[PATCH ghau51/ghau40 v8 14/14] libaudit: add support to get and set capcontid on a task

Richard Guy Briggs rgb at redhat.com
Tue Dec 31 19:58:21 UTC 2019


Add support to be able to set a capability to allow a task to set the
audit container identifier of descendants.

See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-userspace/issues/51
See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/90
See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-testsuite/issues/64
See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/wiki/RFE-Audit-Container-ID

Add the audit_get_capcontid() and audit_set_capcontid() calls analogous
to CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL for descendant user namespaces.

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This function returns the pid task's audit capability container identifier attribute.
+
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+
+This function returns the audit capability container identifier value if it is implemented. It will return a \-1 if the audit capability container identifier is unavailable.
+
+.SH "ERRORS"
+
+This function returns \-2 on failure. Additionally, in the event of a real error, errno would be set. The function can set errno based on failures of open, read, or strtoull.

+.TH "AUDIT_SET_CAPCONTID" "26" "Aug 2019" "Red Hat" "Linux Audit API"
+.SH NAME

+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B #include <libaudit.h>
+.sp
+int audit_set_capcontid(pid_t pid, uint32_t capcontid);
+
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+
+This function sets the pid task's attribute capability container id with the value of capcontid. The capcontid value may only be set by programs with the CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL capability in the initial user namespace or with capcontid. This normally means the root account or root in a container.
+.sp
+The capcontid value is part of the task structure and is inheritted by child processes within a user namespace. It is used to enable the capability to set container identifier of a child task in a descendent user namespace.  Container orchestrator/engines should set this value only on children it wishes to be able to set audit container identifiers.
+
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+
+This function returns 0 on success and non-zero otherwise.
