Subject: [PATCH v7 2/2] audit: include source and destination ports to NETFILTER_PKT
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 09:36:17 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0fb9e8efdc66c2bbd3d9b81e808c58407f7b4b68.1763122537.git.rrobaina@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1763122537.git.rrobaina@redhat.com>
NETFILTER_PKT records show both source and destination
addresses, in addition to the associated networking protocol.
However, it lacks the ports information, which is often
valuable for troubleshooting.
This patch adds both source and destination port numbers,
'sport' and 'dport' respectively, to TCP, UDP, UDP-Lite and
SCTP-related NETFILTER_PKT records.
