If it were legal to call SendReplyOrRejectEvent() without an
EventHandlerPtr, then this would leak the `question_name` object. But
this method has just one caller, and it verifies the EventHandlerPtr.
If `dns_TSIG_addl` is not set, then the BroString allocated by
ExtractOctets() leaks. Therefore, don't ask ExtractOctets() to copy
the data to a BroString if we're not going to use it.
Yet another memory leak (out of way too many) which would have been
prevented by using smart pointers.
The Zeek code base has very inconsistent #includes. Many sources
included a few headers, and those headers included other headers, and
in the end, nearly everything is included everywhere, so missing
#includes were never noticed. Another side effect was a lot of header
bloat which slows down the build.
First step to fix it: in each source file, its own header should be
included first to verify that each header's includes are correct, and
none is missing.
After adding the missing #includes, I replaced lots of #includes
inside headers with class forward declarations. In most headers,
object pointers are never referenced, so declaring the function
prototypes with forward-declared classes is just fine.
This patch speeds up the build by 19%, because each compilation unit
gets smaller. Here are the "time" numbers for a fresh build (with a
warm page cache but without ccache):

SPF response records are identical to TXT records in structure, and
can be parsed and interpreted the same way. However, they have a
different RR type, so they would generate weird events and not be
parsed by Zeek before this change.
Even though they're the same as TXT records from a protocol stance, I
created a new event type (dns_SPF_reply), and call the records out as
SPF in the logs, instead of as TXT records, since the distinction
could be important for detection purposes.
SPF records have been obsoleted, but continue to be seen in the wild.
This also installs symlinks from "zeek" and "bro-config" to a wrapper
script that prints a deprecation warning.
The btests pass, but this is still WIP. broctl renaming is still
missing.
#239
Added ConnectionEventFast() and QueueEventFast() methods to avoid
redundant event handler existence checks.
It's common practice for caller to already check for event handler
existence before doing all the work of constructing the arguments, so
it's desirable to not have to check for existence again.
E.g. going through ConnectionEvent() means 3 existence checks:
one you do yourself before calling it, one in ConnectionEvent(), and then
another in QueueEvent().
The existence check itself can be more than a few operations sometimes
as it needs to check a few flags that determine if it's enabled, has
a local body, or has any remote receivers in the old comm. system or
has been flagged as something to publish in the new comm. system.
Majority of PLists are now created as automatic/stack objects,
rather than on heap and initialized either with the known-capacity
reserved upfront or directly from an initializer_list (so there's no
wasted slack in the memory that gets allocated for lists containing
a fixed/known number of elements).
Added versions of the ConnectionEvent/QueueEvent methods that take
a val_list by value.
Added a move ctor/assign-operator to Plists to allow passing them
around without having to copy the underlying array of pointers.

I added a tiny change to CompHash to make sure that nothing messes this
up in the future.
* 'fatemabw/bro' of https://github.com/fatemabw/bro:
DNSSEC support in Bro
I made several changes:
- renamed event/record types
- reformatted the info added to dns.log
- removed the "addl" scripts that added extended dnssec info to dns.log
- simplifications/improvements to the internal parsing logic
This commit marks (hopefully) ever one-parameter constructor as explicit.
It also uses override in (hopefully) all circumstances where a virtual
method is overridden.
There are a very few other minor changes - most of them were necessary
to get everything to compile (like one additional constructor). In one
case I changed an implicit operation to an explicit string conversion -
I think the automatically chosen conversion was much more convoluted.
This took longer than I want to admit but not as long as I feared :)
The "dns_TXT_reply" event now uses a "vector of strings" as the final
parameter instead of just a "string" in order to support DNS TXT
resource records that contain multiple character-strings.
The format in which the TXT answers are logged by default is now changed
to be a list of strings of the form `fmt("TXT %d %s", |str|, str)`, one
for each character-string in the RR and delimited by a space (' ')
character.
The main change is that reassembly code (e.g. for TCP) now uses
int64/uint64 (signedness is situational) data types in place of int
types in order to support delivering data to analyzers that pass 2GB
thresholds. There's also changes in logic that accompany the change in
data types, e.g. to fix TCP sequence space arithmetic inconsistencies.
Another significant change is in the Analyzer API: the *Packet and
*Undelivered methods now use a uint64 in place of an int for the
relative sequence space offset parameter.
* origin/topic/seth/dns-srv-fix:
No longer accidentally attempting to parse NBSTAT RRs as SRV RRs.
Fix DNS SRV responses and a small issue with NBNS queries and label length.
BIT-1147 #merged
The NetBios name service RFC (1002) specified NBSTAT (NetBios Status)
resource records to have identifier 0x0021. The DNS SRV RFC specified
SRV records to have identifier 33. Unfortunately those are the
same number. :)
We now check the resp port to handle this situation better so that
we won't be attempting to parse NBSTAT records as SRV (which
causes several weird messages).
- DNS SRV responses never had the code written to actually
generate the dns_SRV_reply event. Adding this required
extending the event a bit to add extra information. SRV responses
now appear in the dns.log file correctly.
- Fixed an issue where some Microsoft NetBIOS Name Service lookups
would exceed the max label length for DNS and cause an incorrect
"DNS_label_too_long" weird.
- Fix parsing of empty question sections (when QDCOUNT == 0). In this
case, the DNS parser would extract two 2-byte fields for use in either
"dns_query_reply" or "dns_rejected" events (dependent on value of
RCODE) as qclass and qtype parameters. This is not correct, because
such fields don't actually exist in the DNS message format when
QDCOUNT is 0. As a result, these events are no longer raised when
there's an empty question section. Scripts that depends on checking
for an empty question section can do that in the "dns_message" event.
- Add a new "dns_unknown_reply" event, for when Bro does not know how
to fully parse a particular resource record type. This helps fix a
problem in the default DNS scripts where the logic to complete
request-reply pair matching doesn't work because it's waiting on more
RR events to complete the reply. i.e. it expects ANCOUNT number of
dns_*_reply events and will wait until it gets that many before
completing a request-reply pair and logging it to dns.log. This could
cause bogus replies to match a previous request if they happen to
share a DNS transaction ID.
