Re: [PATCH ghak73 V3] audit: re-structure audit field valid checks

Multiple checks were being done in one switch case statement that started to cause some redundancies and awkward exceptions. Separate the valid field and op check from the select valid values checks. Enforce the elimination of meaningless bitwise and greater/lessthan checks on string fields and other fields with unrelated scalar values. Please see the github issue https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/73 Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb(a)redhat.com&gt; --- Changelog: v3: - remove op negation for WATCH, DIR, PERM, FILETYPE (ghak114) - move AUDIT_{SUBJ_{CLR,SEN},OBJ_LEV_{LOW,HIGH}} to range v2: - address WATCH, DIR, FILETYPE, PERM lack of op checking - touch up switch statement formatting kernel/auditfilter.c | 56 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------- 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-)
