30.Dt GETAUDIT 2
31.Os
32.Sh NAME
33.Nm getaudit ,
34.Nm getaudit_addr
35.Nd "retrieve audit session state"
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.In bsm/audit.h
38.Ft int
39.Fn getaudit "auditinfo_t *auditinfo"
40.Ft int
41.Fn getaudit_addr "auditinfo_addr_t *auditinfo_addr" "u_int length"
42.Sh DESCRIPTION
43The
44.Fn getaudit
45system call
46retrieves the active audit session state for the current process via the
47.Vt auditinfo_t
48pointed to by
49.Fa auditinfo .
50The
51.Fn getaudit_addr
52system call
53retrieves extended state via
54.Fa auditinfo_addr
55and
56.Fa length .
57.Pp
58The
59.Fa auditinfo_t
60data structure is defined as follows:
61.Bd -literal -offset indent
62struct auditinfo {
63	au_id_t        ai_auid;         /* Audit user ID */
64	au_mask_t      ai_mask;         /* Audit masks */
65	au_tid_t       ai_termid;       /* Terminal ID */
66	au_asid_t      ai_asid;         /* Audit session ID */
67};
68typedef struct auditinfo        auditinfo_t;
69.Ed
70.Pp
71The
72.Fa ai_auid
73variable contains the audit identifier which is recorded in the audit log for
74each event the process caused.
75.Pp
76The
77.Fa au_mask_t
78data structure defines the bit mask for auditing successful and failed events
79out of the predefined list of event classes.
80It is defined as follows:
81.Bd -literal -offset indent
82struct au_mask {
83	unsigned int    am_success;     /* success bits */
84	unsigned int    am_failure;     /* failure bits */
85};
86typedef struct au_mask  au_mask_t;
87.Ed
88.Pp
89The
90.Fa au_termid_t
91data structure defines the Terminal ID recorded with every event caused by the
92process.
93It is defined as follows:
94.Bd -literal -offset indent
95struct au_tid {
96	dev_t           port;
97	u_int32_t       machine;
98};
99typedef struct au_tid   au_tid_t;
100.Ed
101.Pp
102The
103.Fa ai_asid
104variable contains the audit session ID which is recorded with every event
105caused by the process.
106.Pp
107The
108.Fn getaudit_addr
109system call
110uses the expanded
111.Fa auditinfo_addr_t
112data structure and supports Terminal IDs with larger addresses
113such as those used in IP version 6.
114It is defined as follows:
115.Bd -literal -offset indent
116struct auditinfo_addr {
117	au_id_t         ai_auid;        /* Audit user ID. */
118	au_mask_t       ai_mask;        /* Audit masks. */
119	au_tid_addr_t   ai_termid;      /* Terminal ID. */
120	au_asid_t       ai_asid;        /* Audit session ID. */
121};
122typedef struct auditinfo_addr   auditinfo_addr_t;
123.Ed
124.Pp
125The
126.Fa au_tid_addr_t
127data structure which includes a larger address storage field and an additional
128field with the type of address stored:
129.Bd -literal -offset indent
130struct au_tid_addr {
131	dev_t           at_port;
132	u_int32_t       at_type;
133	u_int32_t       at_addr[4];
134};
135typedef struct au_tid_addr      au_tid_addr_t;
136.Ed
137.Pp
138These system calls require an appropriate privilege to complete.
139.Sh RETURN VALUES
140.Rv -std getaudit getaudit_addr
141.Sh ERRORS
142The
143.Fn getaudit
144function will fail if:
145.Bl -tag -width Er
146.It Bq Er EFAULT
147A failure occurred while data transferred to or from
148the kernel failed.
149.It Bq Er EINVAL
150Illegal argument was passed by a system call.
151.It Bq Er EPERM
152The process does not have sufficient permission to complete
153the operation.
154.It Bq Er EOVERFLOW
155The
156.Fa length
157argument indicates an overflow condition will occur.
158.It Bq Er E2BIG
159The address is too big and, therefore,
160.Fn getaudit_addr
161should be used instead.
