One of the lessons of the XZ backdoor story was that just linking to
libsystemd to call sd_notify is discouraged by the systemd project:
Lennart Poettering:
"PSA: In context of the xzpocalypse we now added an example reimplementation
of sd_notify() to our man page:
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/devel/sd_notify.html#Notes
It's pretty comprehensive (i.e. uses it for reload notification too), but
still relatively short.
In the past, I have been telling anyone who wanted to listen that if all you
want is sd_notify() then don't bother linking to libsystemd, since the
protocol is stable and should be considered the API, not our C wrapper
around it. After all, the protocol is so trivial"
From: https://mastodon.social/@pid_eins/112202687764571433
This commit takes the example code and uses it to reimplement the notify
logic.
The code is enabled if Linux is detected in configure. Since the code
won't do anything if the NOTIFY_SOCKET env var isn't set, this should
also work fine on systems w/o systemd.
Ticket: #6913.
In worktree scenarios, .git is a file. Assuming its a directory causes
the release date to check the ChangeLog instead of the last commit,
while not a big issue, can be confusing.
When outputting a float, check if its infinity, or not a number and
output a null instead.
Using a null was chosen as this is what serde_yaml, Firefox, Chrome,
Node, etc. do.
Ticket: #6921
Function prototype has changed in a recent release. Rather than dealing
with detecting that, fall back to our regular pattern of using
pcre2_substring_copy_bynumber().
Bug: #6918.
While the checkout job appears to do this, it is done with a different
version of git which seems to be the cause for it not having an effect
when doing manual git operations from within a job.
Also removes duplicate checkout statements in Windows builds.
Sphinx embeds a date in the generated man pages, and to provide
reproducible builds this date needs to be provided to Sphinx,
otherwise it will use the current date.
If building from Git, extract the date from the most recent commit. In
a release, this commit would be the commit that sets the version so is
accurate.
If .git does not exist, use the most recent data found in the
ChangeLog.
The ChangeLog is not used when building from git, as the main/master
branch may not have recent enough timestamps.
This should provide a consistent date when re-building the
distribution from the same non-git archive, or from the same git
commit.
Ticket: #6911
By default, when Sphinx generates the man pages, the current date will
be embedded in them. This can be set to a specific date with the
"today" variable. Typically the date embedded in manpages in the
release date.
To achieve this, attempt to use the environment variable, RELEASE_DATE
to set the "today" variable, reverting back to the empty string if not
set. It is up to our build system to properly set this date.
Ticket: #6911
So far, if a port was found to be single which was earlier a part of the
range, port + 1 was added to the list to honor the range that it was a
part of. But, this is incorrect in case the port is 65535 or if the port
was found to be of range when it was earlier a single port.
Bug 6896
Expose LoadYamlConfig as SCLoadYamlConfig and remove it from
SuricataInit. This is required to allow the library user the ability
customize the loading of the configuration, for example doing some
programmatic configuration then loading a configuration file.
A configuration sequence node needs to have name, which is just its
index in the sequence.
Discovered by calling ConfDump() after Suricata was fully initialized.
Move the contents of SuricataMain into the `main()` function found in
main.c. This forces the Suricata application to bootstrap and run
Suricata through the same interfaces as a library user might do.
Required exposing StartInternalRunMode as SCStartInternalRunmode. Its
arguable whether those "actions" belong in the library or just the
application, but I think that is separation we can look at later.
For now the lib example and Suricata's own main are the same, however
the example will probably extend more into programmatically
configuring Suricata or dynamically registering a runmode, which
doesn't really belong the main Suricata application.
