- Simplified the communication API and made it easier to change
to encrypted connections by not having separate variables to
define encrypted and unencrypted ports.
- Now, to enable listening without configuring nodes just
load the frameworks/communication/listen script.
- If encrypted listening is desired set the following:
redef Communication::listen_encrypted=T;
- Accompanying test updates.
Functions are now assigned a unique integer on construction which
CompositeHash can base hashes on. Recovery then just involves
looking up the function pointer associated with that unique number.
- 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/seth/notice-suppression:
Updated a notice related baseline and added a necessary @load line.
Notice suppression clean up and notice/cluster integrtion fixes.
Updates for notice suppression to use the &create_expire attribute
Small, mostly cosmetic updates and fixing a test.
Fix crash on exit (addresses #607).
Duplicate notice suppression.
Closes#623.
- Worker raised notices are printed a single time by the manager now.
- Cluster/notices integration cleaned up.
- New tests for cluster/notice integration.
- Notice suppression fixes and tests.
* 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.
- The test needed to append the second notice the event queue so that
the notice would be suppressed correctly.
- Setting $suppress_for manually in apply_policy since it doesn't pick
up the &default when directly creating the record inside the NOTICE call.
- Duplicate notices are discovered with the new Notice::Info
field $identifier. It's a string that is left up to the
notice implementor to define which would indicate a
fundamentally duplicate notice. The field is optional and
if it's not included it's not possible for notice
suppression to take place.
- Duplicate notices are suppressed by default for the interval
defined by the Notice::default_suppression_interval variable
(1 hour by default).
- A new notice action was defined ACTION_NO_SUPPRESS to prevent
suppression for a specific notice instance. A convenience set
named not_suppressed_types was also created to not suppress
entire notice types.
- A new field was added to the PolicyItem type to modify the length
of time a notice should be suppressed if the predicate matches.
The field is named $suppress_for. This name makes the code more
readable like this: $suppress_for = 1day
- New events were created to give visibility into the notice
framework's suppression activity.
- event Notice::begin_suppression(n: Notice::Info)
- event Notice::suppressed(n: Notice::Info)
- event Notice::end_suppression(n: Notice::Info)
- The suppression.bro script doesn't have a baseline because
it is causing a segfault in Bro. This one test is the
reason that this is being integrated into a branch instead
of master.
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.
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.
- fixing some Metrics::add_data() call signatures
- slight refactors to cluster framework @if and adding a NONE NodeType for
so local_node_type() will return that instead of just emitting an error
when cluster mode isn't enabled
- `make restdoc` target now uses bro's bare-mode
- bro scripts generated from bifs now really only live in the build/src/base/
directory and changed the DocSourcesList.cmake to dynamically figure out
what bifs exist by looking in src/ instead of build/src/
- add some missing @load dependencies
