AUDIT_GET_REPLY(3) Linux Audit API AUDIT_GET_REPLY(3)NAME
audit_get_reply - Get the audit system's reply
SYNOPSIS
#include <libaudit.h>
int audit_get_reply(int fd, struct audit_reply *rep, reply_t block, int peek);
DESCRIPTION
This function gets the next data packet sent on the audit netlink socket. This function is usually called after sending a command to the
audit system. fd should be an open file descriptor returned by audit_open. rep should be a data structure to put the reply in. block is of
type reply_t which is either: GET_REPLY_BLOCKING and GET_REPLY_NONBLOCKING. peek, if non-zero, gets the data without dequeueing it from the
netlink socket.
RETURN VALUE
This function returns -1 on error, 0 if error response received, and positive value on success.
SEE ALSO audit_open(3).

get_auditfail_action - Get failure_action tunable value
SYNOPSIS
#include <libaudit.h>
int get_auditfail_action (int *failmode);
DESCRIPTION
This function gets the failure_action tunable value stored in /etc/libaudit.conf. get_auditfail_action should be called after an audit_open
call returns an error to see what action the admin prefers.
The failure_action value found in /etc/libaudit.conf is copied into the failmode argument upon function return. This value should then be
used by the calling application to determine what action should be taken when the audit subsystem is unavailable.
RETURN VALUE
Upon success, get_auditfail_action returns a zero, and the failmode argument will hold the failure_action value. The possible values for
failure_action are: FAIL_IGNORE (0), FAIL_LOG (1), and FAIL_TERMINATE (2). Upon failure, get_auditfail_action returns a return code of one.
ERRORS
An error is returned if there is an error reading /etc/libaudit.conf or if the failure_action tunable is not found in the file.
EXAMPLES
/* Sample code */
auditfail_t failmode;
if ((fd = audit_open() ) < 0 ) {
fprintf (stderr, "Cannot open netlink audit socket");
/* Get the failure_action */
if ((rc = get_auditfail_action(&failmode)) == 0) {
if (failmode == FAIL_LOG)
fprintf (stderr, "Audit subsystem unavailable");
else if (failmode == FAIL_TERMINATE)
exit (1);
/* If failmode == FAIL_IGNORE, do nothing */
}
}
