The big hitters:
Dict: Fills in four 4-byte holes in the structure. This shrinks Dictionary from 136 bytes to 114 bytes.
Desc: Fills in a 6-byte hole in the structure. This shrinks ODesc from 152 bytes to 144 bytes.
Frame: Moves and combines 4 bool variables from a few places into one single 4-byte block. This resolves all of the holes at once. This shrinks Frame from 216 bytes to 192 bytes and removes one cache line.
Func: Moves one int32_t variable to fill in a 4-byte hole. This shrinks Func from 112 bytes to 104 bytes.
ID: Moves two bool variables to fill in a 3-byte hole. This leaves behind a 1-byte hole, but removes a 6-byte pad from the end of the structure. This shrinks ID from 144 bytes to 136 bytes.
Other changes:
RuleHdrTest: Fills in one 4-byte hole in the structure. This shrinks RuleHdrTest from 248 bytes to 240 bytes.
RuleEndpointState: Moves one bool variable down in the structure to reduce a 7-byte hole. This unfortunately causes a 3-byte hole later in the structure but there’s no easy way to filll it in. This does shrink RuleEndpointState from 128 bytes to 120 bytes though.
ScannedFile: Moves two bool values to reduce a 4-byte hole by 2 bytes. This shrinks ScannedFile from 64 bytes to 56 bytes.
Brofiler: Moves one char value to reduce a 4-byte hole by 1 byte. This shrinks Brofiler from 96 bytes to 88 bytes and removes one cache line.
DbgBreakpoint: Moves some values around to fill in a 4-byte hole and reduce a second. A 2-byte hole still exists, but the structure shrinks from 632 bytes to 624 bytes. It’s possible on this one that one of the int32_t values could be an int16_t and remove the last 2-byte gap.
ParseLocationRec: Moves one int to fill in a 4-byte hole. This shrinks ParseLocationRec from 32 bytes to 24 bytes.
DebugCmdInfo: Moves one bool variable to shift a few others up. This results in a 6-byte pad at the end of the structure but removes a 7-byte hole in the middle. This shrinks DebugCmdInfo from 56 bytes to 48 bytes.
FragReassembler: Moves one variable down to fill in a 4-byte hole. This shrinks FragReassembler from 272 bytes to 264 bytes.
nb_dns_result: Moves ones uint32_t variable to fill in a 4-byte hole, also removing a 4-byte pad from the end of the structure. This shrinks nb_dns_result from 32 bytes to 24 bytes.
nb_dns_entry: Moves one short value to fill in a 2-byte hole, also removing a 6-byte hole. This shrinks nb_dns_entry from 1064 bytes to 1056 bytes.
This also installs symlinks from "zeek" and "bro-config" to a wrapper
script that prints a deprecation warning.
The btests pass, but this is still WIP. broctl renaming is still
missing.
#239
This just skips over IPv6 nameserver addresses for now and uses the
first IPv4 one in the resolver config. Should be possible to support
IPv6, but that may need more testing (e.g. need to make sure the code
will be portable to various platforms).
* vlad/topic/vladg/dns_txt_queries:
DNS TXT support
I've tweaked it a little bit, still seems to work ...
I'd like to add a test for this but I'n not quite sure how to do that.
We'd have to hardcode a destination server that then'd be contacted
each time the test-suite runs.
The trailing dot on "localhost." circumvents use of /etc/hosts in
some environments (I saw it on FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE-p3) and so emits
an actual DNS query. When running the test suite, that would be
hundreds of useless queries.
