I'm not sure, I'm not overly familiar with the auditd/auditctl
filtering capabilities.  There are several people on this list that
are far more knowledgeable about that than me.

The idea behind the sockaddr_storage struct was to create a structure
that could be used to represent any address family that the system
supports.  I don't believe there is a standard size across OSes due to
different level of support, padding, etc; in other words, it's
probably best not to rely on a specific size of sockaddr_storage.
