New versions of Clam AntiVirus are using a mutation of Aho-Corasick
|
||
|
|
pattern matching algorithm. This algorithm uses a finite state pattern
|
||
|
|
matching automaton [<A
|
||
|
|
HREF="node44.html#clr">1</A>]. The algorithm itself is a generalization of
|
||
|
|
the Knuth-Morris-Pratt algorithm. Please look at <I>matcher.h</I> for data
|
||
|
|
type definitions. The automaton is represented by the trie. Trie is
|
||
|
|
a rooted tree with some specific properties [<A
|
||
|
|
HREF="node44.html#acwww">2</A>]. Each node
|
||
|
|
of the trie represents some state of the automaton. In the implementation,
|
||
|
|
the node is defined as following:
|
||
|
|
<PRE>
|
||
|
|
struct node {
|
||
|
|
int islast;
|
||
|
|
struct patt *list;
|
||
|
|
int maxpatlen;
|
||
|
|
struct node *next[NUM_CHILDS], *trans[NUM_CHILDS], *fail;
|
||
|
|
};
|
||
|
|
</PRE>
|
||
|
|
