- Removing unnecessary log flushing. Closes#498.
- Adding new BiF disconnect() that shuts a connection to a peer down.
- terminate_connection() now first flushes any still buffered log
messages.
* origin/topic/jsiwek/path-func-record-demote:
Fix filter path_func to allow record argument as a subset of stream's columns.
Conflicts:
src/LogMgr.cc
Closes#600.
* origin/topic/jsiwek/filter-rotation:
Remove Log::rotation_control (addresses #572).
Add an optional Log::RotationControl to Log::Filter records.
Closes#572.
This required adding the ability for RecordVal::CoerceTo functions to
optionally allow orphaning fields. The default is to not allow it, but
now before writing to a log, the value of the stream's columns is coerced
down, if necessary, before passing it on to the filter's path_func.
Addresses #600.
Log rotation is now controlled directly through Filter records.
Also addressed a TODO in the default_path_func regarding the
LogMgr::AddFilter function generating internal filter path
suggestions/fallbacks. Now, if the user doesn't explicitly set a filter
path, the filter's path will be the result of the first call to
default_path_func (happens during the first write to the log). And in
that case the path suggestion argument to the path_func is an empty
string.
- 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.
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.
