Instead of error phrone externs with macro's, use functions with a local
static enum var instead.
- EngineModeIsIPS(): in IPS mode
- EngineModeIsIDS(): in IDS mode
To set the modes:
- EngineModeSetIDS(): IDS mode (default)
- EngineModeSetIPS(): IPS mode
Bug #1177.
When running on a TILEncore-Gx PCIe card, setting the filetype of fast.log
to pcie, will open a connection over PCIe to a host application caleld
tile-pcie-logd, that receives the alert strings and writes them to a file
on the host. The file name to open is also passed over the PCIe link.
This allows running Suricata on the TILEncore-Gx PCIe card, but have the
alerts logged to the host system's file system efficiently. The PCIe API that
is used is the Tilera Packet Queue (PQ) API which can access PCIe from User
Space, thus avoiding system calls.
Created util-logopenfile-tile.c and util-logopen-tile.h for the TILE
specific PCIe logging functionality.
Using Write() and Close() function pointers in LogFileCtx, which
default to standard write and close for files and sockets, but are
changed to PCIe write and close functions when a PCIe channel is
openned for logging.
Moved Logging contex out of tm-modules.h into util-logopenfile.h,
where it makes more sense. This required including util-logopenfile.h
into a couple of alert-*.c files, which previously were getting the
definitions from tm-modules.h.
The source and Makefile for tile-pcie-logd are added in contrib/tile-pcie-logd.
By default, the file name for fast.log specified in suricata.yaml is used as
the filename on the host. An optional argument to tile-pcie-logd, --prefix=,
can be added to prepend the supplied file path. For example, is the file
in suricata.yaml is specified as "/var/log/fast.log" and --prefix="/tmp",
then the file will be written to "/tmp/var/log/fast.log".
Check for TILERA_ROOT environment variable before building tile_pcie_logd
Building tile_pcie_logd on x86 requires the Tilera MDE for its PCIe libraries
and API header files. Configure now checs for TILERA_ROOT before enabling
builing tile_pcie_logd in contrib/tile_pcie_logd
The TM_FLAG_LOGAPI_TM flag indicates that a module is run by the log
api, not by the 'regular' thread module call functions.
Set flag in all all Log API users' registration code.
Purpose of this flag is in profiling. In profiling output it will be
used to list log api thread modules separately.
Remove separate ipv4 and ipv6 registration functions.
Make all functions static.
Move registration function to the bottom.
Simplify OS_WIN32 wrappers usage.
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
Per packet profiling uses tick based accounting. It has 2 outputs, a summary
and a csv file that contains per packet stats.
Stats per packet include:
1) total ticks spent
2) ticks spent per individual thread module
3) "threading overhead" which is simply calculated by subtracting (2) of (1).
A number of changes were made to integrate the new code in a clean way:
a number of generic enums are now placed in tm-threads-common.h so we can
include them from any part of the engine.
Code depends on --enable-profiling just like the rule profiling code.
New yaml parameters:
profiling:
# packet profiling
packets:
# Profiling can be disabled here, but it will still have a
# performance impact if compiled in.
enabled: yes
filename: packet_stats.log
append: yes
# per packet csv output
csv:
# Output can be disabled here, but it will still have a
# performance impact if compiled in.
enabled: no
filename: packet_stats.csv
