Funny you mention this, while I was hunting for the root cause of the problem, I had a patch which did just that, adding a pid struct to the audit_field struct. Eventually we will have to go that route as (sadly) a PID is no longer sufficient to identify a process on the system, you need PID+ns. We'll still have the find_pid() problem then, but there are ways around that by being smarter about how we add/delete/store filtering rules. I opted for the patch I posted here because as you point out we really only work in the init namespace and it didn't muddle the bugfix with new functionality. -- paul moore security and virtualization @ redhat -- Linux-audit mailing list Linux-audit@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-audit
