* origin/topic/gilbert/ascii-header:
Updated tests; removed net type from type conversion code.
Updated header format (see #558)
Header modification to LogWriterAscii to make it easier for scripts to understand bro log files.
Notes:
- I've refactored the code a bit, also adapting the style a bit.
Also edited the header format slightly.
- I'm skipping the testing/btest/profiles directory, which seems
unrelated.
- I'm also skipping the baseline updates as they weren't
up-to-date anymore. Will update them in a subsequent commit.
Binpac exceptions caught in Analyzer.cc are passed to Reporter::Weird
and from there to Reporter::WeirdHelper. WeirdHelper has var args, to
support passing them on to DoLog, but there were no forced format
strings. Since the binpac exception can contain network data which can
contain %-characters, that caused segfaults.
Note, I didn't see the topic/jsiwek/cmake-rpath branch in the Bro
repository so I copied the change from the submodules, assuming it
applies in the same way.
- Log path's are generated in the scripting land
now. The default Log stream ID to path string
mapping works like this:
- Notice::LOG -> "notice"
- Notice::POLICY_LOG -> "notice_policy"
- TestModule::LOG -> "test_module"
- Logging streams updated across all of the shipped
scripts to be more user friendly. Instead of
the logging stream ID HTTP::HTTP, we now have
HTTP::LOG, etc.
- The priorities on some bro_init handlers have
been adjusted to make the process of applying
filters or disabling streams easier for users.
- If the misc/pf-ring-load-balancing script is loaded, the correct
environment variables will be set to enable automatic flow based
load balancing used pf_ring if Bro is built against the pf_ring
libpcap wrapper. Loading the script on non-Linux OSs or when Bro
isn't linked against the correct libpcap has no known side effects
since the script just sets environment variables.
- Added a BiF named setenv for setting environment variables.
- Missing GeoIP databases now generate warnings/errors that go through
the reporter framework instead of hitting GeoIP's internal use of
stderr
- lookup_location now just queries for country code if the city database
was not loaded, which gets rid of invalid database type errors.
- lookup_location now leaves missing fields uninitialized in the
returned geo_location record value. Updated existing scripts to
check for initialized fields in geo_location records before use.
- Fixed support for GeoIP's IPv6 API and databases
This allows for the RotationControl to be automatically added to the
Log::rotation_control table for the filter's (writer, path) when it is
added to a stream via Log::add_filter. Log::remove_filter now also
removes any RotationControl's associated with the filter from the
Log::rotation_control table.
This can be used from a Bro script to cause Bro to exit with non-zero
status and a message to stderr. Uses of the exit() BIF in scripts
for terminating Bro because of an error were replaced with this one,
which addresses #564.
* origin/topic/gregor/script-polishing:
Tune when c$conn is set.
Set c$conn (for logging) in new_connection() event.
(Semiautomatically) convert the comments in bare-init.bro into autodoc ones.
Add ConnSize_Analyzer's fields to conn.log
SSH base scripts: make sure ConnSizeAnalyzer variables are available before using them.
Make reference to the other script a link
When a given log was rotated, a new log was opened immediately. If that
log was never written to again, those empty logs perpetually rotate, too.
This change makes it so a log won't be created for a given rotation interval
if there was nothing written to it in that interval.
