- Add auxil/package-manager submodule as an optional build
source. When the submodule is present, zkg gets installed into the
Zeek installation's bin directory, its config file into etc/zkg, and
its state into var/lib/zkg. Like zeekctl, zkg finds its own module
independently of any PYTHONPATH. Installation via pip remains
supported. You can skip zkg explicitly via --disable-zkg. See the
NEWS update for details.
- Establish a "zeek/python" subdirectory under libdir as the common place
for Python modules in the Zeek distribution. This now separates out
the Broker Python bindings, ZeekControl, and zkg's Python module.
- Add configure flags to allow customizing this Python folder, in
three ways: --python-dir, --python-prefix, and --python-home. These
differ in the logic they automatically add to the path, and build on
the logic already used in Broker.
- Include a (comented-out) @load for zkg's packages folder in
local.zeek.
- Bump zeekctl to move to this new location.
- Bump doc to include installation instructions
- Update NEWS accordingly.
This commit switches UID hashing from md5 to a highway hash. It also
moves the salt value out of the file plugin - and makes it
installation-specific instead - it is moved to the global namespace.
There now are digest hash functions to make "static"
installation-specific hashes that are stable over workers available to
everyone; hashes can be 64, 128 or 256 bits in size.
Due to the fact that we switch the file hashing algorithm, all file
hashes change.
The underlyigng algorithm that is used for hashing is highwayhash-128,
which is significantly faster than md5.
