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.
The output of the list-keyword is modified to include the url to
the keyword documentation when this is available. All documented
keywords should have their link set.
list-keyword can be used with an optional value:
no option or short: display list of keywords
csv: display a csv output on info an all keywords
all: display a human readable output of keywords info
$KWD: display the info about one keyword.
Removal of per flow 'aldata' array. It contained a ptr for each ALPROTO. Instead now we have 2 ptrs in the flow: alparser and alstate.
Various cleanups and dead code removal from the app layer API.
Should safe 100+ bytes memory per flow on 64 bit.
Updated lots of unittests to reflect these changes.
Stateful detection for app layer detection keywords, except uricontent. Stores it's partial results in the flow structure. Other modifications:
- Generalize transaction tracking, logging and inspection.
- Adapt http and dcerpc to use the new transaction handling.
- Stream engine now always notifies app layer of a stream eof.
This commit fixes bug #124.
- Implement "closing" state in flow.
- Add protocol specific timeouts.
- Lots of stream tracking updates, fixing a lot of out of window issues.
- Stream reassembly fixes.
- Implement a new IDS runmode with 4 stream and detect threads.
- Added a BUG_ON macro that aborts the engine if the expression is true.
- Better balance the flow queue handler for traffic that doesn't have flow (like icmp currently).
- Simplify application level protocol in the Tcp Session.
- Add some debugging memory counters.
