AUDIT_SET_PID(3) Linux Audit API AUDIT_SET_PID(3)NAME
audit_set_pid - Set audit daemon process ID
SYNOPSIS
#include <libaudit.h>
int audit_set_pid (int fd, int pid);
DESCRIPTION
audit_set_pid tells the kernel what the pid is of the audit daemon. When the pid is set to 0, the kernel will log all events to syslog.
Otherwise it will try to send events to the netlink connection that has the same pid given by this function. If for some reason the process
goes away, the kernel will automatically set the value to 0 itself. Usually this function is called by the audit daemon and not an external
program.
RETURN VALUE
The return value is <= 0 on error, otherwise it is the netlink sequence id number. This function can have any error that sendto would
encounter.
SEE ALSO audit_open(3), auditd(8).

AUDIT_SET_FAILURE(3) Linux Audit API AUDIT_SET_FAILURE(3)NAME
audit_set_failure - Set audit failure flag
SYNOPSIS
#include <libaudit.h>
int audit_set_failure (int fd, int failure);
DESCRIPTION
audit_set_failure sets the action that the kernel will perform when the backlog limit is reached or when it encounters an error and cannot
proceed. Possible values are:
0 - AUDIT_FAIL_PRINTK [default]
Log the audit record using printk which will cause subsequent events to get written to syslog.
1 - AUDIT_FAIL_SILENT
Do nothing, report nothing, skip logging the record and continue.
2 - AUDIT_FAIL_PANIC
Call the panic function. This would be used to prevent use of the machine upon loss of audit events.
RETURN VALUE
The return value is <= 0 on error, otherwise it is the netlink sequence id number. This function can have any error that sendto would
encounter.
SEE ALSO audit_set_backlog(3), audit_open(3), auditd(8), auditctl(8).
