Pruned many compiler warnings by removing the packing directive and alignment modifiers. Padding that was otherwise performed by the modifiers, have been added manually. This change did not affect code generation.
RCON upgrade with additional logging system improvements:
* Netconsole's can now log received messages in color, even when the RCON server has ANSI colors disabled; logs are fully composed locally.
* RCON server now also sends the log type over the wire, along with the (already existing) context.
* SDK logging code is now shared with the standalone netconsole application.
* Improved logging readability for the standalone netconsole application.
Changed all loggers to use the internal 'CoreMsg/CoreMsgV' functions. Significantly reduced duplicate code and CPU time. Code is also much more robust.
* Code now only acquires mutex lock when the actual logging part takes place.
* Code now only checks and strip ANSI rows if its enabled to begin with.
* Code now supports setting log levels, which ultimately could be tweaked with a cvar.
* Changed logger and file names to be more readable.
TODO:
* The RCON protocol has to be modified to accommodate these changes.
Implements the client side CPU statistics logic. An additional check has been added which checks if 'SVC_ServerTick::m_NetTick.m_nCommandTick' equals '-1'. This instructs the client to only update the remote statistics; actual tick members won't get updated as this causes simulation problems.
* Use game's CNetAdr RCON and socket creator.
* Add support for constructing host from [ip]:port format in the netconsole client.
* Pass 'netadr_t' parameter by reference to 'CSocketCreator::OnSocketAccepted'.
Huge cleanup for dedicated. All patches in 'opcodes.cpp' are now directly applied to the executable, and kept as reference in the source file. The patch logic is commented. Any other patches for the dedicated server executable should be documented in the patch file found in 'r5dev/resource/patch'.
This change was planned for a long time. This moves all REGISTER calls to a single translation unit, this is required as we currently added a very dirty workaround for not registering duplicates by checking if VFTable pointer was already present in the vector... Registering from single translation unit prevents duplicate instances that gets created if header is included by more cpp files.
Reworking this reduced 100kb+ of compiled code. This commit also reworked the way functions/variables/constant gets logged with their addresses; the new code formats them on the fly, and allows for resize at any time. Formatting is no longer required by programmer.
TODO: currently there are some compile errors for dedicated and client dll's. These will be resolved very soon as they need to be properly worked out still (server & client only stuff needs to be properly split). Use the 'main' (stable) branch for the time being if you need to compile these dll's.
* Changed 'CClient' handle time to 'edict_t' which is an alias of 'uint16_t'.
* Changed 'g_pServerGameDLL' and 'g_pServerGameClients' init (obtain from factory instead).
* Use interface version macro's for obtaining factory pointers instead.
* Added 'g_pServerGameEntities'.
* Used 'htonl'/'ntohl' for constructing the length prefix.
* Used static socket/address members instead of pointers.
* Used const qualifier where possible.
* Changed length prefix field type to 'u_long'.
* Removed extraneous include.
* Properly escaped percentage characters on the RCON game client for the ImGui console.
The Season 3 versions of the executable deadlock when threaded bone setup has been enabled on the client while the listen server has ran at least once during the process lifetime.
Calling Host_Error at this stage will cause a dead lock. Removed the call after performing several test (i think the reason all error calls are removed as of Titanfall 2 and Apex Legends (compared to Titanfall 1) is for this reason). Returning false does the job and allows the client to recover as soon as a valid packet comes in.
Implement bounds check for non-sanitized value of u.m_nNewEntity.
Debug builds of the engine have an assertion, however in release these are stripped.
This fixes a full chain client RCE exploit, for more information, see: https://ctf.re/source-engine/exploitation/2021/05/01/source-engine-2/
Client's can run string commands on the server with no rate limit. This means when you run 50k+ commands that are unknown, or spam 30k 'status' commands, you will be able to hang the server for 800/1200ms (15k/30kms if script printing to console is enabled!). Although the netchan processing budget system will kick you, the damage has already been done at this point. This change effectively breaks the ability to DOS the server from the client using networked string commands.
In easier words; binding 'status' to your mousewheel will get you kicked from the server, without hitching the server.
* Use 'CClient::Disconnect(..)' for all kicks and bans (this automatically clears the entire CClient slot, and removes the net channel).
* Only force disconnect when 'CNetChan::m_nSignonState' has a value that is not NULL.
* Clear the ServerPlayer slot on 'CClient::Disconnect(..)' and 'CClient::Connect(..)'.
* Only kick player for NetChannel overflow when value exceeds processing budget (not equals).
Implement net message process budget (channel gets removed if value is exceeded).
Use 'net_processLimit' to enable the implementation on the server. It will get enabled by default after testing and some cleanup. This helps against people trying to slow the server down by spamming net messages with a higher rate, e.g. using 'bind "mousewheel_up" "status"'.
* Replaced the boolean 'fatal' parameter with a error code parameter, anything non-null will prompt a message (fatal) and terminate the process with given error code.
* Fixed bug where the global ostreamsink for spdlog did NOT get cleared in 'SQVM_PrintFunc' when cvar 'sq_showvmoutput' was < 3. Moved to global scope.
* Added error message for when detouring the process has failed, with the error code.
* Only call 'Plat_GetProcessUpTime()' once per log, (improves performance and fixes bug where the error message box would show a different time stamp than what is logged into the console or file).
* All TIER0 loggers only log to notify and console when the SDK engine has fully initialized and detoured all functions.
When fatal is set, the function will show a error dialogue, which will halt the process and close when the message is dismissed. Else we will end up in a crash.
* Fix all compiler error for GameSDK on S0 and S1.
* Remove some unused patterns and globals (launch performance gains of 100ms).
* Remove most duplicate patterns.
* Relocate globals from engine to a more appropriate location.
* Renamed some unknown vars to a more appropriate name (most of these where obtained a while back, but as we reversed more parts of the engine, some of these vars become known).
* Renamed some vars to fit the naming convention used in the SDK.
* Fixed pattern debug logging using the wrong pointer, thus displaying the wrong address.
Renamed to EGlobalContext_t and used globally for all context types combined into one (required for rcon messages for example, as we do native and script messages, while also retaining colors).
* Removed some unused signatures.
* Named 2 CBaseFileSystem methods, and applied them to 'MOD_ProcessPakQueue()'.
* Renamed 'qword_1671061C8' to 'g_pMTVFTaskItem'.
* Renamed 'g_pMapVPKCache' to 'g_szMTVFItemName'.
* Only set first byte to 0 in 'g_szMTVFItemName' (actual size is 0x100, not 0x40).
* Use GetVirtualMethodTable for VFTable pointers.
* Pack CClientState to 4 bytes (this aligns it properly in memory).
* Use CClientState members directly for setting m_bRestrictServerCommands/m_bRestrictClientCommands.
* Use c++ methods as much as possible.
* Use enum types for accessing NavMesh objects from array.
* Use size_t for for loops when testing against size types.
* Don't compute strlen twice of more on the same string.
* Don't use unnecessary c string casts if there is a method with a std::string overload.
* Don't create string objects from string pointers if we could use them directly.
* Don't initialize RCON password twice on each change, and don't set if the new password equals the old.
