Subject: [PATCH] make it match explicitly when use option '-a', '-A' and '-d' to specify "list,action"
Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2008 14:54:52 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48803E3C.4060209@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

Hello Steve,

I know "list" and "action" can be changed, this is convenient.
But wildcard match maybe make user confused, for example "auditctl -a noentry,noalways"
will add a rule same with "auditctl -a entry,always".

furthermore, comma must be used to seperate list and action according to manpage:
   "Please note the comma separating the two values. Omitting it will cause errors."
but now, "auditctl -a entryalways" will add the same rule.

So we'd better make it match explicitly. This is a patch for latest audit-1.7.4.
