Subject: [RFC][PATCH] audit: get inode pathname patch
Date: Wed, 06 Aug 2008 10:36:46 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1218033406.9023.7.camel@new-host-2.home> (raw)
We are interested in using auditing's context pathname information.
Is this the best way of accessing it?
Add support for accessing auditing's inode full pathname.
