However, one question for you ... are we ever going to see a device or inode set to -1 in the userspace facing API? In other words, should the new #defines go in the uapi headers or simply in kernel/audit.h? Unless it is part of the API, let's leave it out of uapi as we have to be very careful about that stuff and I'd prefer to keep it minimal.

Also, if we can put the #defines in kernel/audit.h we can use the proper type for AUDIT_DEV_UNSET which would make me happy. > diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/audit.h b/include/uapi/linux/audit.h > index d3475e1..971df22 100644 > --- a/include/uapi/linux/audit.h > +++ b/include/uapi/linux/audit.h > @@ -440,6 +440,8 @@ struct audit_tty_status { > }; > > #define AUDIT_UID_UNSET (unsigned int)-1 > +#define AUDIT_INO_UNSET (unsigned long)-1 > +#define AUDIT_DEV_UNSET (unsigned)-1 > > /* audit_rule_data supports filter rules with both integer and string > * fields.
