Re: [PATCH v3] audit: log nftables configuration change events once per table

Reduce logging of nftables events to a level similar to iptables. Restore the table field to list the table, adding the generation. Indicate the op as the most significant operation in the event. A couple of sample events: type=PROCTITLE msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.801:143) : proctitle=/usr/bin/python3 -s /usr/sbin/firewalld --nofork --nopid type=SYSCALL msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.801:143) : arch=x86_64 syscall=sendmsg success=yes exit=172 a0=0x6 a1=0x7ffdcfcbe650 a2=0x0 a3=0x7ffdcfcbd52c items=0 ppid=1 pid=367 auid=unset uid=root gid=root euid=root suid=root fsuid=root egid=roo t sgid=root fsgid=root tty=(none) ses=unset comm=firewalld exe=/usr/bin/python3.9 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 key=(null) type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.801:143) : table=firewalld:2 family=ipv6 entries=1 op=nft_register_table pid=367 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.801:143) : table=firewalld:2 family=ipv4 entries=1 op=nft_register_table pid=367 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.801:143) : table=firewalld:2 family=inet entries=1 op=nft_register_table pid=367 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld type=PROCTITLE msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.839:144) : proctitle=/usr/bin/python3 -s /usr/sbin/firewalld --nofork --nopid type=SYSCALL msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.839:144) : arch=x86_64 syscall=sendmsg success=yes exit=22792 a0=0x6 a1=0x7ffdcfcbe650 a2=0x0 a3=0x7ffdcfcbd52c items=0 ppid=1 pid=367 auid=unset uid=root gid=root euid=root suid=root fsuid=root egid=r oot sgid=root fsgid=root tty=(none) ses=unset comm=firewalld exe=/usr/bin/python3.9 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 key=(null) type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.839:144) : table=firewalld:3 family=ipv6 entries=30 op=nft_register_chain pid=367 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.839:144) : table=firewalld:3 family=ipv4 entries=30 op=nft_register_chain pid=367 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld type=NETFILTER_CFG msg=audit(2021-03-18 09:30:49.839:144) : table=firewalld:3 family=inet entries=165 op=nft_register_chain pid=367 subj=system_u:system_r:firewalld_t:s0 comm=firewalld The issue was originally documented in https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/124 Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb(a)redhat.com&gt; --- Changelog: v3: - fix function braces, reduce parameter scope - pre-allocate nft_audit_data per table in step 1, bail on ENOMEM v2: - convert NFT ops to array indicies in nft2audit_op[] - use linux lists - use functions for each of collection and logging of audit data --- include/linux/audit.h | 28 ++++++ net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c | 160 ++++++++++++++++------------------ 2 files changed, 105 insertions(+), 83 deletions(-)
