[PATCH v3 4/4] ima: Differentiate auditing policy rules from "audit" actions

Stefan Berger stefanb at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Mon Jun 4 20:54:55 UTC 2018


The AUDIT_INTEGRITY_RULE is used for auditing IMA policy rules and
the IMA "audit" policy action.  This patch defines
AUDIT_INTEGRITY_POLICY_RULE to reflect the IMA policy rules.

Since we defined a new message type we can now also pass the
audit_context and get an associated SYSCALL record. This now produces
the following records when parsing IMA policy's rules:

type=UNKNOWN[1807] msg=audit(1527888965.738:320): action=audit \
  func=MMAP_CHECK mask=MAY_EXEC res=1
type=UNKNOWN[1807] msg=audit(1527888965.738:320): action=audit \
  func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ res=1
type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1527888965.738:320): arch=c000003e syscall=1 \
  success=yes exit=17 a0=1 a1=55bcfcca9030 a2=11 a3=7fcc1b55fb38 \
  items=0 ppid=1567 pid=1601 auid=0 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 \
  fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=tty2 ses=2 comm="echo" \
  exe="/usr/bin/echo" \
  subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null)
