Allow rules in the `pre_flow` hook to disable flow tracking for a
packet:
config:packet tcp:pre_flow any any <> any 12345 ( \
config: tracking disable, type flow, scope packet; \
sid:1;)
This rule will be evaluated before a packet is handled by the flow
engine, and a match will ensure that the flow engine is skipped.
Ticket: #7715.
This also exposed a difference between the handling of TD alerts in
firewall vs non-firewall mode. In firewall mode the table/hook is also
part of the alert ordering to make sure actions from packet:td are
applied before app:td. Handle that explicitly for now.
Allow keywords to specify in which detect table they can function.
E.g. the pre_flow table will not support flow keywords, as no flow is
availble at this time.
If the connection is lost (for example, Suricata is restarted), try to
re-open the connect and re-execute the command.
This was the behavior of the Python implementation.

Use the active buffer list to fetch SM variables to ensure that they are
part of the same list so a variable created with bytemath or byteextract
will have context when used with bytejump, e.g
Not needed for content modifiers.
DNS logs have always been logged in flow direction, this can be
confusing as DNS responses have a src_ip of the client, but it makes
more sense to have the src_ip for the server, as that is the src_ip of
the response packet.
As this is a breaking change, limit it DNS v3 logging which was
introduced, and is the default for Suricata 8.0.
Ticket: #6400
When a plugin is first initialized, it is too early to register
transaction loggers. Instead, a plugin can register a callback to be
called when Suricata is ready for outputs like transaction loggers to
be registered.
Likewise for library users, there is a window in SuricataInit where
transaction loggers can be registered that library users don't have
access to. So a lifecycle callback useful here as well.
Ticket #7236
Internals
---------
Suricata's stream engine returns data for inspection to the detection
engine from the stream when the chunk size is reached.
Bug
---
Inspection triggered only in the specified chunk sizes may be too late
when it comes to inspection of smaller protocol specific data which
could result in delayed inspection, incorrect data logged with a transaction
and logs misindicating the pkt that triggered an alert.
Fix
---
Fix this by making an explicit call from all respective applayer parsers to
trigger raw stream inspection which shall make the data available for inspection
in the following call of the stream engine. This needs to happen per direction
on the completion of an entity like a request or a response.
Important notes
---------------
1. The above mentioned behavior with and without this patch is
affected internally by the following conditions.
- inspection depth
- stream depth
In these special cases, the inspection window will be affected and
Suricata may not consider all the data that could be expected to be
inspected.
2. This only applies to applayer protocols running over TCP.
3. The inspection window is only considered up to the ACK'd data.
4. This entire issue is about IDS mode only.
SMTP parser can handle multiple command lines per direction, however an
SMTP transaction comprises of the full communication starting from HELO
till there's a RST or QUIT request. Appropriate calls to trigger raw stream
inspection have been added on succesful parsing of each full request and response.

Task 7026
Bug 7004
Using the new configuration format, it is now possible to set CPU affinity
settings per interface.
The threading.autopin option has been added to automatically use CPUs from the
same NUMA node as the interface. The autopin option requires
hwloc-devel / hwloc-dev to be installed and --enable-hwloc flag in configure
script.
Ticket: 7036
Provide backward compatibility with the previous configuration
format to allow smooth transition to the new format.
The commit adds docs about the new format and the introduced changes.
For example:
error: lifetime flowing from input to output with different syntax can be confusing
--> htp/src/headers.rs:475:16

475 | fn null(input: &[u8]) -> IResult<&[u8], ParsedBytes> {
| ^^^^^ ----- ----------- the lifetimes get resolved as `'_`

This currently only happens when using the Rust nightly compiler, which
we use for our fuzz builds.
Update all deps with cargo update. Additionally, apply the updated
versions to the Cargo.toml, which while not stricly required, does
make it more clear what the version in use is.
