Update the logging framework tests: since hooks operate
by name, they cannot be anonymous. I'm also dropping the &optional
attribute from the status field, since here know that the values are
actually defined, and access to an optional status field should
normally be guarded by the existence test operator.
Also includes baseline update for plugins.hooks, which picks up the
fact that the pred record field is now gone.
(Adding a NEWS entry.)

logging/ascii: Support leftover log rotation in non-supervisor setups
We have a use case to rotate leftover log files in a non-supervisor
setup. There doesn't seem to be a strict requirement on supervisor
functionality. Allow enabling leftover log rotation through
LogAscii::enable_leftover_log_rotation and redef this for the
logger node in a supervisor setup individually.
This adds a "policy" hook into the logging framework's streams and
filters to replace the existing log filter predicates. The hook
signature is as follows:
hook(rec: any, id: Log::ID, filter: Log::Filter);
The logging manager invokes hooks on each log record. Hooks can veto
log records via a break, and modify them if necessary. Log filters
inherit the stream-level hook, but can override or remove the hook as
needed.
The distribution's existing log streams now come with pre-defined
hooks that users can add handlers to. Their name is standardized as
"log_policy" by convention, with additional suffixes when a module
provides multiple streams. The following adds a handler to the Conn
module's default log policy hook:
hook Conn::log_policy(rec: Conn::Info, id: Log::ID, filter: Log::Filter)
{
if ( some_veto_reason(rec) )
break;
}
By default, this handler will get invoked for any log filter
associated with the Conn::LOG stream.
The existing predicates are deprecated for removal in 4.1 but continue
to work.
These may be redefined to customize log rotation path prefixes,
including use of a directory. File extensions are still up to
individual log writers to add themselves during the actual rotation.
These new also allow for some simplication to the default
ASCII postprocessor function: it eliminates the need for it doing an
extra/awkward rename() operation that only changes the timestamp format.
This also teaches the supervisor framework to use these new options
to rotate ascii logs into a log-queue/ directory with a specific
file name format (intended for an external archiver process to
monitor separately).
Adjustments during merge:
- kept the UNKNOWN Log::ID as placeholder value
- changed the coverage.find-bro-logs test to check for arbitrary $path
field values instead of just string literals
- don't force EnumVal to unsigned integer since the relevant union member
is the signed integer and added the relevant enum values/types to
.bif files for easier access
- compare FILE* versus file name to check for stdout equality (don't
think it matters much, just a bit more efficient)
- minor whitespace/style tweaks

For backward compatibility when reading values, we first check
the ZEEK-prefixed value, and if not set, then check the corresponding
BRO-prefixed value.

Logging: implement get_filter_names and small fixes.
Removed some superfluous existence checks before deleting table indices.
BIT-1890 #merged
get_filter_names(id: ID) : set[string] returns the names of the current
list of filters for a specified log stream.
Furthermore this commit makes a number of logging functions more robust
by checking existence of values before trying to modify them. This
commit also really implements (and tests) the enable_stream function.
When Bro writes a compressed log, it uses a file extension of ".gz".
However, upon log rotation the ascii writer script function
"default_rotation_postprocessor_func" was discarding the ".gz"
file extension. Fixed so that the correct file extension is
preserved after rotation.
This feature can be enabled globally for all logs by setting
LogAscii::gzip_level to a value greater than 0.
This feature can be enabled on a per-log basis by setting gzip-level in
$confic to a value greater than 0.
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.
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"
- When a log record is being "unrolled" (sub-records flattened
out into a single record), it's now possible to choose the
character/string to separate the outer name from the inner
name. This can be used to work around the problems
with ElasticSearch 2.0 not supporting dots "." in field names.
This value can be provided per-filter as well as a global
default value.
- Log fields can be renamed by providing a table per-filter
(or a global default) to rename fields for any log writer.
The name translation is performed after unrolling so the
value in the field name table must match whatever is being
used to separate field names.
For example if the unrolling separator was set to "*":
redef Log::default_unrolling_sep = "*";
The field name map would need to reflect it:
redef Log::default_field_name_map = {
["id*orig_h"] = "src",
["id*orig_p"] = "src_port",
["id*resp_h"] = "dst",
["id*resp_p"] = "dst_port",
};
This allows the path for the default filter to be specified explicitly
when creating a stream and reduces the need to rely on the default path
function to magically supply the path.
The default path function is now only used if, when a filter is added to
a stream, it has neither a path nor a path function already.
Adapted the existing Log::create_stream calls to explicitly specify a
path value.
Addresses BIT-1324
These functions are now deprecated in favor of alternative versions that
return a vector of strings rather than a table of strings.
Deprecated functions:
- split: use split_string instead.
- split1: use split_string1 instead.
- split_all: use split_string_all instead.
- split_n: use split_string_n instead.
- cat_string_array: see join_string_vec instead.
- cat_string_array_n: see join_string_vec instead.
- join_string_array: see join_string_vec instead.
- sort_string_array: use sort instead instead.
- find_ip_addresses: use extract_ip_addresses instead.
Changed functions:
- has_valid_octets: uses a string_vec parameter instead of string_array.
Addresses BIT-924, BIT-757.
