NAME

       ausearch_add_regex - use regular expression search rule

SYNOPSIS

       #include <auparse.h>

       int ausearch_add_regex(auparse_state_t *au, const char *expr);

DESCRIPTION

       ausearch_add_regex  adds  one search condition based on regular expressions to the audit search API. The search conditions can then be used
       to scan logs, files, or buffers for something of interest. You may not use this in combination with any other search expression. The  regu-
       lar expression follows the posix regular expression conventions. The search results are at the record level and not the field.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns -1 if an error occurs; otherwise, 0 for success.

SEE ALSO
