[PATCH 3/5] audit: store audit_pid as a struct pid pointer

Richard Guy Briggs rgb at redhat.com
Mon Dec 23 22:27:37 UTC 2013


- PID will be reported in the relevant querying PID namespace.

- Refuse to change the current audit_pid if the new value does not
  point to an existing process.

- Refuse to set the current audit_pid if the new value is not its own PID
  (unless it is being unset).

- Convert audit_pid into the initial pid namespace for reports
