Subject: [PATCH] selftests: netfilter: fix nft_audit.sh auditd detection
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 03:56:32 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911035632.491163-1-jinli@lanxincomputing.com> (raw)

The auditd PID file location changed from /var/run/auditd.pid to
/run/audit/auditd.pid in newer audit-userspace versions, causing the
skip check in nft_audit.sh to fail silently.

Replace the PID file check with pgrep, which works regardless of
where the PID file is located.
