Re: Filtering Connect syscalls for af_inet only
I did some digging and now I understand the different size variations of
sockaddr_storage. I guess I can just filter on a2!=6e then.
And we'd have to keep an eye out for x86 systems. I understand that x86_64
does not use socketcall() but, do you know if multiarch support somehow
allows 32bit apps on x86_64 to use / translate these calls?
Thanks again!

I'm not sure, I'm not overly familiar with the auditd/auditctl
filtering capabilities. There are several people on this list that
are far more knowledgeable about that than me.

The idea behind the sockaddr_storage struct was to create a structure
that could be used to represent any address family that the system
supports. I don't believe there is a standard size across OSes due to
different level of support, padding, etc; in other words, it's
probably best not to rely on a specific size of sockaddr_storage.
