From the auditctl man page:
This option lets you
determine how you want the kernel to handle critical
errors.
Example conditions where this flag is consulted includes:
trans‐
mission errors to userspace audit daemon, backlog
limit
exceeded, out of kernel memory, and rate limit exceeded.
The
default value is 1.
This is only for the kernel. User space error handling is dictated by the
*_action settings in auditd.conf.
