[PATCH ghak90 v10 05/11] audit: add support for non-syscall auxiliary records

From: Richard Guy Briggs <hidden>
Date: 2020-12-21 16:59:43
Also in: linux-fsdevel, lkml, netdev, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: audit subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Paul Moore, Eric Paris, Linus Torvalds

Standalone audit records have the timestamp and serial number generated
on the fly and as such are unique, making them standalone.  This new
function audit_alloc_local() generates a local audit context that will
be used only for a standalone record and its auxiliary record(s).  The
context is discarded immediately after the local associated records are
produced.

A new flag, "local" was used rather than "in_syscall" since it would be
overloading the original purpose and meaning.  Events using this
function may not be triggered by a syscall but still need records
linked by timestamp and serial.
