I managed to completely forget to add unescaping to the input framework -
this should fix it. It now works with the exact same escaping that is
used by the writers (\x##).
Includes one testcase that seems to work - everything else still passes.
Threads will now reliably get a call to DoFinish() no matter how the
thread terminates. This will always be called from within the thread,
whereas the destructor is called from the main thread after the child
thread has already terminated.
Also removing debugging code.
However, two problems remain with the ASCII writer (seeing them only
on MacOS):
- the #start/#end timestamps contain only dummy values right now.
The odd thing is that once I enable strftime() to print actual
timestamps, I get crashes (even though strftime() is supposed to
be thread-safe).
- occassionally, there's still output missing in tests. In those
cases, the file descriptor apparently goes bad: a write() will
suddently return EBADF for reasons I don't understand yet.
I've only tested that it compiles, not whether it still works. The
fact that we don't have any tests for this makes me uneasy ...
* remotes/origin/topic/seth/elasticsearch: (35 commits)
Some documentation updates for elasticsearch plugin.
Temporarily removing the ES timeout because it works with signals and is incompatible with Bro threads.
Changed ES index names to localtime and added a meta index.
New script for easily duplicating logs to ElasticSearch.
Some better elasticsearch reliability.
Fixed small elasticsearch problem in configure output.
Re-adding the needed call to FinishedRotation in the ES writer plugin.
Tiny updates.
Bringing elasticsearch branch up to date with master.
Adding a define to make the stdint C macros available.
Adding an extra header.
Fixed a bug with messed up time value passing to elasticsearch.
Small updates and a little standardization for config.h.in naming.
Bug fixes.
Bug fix and feature.
Forgot to call the parent method for DoHeartBeat.
Changed the escaping method.
Flush logs to ES daemon as Bro is shutting down.
Reduce the batch size to 1000 and add a maximum time interval for batches.
Reworked bulk operation string construction to use ODesc and added json escaping.
...
frameworks.
There were a number of cases that weren't thread-safe. In particular,
we don't use std::string anymore for anything that's passed between
threads (but instead plain old const char*, with manual memmory
managmenet).
This is still a check-point commit, I'll do more testing.
Turns out the finish methods weren't called correctly, caused by a
mess up with method names which all sounded too similar and the wrong
one ended up being called. I've reworked this by changing the
thread/writer/reader interfaces, which actually also simplifies them
by getting rid of the requirement for writer backends to call their
parent methods (i.e., less opportunity for errors).
This commit also includes the following (because I noticed the problem
above when working on some of these):
- The ASCII log writer now includes "#start <timestamp>" and
"#end <timestamp> lines in the each file. The latter supersedes
Bernhard's "EOF" patch.
This required a number of tests updates. The standard canonifier
removes the timestamps, but some tests compare files directly,
which doesn't work if they aren't printing out the same
timestamps (like the comm tests).
- The above required yet another change to the writer API to
network_time to methods.
- Renamed ASCII logger "header" options to "meta".
- Fixes#763 "Escape # when first character in log file line".
All btests pass for me on Linux FC15. Will try MacOS next.
(because it could hang later still).
Also logging to stderr as well to make sure one sees it.
Also adding code to the ASCII writer to catch termination
inconsistencies.

no reply package was seen.
In the fixed version rcode is only set when a reply packet was seen.
Updates for the baseline have been commited separately in the
topic/bernhard/dns-fix branch.
* origin/fastpath:
Fix overrides of TCP_ApplicationAnalyzer::EndpointEOF.
Fix segfault when incrementing whole vector values.
Remove baselines for some leak-detecting unit tests.
Unblock SIGFPE, SIGILL, SIGSEGV and SIGBUS for threads.
In many cases, classes derived from TCP_ApplicationAnalyzer were
*overloading* instead of overriding EndpointEOF causing the parent
class version to become hidden in the child and also for the child's
version to never to called polymorphically from
TCP_Analyzer::EndpointEOF. Clang gave a warning in each case.
Also removed RefExpr::Eval(Val*) method since it was never called
(Clang emitted warning about this hiding overloaded virtual function
UnaryExpr::Eval(Frame*)) and doesn't appear to be necessary even if it
was called to avoid the default vector handling of UnaryExpr::Eval
(as the comment suggests as the intention).
