Is there any reason not to put many rules on one line in
audit.rules?
Ex:
-a exit, always -S creat -S open -S truncate -S truncate64 -S ftruncate -S
ftruncate64 -S unlink -S link -S symlink -S rename -S mkdir -S rmdir -F
devmajor=253 -F devminor=1
Yes, that is preferred. The total overhead of storing this rule in
the kernel is reduced, and it's more efficient for the kernel
filtering code to iterate over.
You might have missed it, but this is exactly what Steve Grubb
recommended to you on 3/28:
