30.Dt AUDIT_SUBMIT 3
31.Os
32.Sh NAME
33.Nm audit_submit
34.Nd "general purpose audit record submission"
35.Sh LIBRARY
36.Lb libbsm
37.Sh SYNOPSIS
38.In bsm/libbsm.h
39.Ft int
40.Fo audit_submit
41.Fa "short au_event" "au_id_t auid" "char status"
42.Fa "int reterr" "const char * restrict format" ...
43.Fc
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45The
46.Fn audit_submit
47function provides a generic programming interface for audit record submission.
48This audit record will contain a header, subject token, an optional text token,
49return token, and a trailer.
50The header will contain the event class specified by
51.Fa au_event .
52The subject token will be generated based on
53.Fa auid .
54The return token is dependent on the
55.Fa status
56and
57.Fa reterr
58arguments; unlike the argument to
59.Xr au_to_return ,
60.Fa reterr
61should be a local rather than BSM error number.
62Optionally, a text token will be created as a part of this record.
63.Pp
64Text token output is under the control of a
65.Fa format
66string that specifies how subsequent arguments (or arguments accessed via the
67variable-length argument facilities of
68.Xr stdarg 3 )
69are converted for output.
70If
71.Fa format
72is
73.Dv NULL ,
74then no text token is created in the audit record.
75.Pp
76It should be noted that
77.Fn audit_submit
78assumes that
79.Xr setaudit 2 ,
80or
81.Xr setaudit_addr 2
82has already been called.
83As a direct result, the terminal ID for the
84subject will be retrieved from the kernel via
85.Xr getaudit 2 ,
86or
87.Xr getaudit_addr 2 .
88.Sh RETURN VALUES
89If successful,
90.Nm
91will return zero.
92Otherwise a -1 is returned and the global variable
93.Va errno
94is set to indicate the error.
