This allows usage of verbose/debug in portrule/hostrule and access to all
functionality of NSE, including sockets. So for example, we can now do:
function portrule (host, port)
local response = http.get(host, port, "/");
stdnse.debug1(response.body)
...
end
The verbose/debug function did not work in rule functions because the
introspection API (getid, gettid, etc.) only work when NSE is in the main loop.
The main loop sets the required internal variable current needed by the API.
List of changes:
stdnse.lua:
o debug/verbose check the debugging/verbosity level much earlier to allow
returning if nothing will be printed.
o Simplified debug/verbose logic to handle the optional first argument
better.
o made debug/verbose local functions to avoid using globals and allow self
tail calls
nse_main.lua:
o The logic for adding threads via a rule function is simplified. So long as
the script has the desired rule function, a thread is always returned.
Evaluation of the rule function is done while NSE is in the main loop (i.e.
not in script:new_thread()). The rule function only determines if the action
function is run.
o [Not a change:] If the action function will be run or was run then we see
the usual "Starting X" and "Finished X" messages from NSE.
o Use Lua 5.2's pack function instead of the slightly more expensive
{n = select("#", ...), ...} idiom.
o New stdnse.getinfo introspection function which is used by stdnse.debug.
google.com can resolve to a different set of addresses each time you
resolve it, which makes the addrset tests fail. Use scanme.nmap.org
instead, since (at least for now) that has only one address assigned.
This one also fixes format string bugs:
stdnse.print_debug(foo) --> stdnse.debug1("%s", foo)
$ sed -i 's/stdnse.print_debug( *\([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\) *)/stdnse.debug1("%s", \1)/' *.nse
$ sed -i 's/stdnse.print_debug( *\([0-9]*\) *, *\([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\) *)/stdnse.debug\1("%s", \2)/' *.nse
$ sed -i 's/stdnse.print_debug("[-a-z0-9]*:\s*\([^"]*\)"/stdnse.debug1("\1"/' *.nse
$ sed -i 's/stdnse.print_debug(\([0-9]*\),\s*"[-a-z0-9]*:\s*\([^"]*\)"/stdnse.debug\1("\2"/' *.nse
