Suricata

Turn flowvars into a proper lua lib implementation.

local flowvar = require “suricata.flowvar”

function thread_init
    -- translates name into a handle (so really an ID)
    myvar = flowvar.get("my special name")
end

function match
    -- get data for handle
    flowvar_data = myvar:data()
    -- some inspection of flowvar_data
end
