AUDIT_REQUEST_STATUS(3) Linux Audit API AUDIT_REQUEST_STATUS(3)
audit_request_status - Request status of the audit system
#include <libaudit.h> int audit_request_status(int fd);
audit_request_status requests that the kernel send status structure describing various settings. The audit_status structure is as follows: struct audit_status { __u32 mask; /* Bit mask for valid entries */ __u32 enabled; /* 1 = enabled, 0 = disabled */ __u32 failure; /* Failure-to-log action */ __u32 pid; /* pid of auditd process */ __u32 rate_limit; /* messages rate limit (per second) */ __u32 backlog_limit; /* waiting messages limit */ __u32 lost; /* messages lost */ __u32 backlog; /* messages waiting in queue */ };
The return value is <= 0 on error, otherwise it is the netlink sequence id number. This function can have any error that sendto would encounter.
audit_open(3), audit_get_reply(3), auditd(8).
