Subject: [PATCH] fix audit_init failure path
Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2006 22:40:05 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060307034005.GA8285@zk3.dec.com> (raw)
Make audit_init() failure path handle situations where the audit_panic()
action is not AUDIT_FAIL_PANIC (default is AUDIT_FAIL_PRINTK). Other uses
of audit_sock are not reached unless audit's netlink message handler is
properly registered. Bug noticed by Peter Staubach.
