Add a note to the pcre extraction section stating that a flow: capture is dropped when the packet is inspected without a flow, and that such a packet still alerts. ICMPv4 error messages are one way to get such a packet: FlowCreateCheck returns false for them, while DecodeICMPV4 has already set p->payload, so they reach the detection engine with something to inspect and nowhere to store a flow variable. A packet the flow engine could not give a flow to once the memcap was reached and no used flow could be reclaimed is the other. The pkt: and alert: scopes described in the same section are unaffected, because a packet variable is stored on the packet and an alert variable on the alert. Issue: 8862 |

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.
