[PATCH 1/2] audit: add call argument to socketcall auditing

Sven Schnelle svens at linux.ibm.com
Tue May 3 09:02:11 UTC 2022


socketcall auditing misses the call argument:

type=SOCKETCALL msg=audit: nargs=3 a0=10 a1=3 a2=c

which renders socketcall auditing (almost) useless. Add the call
argument so it is possible to decode the actual syscall from the
audit log:

type=SOCKETCALL msg=audit: call=1 nargs=3 a0=10 a1=3 a2=c
