This field isn't required by a worker and it's certainly not used by a
worker to listen on that specific interface. It also isn't required to
be set consistently and its use in-tree limited to the old load-balancing
script.
There's a bif called packet_source() which on a worker will provide
information about the actually used packet source.
Relates to zeek/zeek#2877.
- Use `-b` most everywhere, it will save time.
- Start some intel tests upon the input file being fully read instead of
at an arbitrary time.
- Improve termination condition for some sumstats/cluster tests.
- Filter uninteresting output from some supervisor tests.
- Test for `notice_policy.log` is no longer needed.
This commit adds script/c++ documentation and fixes a few loose ends.
It also adds tests for corner cases and massively improves error
messages.
This also actually introduces type-compatibility checking and introduces
a new attribute that lets a user override this if they really know what
they are doing. I am not quite sure if we should really let that stay in
- but it can be very convenient to have this functionality.
One test is continuing to fail - the expiry test is very flaky. This is,
I think, caused by delays of the broker store forwarding. I am unsure if
we can actually do anything about that.
