I don't know if that's a bug or a "feature" but IMHO the file hash is a must apart from the fact of being "TRUNCATED" or "CLOSED".

This is intentional. If we know the file is not complete we don't hash it.

I really understand your point of view but I don't share it, for me the fileinfo->hash is (must be) the hash of something written to disk while the fileinfo->state marks the state of that file, if that hash is important or not to the user will be relevant to the user.

If the fileinfo->state didn't exist it would be a problem but in fact it exists so... but that's just my opinion. ;)

Thank you anyway Victor

Is this something we might want to have as an option to configure the behavior?

IMHO it would be very great.

I currently make an internal patch for adding that behaviour to the current 4.0.0-beta1 (that lacks a configurable option, btw) and, sincerely, I don't feel like having to support patching the outcoming versions. :)

"made", not "make" :)

I guess that's a patch that doesn't need your support for the future if it's well done, so don't bother to submit a pull request :)

There's a PR queued on GitHub adding that feature with a new option named 'force-hash-truncated', the PR is https://github.com/inliniac/suricata/pull/2823

Would you mind to take a look?

Hope this helps in any way or another :)

The last PR I could find was https://github.com/OISF/suricata/pull/2898 so how should we proceed?

If you're asking me I have to say that the aforementioned PR was closed by Victor Julien with no clear reason (at least for me).
