Re: [RFC PATCH 1/2] audit: allow other filter list types for AUDIT_EXE

This patch removes the restriction of the AUDIT_EXE field to only SYSCALL filter and teaches audit_filter to recognize this field. This makes it possible to write rule lists such as: auditctl -a exit,always [some general rule] # Filter out events with executable name /bin/exe1 or /bin/exe2: auditctl -a exclude,always -F exe=/bin/exe1 auditctl -a exclude,always -F exe=/bin/exe2 See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/54 Signed-off-by: Ondrej Mosnacek <omosnace(a)redhat.com&gt;
