Jason Ish 9a37bb659b windows: reopen log files with service control code
Windows has no SIGHUP and no unix socket, so Suricata could not be told to
reopen its log files after external log rotation. When running as a service,
this can now be requested with the user-defined control code 129, for
example:

    sc.exe control Suricata 129

The service control handler only records the request; the main loop then
handles it the same as SIGHUP.

Suricata User Guide

This directory contains the Suricata Guide. The Suricata Developer's guide is included as a chapter of the Guide. The Sphinx Document Generator is used to build the documentation. For a primer os reStructuredText see the reStructuredText Primer.

Verifying Changes

There are a number of output formats to choose from when making the source documentation locally (e.g. html, pdf, man).

The documentation source can be built with make -f Makefile.sphinx html. Substitute the 'html' word for desired output format.

There are different application dependencies based on the output desired.
