.
libxdp and libbpf is required for this feature and is compile time
configured.
This capture source operates on single and multi-queue NIC's via
suricata.yaml. Here, various features can be enabled, disabled
or edited as required by the use case.
This feature currently only supports receiving packets via AF_XDP,
no TX support has been developed.

Update APIs to store files in transactions instead of the per flow state.
Goal is to avoid the overhead of matching up files and transactions in
cases where there are many of both.
Update all protocol implementations to support this.
Update file logging logic to account for having files in transactions. Instead
of it acting separately on file containers, it is now tied into the
transaction logging.
Update the filestore keyword to consider a match if filestore output not
enabled.

This commit checks if there's a config setting for threading.stack-size
and assigns the value to a global variable for use during thread
creation.
Register a new runmode - DPDK. This enables a new flag on Suricata start
(--dpdk).
With the flag given, DPDK runmode is enabled.
Runmode loads the configuration and then initializes EAL.
If successful, it configures the physical NICs according to the configuration
file. After that, worker threads are initialized and then are in continuous
receive loop.
Allow a plugin to register itself as a capture source. This isn't that
much different than how current sources register, it just happens
a little later on during startup.
One "slot" is reserved for capture plugins, but multiple plugins
implementing a capture can be loaded. The --capture-plugin command
line option must be used to tell Suricata which plugin
to use.
This is still very much a work in progress, but can load
PF_RING as a capture plugin.
Replaces all patterns of SCLogError() followed by exit() with
FatalError(). Cocci script to do this:
@@
constant C;
constant char[] msg;

- SCLogError(C,

msg);
- exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
Closes redmine ticket 3188.
This reverts commit 6dca50a322.
The test mode should actually test in system mode by default as
that is what tools like Suricata-Update need before issuing a
reload command.
Enables IPS functionality on Windows using the open-source
(LGPLv3/GPLv2) WinDivert driver and API.
From https://www.reqrypt.org/windivert-doc.html : "WinDivert is a
user-mode capture/sniffing/modification/blocking/re-injection package
for Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows 8.
WinDivert can be used to implement user-mode packet filters, packet
sniffers, firewalls, NAT, VPNs, tunneling applications, etc., without
the need to write kernel-mode code."
- adds `--windivert [filter string]` and `--windivert-forward [filter
string]` command-line options to enable WinDivert IPS mode.
`--windivert[-forward] true` will open a filter for all traffic. See
https://www.reqrypt.org/windivert-doc.html#filter_language for more
information.
Limitation: currently limited to `autofp` runmode.
Additionally:
- `tmm_modules` now zeroed during `RegisterAllModules`
- fixed Windows Vista+ `inet_ntop` call in `PrintInet`
- fixed `GetRandom` bug (nonexistent keys) on fresh Windows installs
- fixed `RandomGetClock` building on Windows builds
- Added WMI queries for MTU
Before setting up a sub eve-logger, check that it is enabled. This
allows us to set "enabled: no" for loggers that are not registered
with the system without generating an error. An example of this
is loggers that are only available with Rust.
This patch implements bypass capability for af-packet.
The filter only bypass TCP and UDP in IPv4 and IPv6. It don't
don't bypass IPv6 with extended headers.
This patch also introduces a bypassed flow manager that takes
care of timeouting the bypassed flows. It uses a 60 sec
timeout on flow. As they are supposed to be active we can
try that. If they are not active then we don't care to get them
back in Suricata.
The new OutputInitResult is a struct return type that allows
logger init functions to return a NULL context without
raising error.
Instead of returning NULL to signal error, the "ok" field will
be set to false. If ok, but the ctx is NULL, then silently
move on to the next logger.
Use case: multiple versions of a specific logger, and one
implementation decides the configuration is not for that
implemenation. It can return NULL, ok.
Create a bitmap of the loggers per protocol. This is done at runtime
based on the loggers that are enabled. Take the logger_id for each
logger and store it as a bitmap in the app-layer protcol storage.
Goal is to be able to use it as an expectation later.

Fixes issue with events being dropped since socket was non-blocking for
offline run modes.
Add a method for determining offline from run mode. Make sure SCInstance
offline is set correctly. Use current run mode to set socket flags.
