* Use correct copyright years.
Also include the start year.
* Improve copyright notices.
Use the proper start year instead of just 2018.
Add the right owner Draios dba Sysdig.
Add copyright notices to some files that were missing them.
Replace references to GNU Public License to Apache license in:
- COPYING file
- README
- all source code below falco
- rules files
- rules and code below test directory
- code below falco directory
- entrypoint for docker containers (but not the Dockerfiles)
I didn't generally add copyright notices to all the examples files, as
they aren't core falco. If they did refer to the gpl I changed them to
apache.
sinsp_utils::get_current_time_ns() has the same purpose as
get_epoch_ns(), and now that we're including the token bucket in
falco_engine, it's easy to package the dependency. So use that function
instead.
Add token-bucket based rate limiting for falco notifications.
The token bucket is implemented in token_bucket.cpp (actually in the
engine directory, just to make it easier to include in other
programs). It maintains a current count of tokens (i.e. right to send a
notification). Its main method is claim(), which attemps to claim a
token and returns true if one was claimed successfully. It has a
configurable configurable max burst size and rate. The token bucket
gains "rate" tokens per second, up to a maximum of max_burst tokens.
These parameters are configurable in falco.yaml via the config
options (defaults shown):
outputs:
rate: 1
max_burst: 1000
In falco_outputs::handle_event(), try to claim a token, and if
unsuccessful log a debug message and return immediately.
