Note btw that since SELinux does immediate generation of audit messages
via audit_log* from its hooks, this automatically enables the auditable
flag (since audit_log_start calls audit_get_stamp, and audit_get_stamp
enables the auditable flag).  That is why further audit records are
written at syscall exit whenever SELinux emits an audit message from a
hook.  But in your case, as you are just adding data to a list from your
hook, you need to separately enable the auditable flag in some manner.
