This new API allows for different SPM implementations, using a function
pointer table like that used for MPM.
This change also switches over the paths that make use of
DetectContentData (which previously used BoyerMoore directly) to the new
API.
The idea is: if mpm is negated, it's both on mpm and nonmpm sid lists
and we can kick it out in that case during the merge sort.
It only works for patterns that are 'independent'. This means that the
rule doesn't need to only match if the negated mpm pattern is limited
to the first 10 bytes for example.
Or more generally, an negated mpm pattern that has depth, offset,
distance or within settings can't be handled this way. These patterns
are not added to the mpm at all, but just to to non-mpm list. This
makes sense as they will *always* need manual inspection.
Similarly, a pattern that is 'chopped' always needs validation. This
is because in this case we only inspect a part of the final pattern.
If a pattern has matched on mpm, don't re-inspect it later, subject to certain
conditions met by the pattern - namely, not negated, right chop, no replacet
attached to it.
The http_server_body content modifier modifies the previous content to inspect
the normalized (dechunked, unzipped) http_server_body. The workings are similar
to http_client_body. Additionally, a new pcre flag was introduced "/S".
To facilitate this change the signature flags field was changed to be 64 bit.
This patch adds support for the replace keyword. It is used with
content to change selected part of the payload. The major point
with this patch is that having a replace keyword made necessary
to avoid all stream level check because we need to access to the
could-be-modified packet payload.
One of the main difficulty is to handle complex signature. If there is
other content check, we must do the substitution when we're sure all
match are valid. The patch adds an attribute to the thread context
variable to be able to deal with recursivity of the match function.
Replace is only activated in IPS mode and apply only to raw match.
