Replaced some with InternalWarning or InternalAnalyzerError, the later
being a new method which signals the analyzer to not process further
input. Some usages I just removed if they didn't make sense or clearly
couldn't happen. Also did some minor refactors of related code while
reviewing/exploring ways to get rid of InternalError usages.
Also, for TCP content file write failures there's a new event:
"contents_file_write_failure".
Moved this functionality to be internal instead of in the script-layer
event handlers. The issue with the later is that bad things can happen
between the time a reporter event handler is dispatched and the time it
is executed, and if bro crashes in that time, the message may never be
seen/logged.
Addressed #930 (and revisits #836).
- flow_weird event with name argument value of "routing0_hdr" is raised
for packets containing an IPv6 routing type 0 header because this
type of header is now deprecated according to RFC 5095.
- packets with a routing type 0 header and non-zero segments left
now use the last address in that header in order to associate
with a connection/flow and for calculating TCP/UDP checksums.
- added a set of IPv4/IPv6 TCP/UDP checksum unit tests
Internally, all BROv6 preprocessor switches were removed and
addr/subnet representations wrapped in the new IPAddr/IPPrefix classes.
Some script-layer changes of note:
- dns_AAAA_reply event signature changed: the string representation
of an IPv6 addr is easily derived from the addr value, it doesn't
need to be another parameter. This event also now generated directly
by the DNS analyzer instead of being "faked" into a dns_A_reply event.
- removed addr_to_count BIF. It used to return the host-order
count representation of IPv4 addresses only. To make it more
generic, we might later add a BIF to return a vector of counts
in order to support IPv6.
- changed the result of enclosing addr variables in vertical pipes
(e.g. |my_addr|) to return the bit-width of the address type which
is 128 for IPv6 and 32 for IPv4. It used to function the same
way as addr_to_count mentioned above.
- remove bro_has_ipv6 BIF
* origin/topic/robin/interpreter-exceptions:
Adding test for new error handling.
Experimental code to better handle interpreter errors.
This seems to work fine and it catches some potentially nasty crashes
so I'm merging it in even though it's not the final word on error
handling yet. #646 tracks the work scheduled for later.
Currently, a lot of interpreter runtime errors, such as an access to
an unset optional record field, cause Bro to abort with an internal
error. This is an experimental branch that turns such errors into
non-fatal runtime errors by internally raising exceptions. These are
caught upstream and processing continues afterwards.
For now, not many errors actually raise exceptions (the example above
does though). We'll need to go through them eventually and adapt the
current Internal() calls (and potentially others). More generally, at
some point we should cleanup the interpreter error handling (unifying
errors reported at parse- and runtime; and switching to exceptions for
all Expr/Stmt/Vals). But that's a larger change and left for later.
The main question for now is if this code is already helpful enough to
go into 2.0. It will quite likely prevent a number of crashes due to
script errors.
* origin/topic/robin/reporting:
Syslog BiF now goes through the reporter as well.
Avoiding infinite loops when an error message handlers triggers errors itself.
Renaming the Logger to Reporter.
Overhauling the internal reporting of messages to the user.
Updating a bunch of tests/baselines as well.
