Steve,
Can I suggest you modify src/ausearch-lol.c:check_events() to add in the
AUDIT_PROCTITLE check (will reduce memory overhead as events will be
flushed faster).
OK. Good suggestion. The SVN repo has been updated.
Also can we ask Richard put a comment into the appropriate location
in
the kernel code to indicate the link between ausearch/aurport/auparse
depending on AUDIT_PROCTITLE being the last record of an event if
present.
I'll let them answer.
That said one of the things I want to add in the next development cycle is the
ability to get rid of proctitle records if the admin wants to. They waste a
lot of space. But if they are missing then we have the same performance as we
did before I added this patch.
