Related to the changes in https://github.com/draios/agent/pull/267,
improve error messages when trying to load sets of rules with errors:
- Check that yaml parsing of rules_content actually resulted in
something.
- Return an error for rules that have an empty name.
- Return an error for yaml objects that aren't a rule/macro/list.
- When compiling, don't print an error message, simply return one,
including a wrapper "can not compile ..." string.
Move the c++ and lua code implementing falco engine/falco common to its
own directory userspace/engine. It's compiled as a static library
libfalco_engine.a, and has its own CMakeLists.txt so it can be included
by other projects.
The engine's CMakeLists.txt has a add_subdirectory for the falco rules
directory, so including the engine also builds the rules.
The variables you need to set to use the engine's CMakeLists.txt are:
- CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX: the root directory below which everything is
installed.
- FALCO_ETC_DIR: where to install the rules file.
- FALCO_SHARE_DIR: where to install lua code, relative to the
- install/package root.
- LUAJIT_INCLUDE: where to find header files for lua.
- FALCO_SINSP_LIBRARY: the library containing sinsp code. It will be
- considered a dependency of the engine.
- LPEG_LIB/LYAML_LIB/LIBYAML_LIB: locations for third-party libraries.
- FALCO_COMPONENT: if set, will be included as a part of any install()
commands.
Instead of specifying /usr/share/falco in config_falco_*.h.in, use
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and FALCO_SHARE_DIR.
The lua code for the engine has also moved, so the two lua source
directories (userspace/engine/lua and userspace/falco/lua) need to be
available separately via falco_common, so make it an argument to
falco_common::init.
As a part of making it easy to include in another project, also clean up
LPEG build/defs. Modify build-lpeg to add a PREFIX argument to allow for
object files/libraries being in an alternate location, and when building
lpeg, put object files in a build/ subdirectory.
