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.
app-layer.[ch], app-layer-detect-proto.[ch] and app-layer-parser.[ch].
Things addressed in this commit:
- Brings out a proper separation between protocol detection phase and the
parser phase.
- The dns app layer now is registered such that we don't use "dnstcp" and
"dnsudp" in the rules. A user who previously wrote a rule like this -
"alert dnstcp....." or
"alert dnsudp....."
would now have to use,
alert dns (ipproto:tcp;) or
alert udp (app-layer-protocol:dns;) or
alert ip (ipproto:udp; app-layer-protocol:dns;)
The same rules extend to other another such protocol, dcerpc.
- The app layer parser api now takes in the ipproto while registering
callbacks.
- The app inspection/detection engine also takes an ipproto.
- All app layer parser functions now take direction as STREAM_TOSERVER or
STREAM_TOCLIENT, as opposed to 0 or 1, which was taken by some of the
functions.
- FlowInitialize() and FlowRecycle() now resets proto to 0. This is
needed by unittests, which would try to clean the flow, and that would
call the api, AppLayerParserCleanupParserState(), which would try to
clean the app state, but the app layer now needs an ipproto to figure
out which api to internally call to clean the state, and if the ipproto
is 0, it would return without trying to clean the state.
- A lot of unittests are now updated where if they are using a flow and
they need to use the app layer, we would set a flow ipproto.
- The "app-layer" section in the yaml conf has also been updated as well.
There were 8 identical copies of CreateTimeString() in 8 files.
Most used SCLocalTime, to replace localtime_r(), but some did not.
Created one copy in util-time.c.
Improved accuracy, improved performance. Performance improvement
noticeable with http heavy traffic and ruleset.
A lot of other cosmetic changes carried out as well. Wrappers introduced
for a lot of app layer functions.
Failing dce unittests disabled. Will be reintroduced in the updated dce
engine.
Cross transaction matching taken care of. FPs emanating from these
matches have now disappeared. Double inspection of transactions taken
care of as well.
This patch modifies the file store system to have it create the
file store directory if needed. It dos not create the full
directory tree as the parent directory must have already been
created.
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
clang was issuing some warnings related to unused return in function.
This patch adds some needed error treatment and ignore the rest of the
warnings by adding a cast to void.
This function is a wrapper to localtime_r. It is needed to avoid
a compilation warning on OpenBSD. I'm forced to type the function
to a non pointer first parameter. If not we will have to use two
differents functions in OpenBSD where tv->tv_sec is a long
(different from time_t).
