audit watch rules and docker containers

[Rakesh]

Hi Steve,
Thanks for taking the time to look at it. I have been following the conversation on adding container support to audit, however I am not looking for container id in the event.
I did some more tests and find it works as expected for syscalls -
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S connect -F exit!=-ENOENT -F key=connect

and the audit event in log is -
arch=c000003e syscall=42 success=yes exit=0 a0=1 a1=5562d1bb40f8 a2=16 a3=7ffd9db76460 items=1 ppid=2 pid=60470 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 comm="systemd-cgroups" exe="/lib/systemd/systemd-cgroups-agent" key="connect"

Bit it's the watch events which are not working.

Thanks,Rakesh

Container support is just now being implemented.

So, there is no good way right now to make this work like you would
expect it.
