May work for me, but have to ask how many, and what is the
criteria? I'd think anything opening a file or manipulating fs:
IORING_OP_ACCEPT, IORING_OP_CONNECT, IORING_OP_OPENAT[2],
IORING_OP_RENAMEAT, IORING_OP_UNLINKAT, IORING_OP_SHUTDOWN,
IORING_OP_FILES_UPDATE
+ coming mkdirat and others.
IORING_OP_CLOSE? IORING_OP_SEND IORING_OP_RECV?
What about?
IORING_OP_FSYNC, IORING_OP_SYNC_FILE_RANGE,
IORING_OP_FALLOCATE, IORING_OP_STATX,
IORING_OP_FADVISE, IORING_OP_MADVISE,
IORING_OP_EPOLL_CTL
Another question, io_uring may exercise asynchronous paths,
i.e. io_issue_sqe() returns before requests completes.
Shouldn't be the case for open/etc at the moment, but was that
considered?
This would be why audit needs to monitor a thread until it wraps up, to
wait for the result code. My understanding is that both sync and async
parts of an op would be monitored.
I don't see it happening, but would prefer to keep it open
async reimplementation in a distant future. Does audit sleep?
Some parts do, some parts don't depending on what they are interacting
with in the kernel. It can be made to not sleep if needed.
