Question, is it intended for:

auditctl -a exclude,never -F msgtype=CONFIG_CHANGE

(being active at different times) to both block the CONFIG_CHANGE
messages? I would assume that exclude,never to _not_ block messages of
that type?

I can't see a reason to have both for the same msgtype. The first rule to match "wins" though, so the second rule would not apply.

True, but I didn't mean for you to interpret them as being active together. Example:

auditctl -a exclude,always -F msgtype=CONFIG_CHANGE
auditctl -a entry,always -S chmod -- no message logged

auditctl -D

auditctl -a exclude,never -F msgtype=CONFIG_CHANGE
auditctl -a entry,always -S chmod -- no message logged

The 2nd no message logged doesn't make sense to me, as the exclude,never is in fact causing the messages to not get logged.
