A page would be a problem for audit records. What I see is a NULL terminated list of arguments which the program name is argv[0]. So, you'd want to grab that one. Butyou could have something in there with PATH_MAX and whitespaces which would be excessively long. > As a simple example, a basic example from samsung gets truncated. > > com.samsung.myapp > > > > Solution: > > > Get the proc cmdline info (not trust worthy, but can help debugging > > > > Android) > > > > > type=1300 msg=audit(1383068585.326:205): arch=40000028 syscall=5 > > > > per=840000 > > > > > success=yes exit=38 a0=74d86d34 a1=20241 a2=180 a3=74d86d0c items=1 > > > ppid=296 pid=1378 auid=4294967295 uid=1027 gid=1027 euid=1027 suid=1027 > > > fsuid=1027 egid=1027 sgid=1027 fsgid=1027 tty=(none) ses=4294967295 > > > comm=4173796E635461736B202331 exe="/system/bin/app_process" > > > cmdline="com.android.nfc" subj=u:r:nfc:s0 key=(null) > > > > > > Now I know it was the NFC app > > > > What do you get on x86_64 auditing a shell or python script with your same > > patch?

All have the 16 character limit. But we would only want argv[0] and not the arguments. -Steve
