Move the when statement to a function so that the connection record is
not in scope. Cloning a connection record is an expensive operation and
this avoids it and this avoids it.
Whenever we saw errors in UTF16->UTF8 conversion before, we would
get a reporter message with no connection information. Now we
get a weird attached to a connection so that debugging these
problems will hopefully be a bit easier in the future.
The OpenSSL on debian 8 refuses to validate one connection; everyone
else can. The easiest fix is to add the CA certificate to the root list.
Once debian has a newer version of OpenSSL, we should be able to remove
it again.
The order in which the plugin initializers are executed is compiler
dependent. With this change, Tags will always be generated in
alphabetical ordering, not in compiler-dependent order.
* origin/topic/seth/log-framework-ext:
Log extensions: series of small fixes and new tests.
Change the function for log extension to take a path only and update tests.
Final changes to log framework ext code.
Add logging framework metadata mechanism.
Add unrolling separator & field name map to logging framework.
The extensions now work with optional types, as well with complex types
(like subrecords). Not returning a record in the ext_func no longer
crashes bro.
The default_ext_func was switched to return void in
cases where no extension revord is defined (was bool).
I also got rid of the offsets in the indices - with the rest of the
implementation, that was not really necessary and made the code more
complex.
We do no longer need to define BROKER_PYTHON_HOME, because as of
5bae0ee6f202038ad6ed74c1c2fdf1c07c81, broker uses PY_MOD_INSTALL_DIR as
the install location, which is already set.
Please note that this means that now the broker python bindings will be
installed to /lib/broctl instead of /lib/python.
Addresses BIT-1667
The "metadata" functionality has been renamed to "ext" to
represent that the logs are being extended. The function that
returns the record which is used to extend the log now receives
a log filter as it's single argument.
The field name "unrolling" is now renamed to "scope" so the variables
names now look like this: "Log::default_scope_sep"
