BIT-1958 #merged
* origin/topic/johanna/config-cluster:
Add vector to read_config_cluster test.
Fix special-case-bug for vectors in UnaryExpr.
Config: another cluster test-case, this time reading in a file.
Add sending of values to nodes that dropped out.
Continue work on config framework clusterization.
Teach Option::set to unwrap Broker::Data values
Start clusterizing configuration framework.
In some cases one can get the Type() of unaryexpr to be ANY. Vectors so
far did not deal gracefully with this and crashed because trying to
convert any to a vectortype.
This patch fixes this by just using the original vector-type in this
case.
* origin/topic/vern/case-insensitive-patterns:
use PCRE syntax instead of the beautiful new (?i ...) syntax
nitlet in NEWS entry
test suite update for case-insensitive patterns
document use of double quotes to escape case-insensitivity
bug fix for recent memory leak patch
documentation updates for case-insensitive patterns
d'oh there's isalpha. I looked earlier for isletter :-P
fix for handling [:(lower|upper):] in case-insensitive patterns
implemented /re/i for case-insensitive patterns
Mostly trying to standardize the way tests sleep for arbitrary amounts
of time to make it easier to tell at which particular point the
unit test actually may need the timeout interval increased (or else
debugged further).
This test-case has actually revealed an interesting issue - it works as
is, but as soon as one adds a vector, one gets the fun error-message
fatal error in any: BroType::AsVectorType (any/vector) (any)
This will require a bit more digging :).
In the following example, the republication of "arg" would result in
literally sending it as a Broker::Data record instead of the broker data
that it was already wrapping.
Sender:
Broker::publish("topic", my_event, "hello")
Receiver:
event my_event(arg: any)
{
Broker::publish("topic", my_event, arg)
}
* origin/topic/vern/pattern-ops:
Update submodules to correct checkouts.
test suite updates for &/| pattern operators
documentation for &/| for patterns
side-porting changes for supporting &/| pattern ops
basic code implemented, but there's a memory problem somehwere :-(
The advantage of using docker containers is to build and test Bro in
an environment that more closely resembles the environment where Bro
will actually be used. The docker containers currently used enable
testing Bro with all the major versions of gcc (versions 4 through 8),
as well as both python 2 and 3.
The "travis-job" script now takes a second parameter which specifies
a Linux distro to use (specifying "travis" will build and test bro
without using docker).
Improved readability of the output by adding more error checking
and better error and informational messages, and by moving the
unit test diag.log output to just before any external tests are run.
For pull request builds, skip the private tests instead of failing.
Prevent timeouts after 10 minutes of no output by not using the
btest "-b" option.
Decrease build time by not building unneeded components.
* 'topic/vern/bit-ops' of https://github.com/bro/bro:
documentation clarification for "p1 | p2"
documentation for bitwise operators
document the '|' operator for patterns
test suite for bitwise operators brief NEWS blurb allow for "counter" operands (does anyone still use these?) for one (but not both) of the bitwise operands
bitwise operations for "count" types implemented
Starting branch for supporting bit operations on count's.
Disable broxygen when running unit tests (except for the tests that use
broxygen). On my dual-core MacBook Pro, this change results in the
unit tests taking about 13% less time to finish running.
When encountering an extension unknown to OpenSSL, we would read from
the wrong memory location. Also added a testcase to prevent this specific
case from happening again.
* origin/topic/jsiwek/broker-misc:
Add Broker::publish_and_relay BIF
Document variable argument list BIFs using ellipsis
Support unserializing broker data into type 'any'
Fix a bug in broker data type-casting check
Remove dead code in broker data/val conversion function
This environment variable is now set to listen only on IPv4 loopback
when running unit tests (instead of using the default INADDR_ANY).
This also moves some of the @loads out from init-bare.bro into a new
init-frameworks-and-bifs.bro in order to better support calling BIFs
(like `getenv`) from variable initializations in those particular
frameworks.
The receiver side will wrap the data as a Broker::Data value, which
can then be type-checked/cast via 'is' or 'as' operators to a specific
Bro type. For example:
Sender:
Broker::publish("topic", my_event, "hello")
Receiver:
event my_event(arg: any)
{
if ( arg is string )
print arg as string;
}
