It is the small things that count. This is an example of the fix
Before
--disable-threading-tls Disable TLS (thread local storage)]
After
--disable-threading-tls Disable TLS (thread local storage)
It was not possible to simply specify PKG_CONFIG_PATH to build
with an non bundled libhtp. With this patch we don't need anymore
the htp lib and include configure options.
Remove most of the CFLAGS updates from configure. Flags are now (mostly)
set in AM_CLFLAGS.
Update all -DBLAH additions to CFLAGS to use AC_DEFINE([BLAH], ...)
Improve Lua vs LuaJIT checking.
Improve the configure output a bit.
Lots of smaller cleanups.
Sync the replacement define with the latest Linux code.
This patch also updates the detection part in configure.ac
to do a declaration of all fields if the newest features are
not present.
Don't link suricata with libnfnetlink when we don't have support
for NFQUEUE or NFLOG. Previously, suricata was linked with this
library without reason.
Check for the minimal pkg-config 0.21 version. Without it, CentOS'
pkg-config will fail with the warning:
configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old.
Add --disable-threading-tls switch to force the posix thread local
storage code paths even if __thread is available.
Goal is to make it easier to QA the posix code path.
Moved the libpcap section in configure.ac before libpfring to
enable libpfring to use the specified libpcap includes and
libraries when testing for libpfring support.
Bug #1294
The base 'lua' library has different names on different OS' and even
Linux distro's. Instead of selecting the proper one, we now just try
all. This way no OS/distro specific knowledge about the name is needed.
AC_TRY_COMPILE puts the code in a function already, and Clang didn't like
the function within the function declaration. This lead to test failure.
Clang now properly detects __thread support.
When running on a TILEncore-Gx PCIe card, setting the filetype of fast.log
to pcie, will open a connection over PCIe to a host application caleld
tile-pcie-logd, that receives the alert strings and writes them to a file
on the host. The file name to open is also passed over the PCIe link.
This allows running Suricata on the TILEncore-Gx PCIe card, but have the
alerts logged to the host system's file system efficiently. The PCIe API that
is used is the Tilera Packet Queue (PQ) API which can access PCIe from User
Space, thus avoiding system calls.
Created util-logopenfile-tile.c and util-logopen-tile.h for the TILE
specific PCIe logging functionality.
Using Write() and Close() function pointers in LogFileCtx, which
default to standard write and close for files and sockets, but are
changed to PCIe write and close functions when a PCIe channel is
openned for logging.
Moved Logging contex out of tm-modules.h into util-logopenfile.h,
where it makes more sense. This required including util-logopenfile.h
into a couple of alert-*.c files, which previously were getting the
definitions from tm-modules.h.
The source and Makefile for tile-pcie-logd are added in contrib/tile-pcie-logd.
By default, the file name for fast.log specified in suricata.yaml is used as
the filename on the host. An optional argument to tile-pcie-logd, --prefix=,
can be added to prepend the supplied file path. For example, is the file
in suricata.yaml is specified as "/var/log/fast.log" and --prefix="/tmp",
then the file will be written to "/tmp/var/log/fast.log".
Check for TILERA_ROOT environment variable before building tile_pcie_logd
Building tile_pcie_logd on x86 requires the Tilera MDE for its PCIe libraries
and API header files. Configure now checs for TILERA_ROOT before enabling
builing tile_pcie_logd in contrib/tile_pcie_logd
Fixes configure enabling of prelude. CFLAGS is reset, so the previous
adding of -DPRELUDE was nixed. Using AC_DEFINE now.
Cleanups:
- make functions static
- simplify handling of no prelude support
- move registration to the bottom
GCC typically generates better code without the -no-strict-aliasing flag.
It is only required if code makes assumptiosn that break strict aliasing.
The unit tests pass on x86 and Tile without the flag.
Check all compilers to see if they support the -march=native flags, rather
than assuming gcc 4.2 or later does. Tile GCC doesn't currently support it,
so not checking break Tile compiles.
