Summary
Snort is an open source network intrusion prevention and detection system (IDS/IPS) developed by Sourcefire. Combining the benefits of signature, protocol, and anomaly-based inspection, Snort is the most widely deployed IDS/IPS technology worldwide. With millions of downloads and approximately 300,000 registered users, Snort has become the de facto standard for IPS.

USE flags
General
- active-response
- Enables support for automatically sending TCP resets and ICMP unreachable messages to terminate connections. Used with inline deployments.
- control-socket
- Enables Snort's control socket.
- debug
- Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces
- file-inspect
- Enables extended file inspection capabilities.
- flexresp3
- Enables support for new flexable response preprocessor for enabling connection tearing for inline deployments. Replaces flexresp and flexresp2.
- gre
- Enable support for inspecting and processing Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) packet headers. Only needed if you are monitoring GRE tunnels.
- high-availability
- Enables high-availability state sharing.
- inline-init-failopen
- Enables support to allow traffic to pass (fail-open) through inline deployments while snort is starting and not ready to begin inspecting traffic. If this option is not enabled, network traffic will not pass (fail-closed) until snort has fully started and is ready to perform packet inspection.
- large-pcap-64bit
- Allows Snort to read pcap files that are larger than 2 GB. ONLY VALID FOR 64bit SYSTEMS!
- libtirpc
- Build against net-libs/libtirpc for RPC support
- linux-smp-stats
- Enable accurate statistics reporting through /proc on systems with multiple processors.
- non-ether-decoders
- Enable decoding of non-ethernet protocols such as TokenRing, FDDI, IPX, etc.
- open-appid
- Enable OpenAppID, an open, application-focused detection language and processing module for Snort that enables users to create, share, and implement application detection. Requires dev-lang/luajit.
- perfprofiling
- Enables support for preprocessor and rule performance profiling using the perfmonitor preprocessor.
- ppm
- Enables support for setting per rule or per packet latency limits. Helps protect against introducing network latency with inline deployments.
- react
- Enables support for the react rule keyword. Supports interception, termination, and redirection of HTTP connections.
- reload-error-restart
- Enables support for completely restarting snort if an error is detected during a reload.
- selinux
- !!internal use only!! Security Enhanced Linux support, this must be set by the selinux profile or breakage will occur
- shared-rep
- Enables the use of shared memory for the Reputation Preprocessor (Only available on Linux systems)
- side-channel
- Enables Snort's side channel.
- sourcefire
- Enables Sourcefire specific build options, which include --enable-perfprofiling and --enable-ppm.
- threads
- Add threads support for various packages. Usually pthreads
lua_single_target
- luajit
- Build for LuaJIT only

proj/gentoo: Initial commit
This commit represents a new era for Gentoo: Storing the gentoo-x86 tree in Git, as converted from CVS. This commit is the start of the NEW history. Any historical data is intended to be grafted onto this point. Creation process: 1. Take final CVS checkout snapshot 2. Remove ALL ChangeLog* files 3. Transform all Manifests to thin 4. Remove empty Manifests 5. Convert all stale $Header$/$Id$ CVS keywords to non-expanded Git $Id$ 5.1. Do not touch files with -kb/-ko keyword flags. Signed-off-by: Robin H.
