22 * Written by Rickard E. (Rik) Faith <faith@redhat.com>
24 * Goals: 1) Integrate fully with SELinux.
25 * 2) Minimal run-time overhead:
26 * a) Minimal when syscall auditing is disabled (audit_enable=0).
27 * b) Small when syscall auditing is enabled and no audit record
28 * is generated (defer as much work as possible to record
30 * i) context is allocated,
31 * ii) names from getname are stored without a copy, and
32 * iii) inode information stored from path_lookup.
33 * 3) Ability to disable syscall auditing at boot time (audit=0).
34 * 4) Usable by other parts of the kernel (if audit_log* is called,
35 * then a syscall record will be generated automatically for the
37 * 5) Netlink interface to user-space.
38 * 6) Support low-overhead kernel-based filtering to minimize the
39 * information that must be passed to user-space.
41 * Example user-space utilities: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/
