NAME

getauclassent, getauclassnam, setauclass, endauclass, getauclassnam_r, getauclassent_r- get audit_class entry

SYNOPSIS

cc [flags...] file ... -lbsm -lsocket -lnsl -lintl [library...]


#include <sys/param.h>
#include <bsm/libbsm.h>

struct au_class_ent * getauclassnam( const char * name);
struct au_class_ent * getauclassnam_r( au_class_ent_t * class_int, const char * name);
struct au_class_ent * getauclassent( void);
struct au_class_ent * getauclassent_r( au_class_ent_t * class_int);
void setauclass( void);
void endauclass( void);

DESCRIPTION

getauclassent() and getauclassnam() each return an audit_class entry.

getauclassnam() searches for an audit_class entry with a given class name name .

getauclassent() enumerates audit_class entries: successive calls to getauclassent() will return either successive audit_class entries or NULL .

setauclass() ``rewinds'' to the beginning of the enumeration of audit_class entries. Calls to getauclassnam() may leave the enumeration in an indeterminate state, so setauclass() should be called before the first getauclassent() .

endauclass() may be called to indicate that audit_class processing is complete; the system may then close any open audit_class file, deallocate storage, and so forth.

getauclassent_r() and getauclassnam_r() both return a pointer to an audit_class entry as do their similarly named counterparts. They each take an additional argument, a pointer to pre-allocated space for an au_class_ent_t , which is returned if the call is successful. To assure there is enough space for the information returned, the applications programmer should be sure to allocate AU_CLASS_NAME_MAX and AU_CLASS_DESC_MAX bytes for the ac_name and ac_desc elements of the au_class_ent_t data structure.

The internal representation of an audit_user entry is an au_class_ent structure defined in <bsm/libbsm.h> with the following members:

char        *ac_name;au_class_t     ac_class;char          *ac_desc;

RETURN VALUES

getauclassnam() and getauclassnam_r() return a pointer to a struct au_class_ent if they successfully locate the requested entry; otherwise they return NULL .

getauclassent() and getauclassent_r() return a pointer to a struct au_class_ent if they successfully enumerate an entry; otherwise they return NULL , indicating the end of the enumeration.

ATTRIBUTES

See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

ATTRIBUTE TYPE	ATTRIBUTE VALUE
MT-Level	MT-Safe with exceptions.

All of the functions described in this man-page are MT-Safe except getauclassent() and getauclassnam() . The two functions, getauclassent_r() and getauclassnam_r() have the same functionality as the unsafe functions, but have a slightly different function call interface in order to make them MT-Safe.

SUMMARY OF TRUSTED SOLARIS CHANGES

The functionality described in this man page is available only if auditing has been enabled. By default, auditing is enabled in the Trusted Solaris environment.
