Subject: [PATCH v2] audit: add missing syscalls to PERM class tables
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 11:14:36 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260612141436.3137694-1-rrobaina@redhat.com> (raw)
Add missing file metadata syscalls to the audit PERM class tables,
addressing gaps where certain file operations were not properly
classified for audit rule matching.
Changes:
- audit_change_attr.h: Add file_setattr
- audit_read.h: Add quotactl_fd, file_getattr, stat, stat64, lstat,
lstat64, fstat, fstat64, newfstatat, fstatat64, and statx
- audit_write.h: Add quotactl_fd
Architecture-specific and conditionally-compiled syscalls are guarded
with #ifdef.

Changes in v2:
- Added stat64 family syscalls (stat64, lstat64, fstat64, fstatat64) to
audit_read.h for 32-bit architecture support.
- Dropped timestamp-related syscalls (utime, utimes, utimensat, etc.)
due to potential audit log volume increase impact. Those will be
addressed in a separate patch after closer investigation.
