Since people have asked about this off list...
I have uploaded a state diagram of how the audit system is supposed to work to
my people page: http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/
This only includes the system events that give the user session context. The
whole user session can do anything based on the local rules/selinux
settings/file permissions. The point is to define the boundaries that can be
used to constrain the possible user events.
I'll upload the suite in its current form a bit later. It is a work in
progress...but identifies systemd as not being consistent in sending events.
Not to mention lightdm not being audit aware at all...
