Moved this functionality to be internal instead of in the script-layer
event handlers. The issue with the later is that bad things can happen
between the time a reporter event handler is dispatched and the time it
is executed, and if bro crashes in that time, the message may never be
seen/logged.
Addressed #930 (and revisits #836).
* origin/topic/seth/reporter-to-stderr:
A couple of tests for printing reporter messages to STDERR.
Small improvements for printing reporter messages to STDERR.
Reporter warnings and error now print to stderr by default.
Closes#836.
- Log path's are generated in the scripting land
now. The default Log stream ID to path string
mapping works like this:
- Notice::LOG -> "notice"
- Notice::POLICY_LOG -> "notice_policy"
- TestModule::LOG -> "test_module"
- Logging streams updated across all of the shipped
scripts to be more user friendly. Instead of
the logging stream ID HTTP::HTTP, we now have
HTTP::LOG, etc.
- The priorities on some bro_init handlers have
been adjusted to make the process of applying
filters or disabling streams easier for users.
- policy/ renamed to scripts/
- By default BROPATH now contains:
- scripts/
- scripts/policy
- scripts/site
- *Nearly* all tests pass.
- All of scripts/base/ is loaded by main.cc
- Can be disabled by setting $BRO_NO_BASE_SCRIPTS
- Scripts in scripts/base/ don't use relative path loading to ease use of BRO_NO_BASE_SCRIPTS (to copy and paste that script).
- The scripts in scripts/base/protocols/ only (or soon will only) do logging and state building.
- The scripts in scripts/base/frameworks/ add functionality without causing any additional overhead.
- All "detection" activity happens through scripts in scripts/policy/.
- Communications framework modified temporarily to need an environment variable to actually enable (ENABLE_COMMUNICATION=1)
- This is so the communications framework can be loaded as part
of the base without causing trouble when it's not needed.
- This will be removed once a resolution to ticket #540 is reached.
