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.

When the packet load is low, Suricata can run in interrupt
mode. This more resembles the classic approach of processing
packets - CPU cores run low and only fetch packets
on interrupt.
Ticket: #6696
(cherry picked from commit 2a2898053c)
Our code handles Uint ranges as exclusive, but for bsize, our
documentation stated that they're inclusive.
Cf. from uint.rs:
DetectUintMode::DetectUintModeRange => {
if val > x.arg1 && val < x.arg2 {
return true;
}
}
Task #6708
(cherry picked from commit 244a35d539)
Remove references that are mentioning Suricata 3 or less
As a note - only one Suricata 4 reference found:
(suricata-yaml.rst:"In 4.1.x")
Fast pattern selection criteria can be internally found by inspecting
SupportFastPatternForSigMatchList and SigTableSetup functions.
Ticket: #6699
(cherry picked from commit 6e4cc79b39)
Previous integration of hugepage analysis only fetched data
from /proc/meminfo. However this proved to be often
deceiving mainly for providing only global information and
not taking into account different hugepage sizes (e.g. 1GB
hugepages) and different NUMA nodes.
Ticket: #6697
(cherry picked from commit ca6f7c2d00)
Add a new rule keyword "requires" that allows a rule to require specific
Suricata versions and/or Suricata features to be enabled.
Example:
requires: feature geoip, version >= 7.0.0, version < 8;
requires: version >= 7.0.3 < 8
requires: version >= 7.0.3 < 8 | >= 8.0.3

In our conf.py we reference some ReadTheDocs stylesheets that appear to
be old and break formatting of some items like bulletted lists.
Bug: #6589
(cherry picked from commit cc0adaaf4a)
Add a more visible explanation of that requests, responses, frontend and
and backend are, in Pgsql context, to avoid having to repeat that over
different portions of the docs.
(cherry picked from commit bba3d4fc63)
A CanceldRequest can occur after any query request, and is sent over a
new connection, leading to a new flow. It won't take any reply, but, if
processed by the backend, will lead to an ErrorResponse.
Task #6577
(cherry picked from commit 30ac77ce65)
Our tls fields not_after and not_before are actually logged as
`notafter` and `notbefore`, but were documented with the underscore.
Update the documentation, since updating the log format itself would be
a breaking change.
Task #5494
(cherry picked from commit a649a92afd)
Although we have an updated version of instructions for installation
from git, our install guide was only referring to RedMine, which is less
up-to-date.
Kept that reference, since it might still be useful for non-Ubuntu
cases.
- Use SPHINX_BUILD instead of HAVE_SPHINX_BUILD, as here we're
actually using the path of the program.
- Wrap some elements in [] as is done in modern idiomatic autoconf
When viewing the docs online at Readthedocs, or similar it might be
immediately apparent what version of the documentation is being
displayed. Display the version on the first line before the table of
contents to make it clear.
