35.Sh NAME
36.Nm audit_submit
37.Nd "general purpose audit record submission"
38.Sh LIBRARY
39.Lb libbsm
40.Sh SYNOPSIS
41.In bsm/libbsm.h
42.Ft int
43.Fo audit_submit
44.Fa "short au_event" "au_id_t auid" "char status"
45.Fa "int reterr" "const char * restrict format" ...
46.Fc
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48The
49.Fn audit_submit
50function provides a generic programming interface for audit record submission.
51This audit record will contain a header, subject token, an optional text token,
52return token, and a trailer.
53The header will contain the event class specified by
54.Fa au_event .
55The subject token will be generated based on
56.Fa auid .
57The return token is dependent on the
58.Fa status
59and
60.Fa reterr
61arguments; unlike the argument to
62.Xr au_to_return ,
63.Fa reterr
64should be a local rather than BSM error number.
65Optionally, a text token will be created as a part of this record.
66.Pp
67Text token output is under the control of a
68.Fa format
69string that specifies how subsequent arguments (or arguments accessed via the
70variable-length argument facilities of
71.Xr stdarg 3 )
72are converted for output.
73If
74.Fa format
75is
76.Dv NULL ,
77then no text token is created in the audit record.
78.Pp
79It should be noted that
80.Fn audit_submit
81assumes that
82.Xr setaudit 2 ,
83or
84.Xr setaudit_addr 2
85has already been called.
86As a direct result, the terminal ID for the
87subject will be retrieved from the kernel via
88.Xr getaudit 2 ,
89or
90.Xr getaudit_addr 2 .

134.Sh RETURN VALUES
135If successful,
136.Nm
137will return zero.
138Otherwise a -1 is returned and the global variable
139.Va errno
140is set to indicate the error.
