Vendor branch import of TrustedBSD OpenBSM 1.0 alpha 6:
- Use AU_TO_WRITE and AU_NO_TO_WRITE for the 'keep' argument to au_close();
previously we used hard-coded 0 and 1 values.
- Add man page for au_open(), au_write(), au_close(), and
au_close_buffer().
- Support a more complete range of data types for the arbitrary data token:
add AUR_CHAR (alias to AUR_BYTE), remove AUR_LONG, add AUR_INT32 (alias
to AUR_INT), add AUR_INT64.
- Add au_close_token(), which allows writing a single token_t to a memory
buffer. Not likely to be used much by applications, but useful for
writing test tools.
- Modify au_to_file() so that it accepts a timeval in user space, not just
kernel -- this is not a Solaris BSM API so can be modified without
causing compatibility issues.
- Define a new API, au_to_header32_tm(), which adds a struct timeval
argument to the ordinary au_to_header32(), which is now implemented by
wrapping au_to_header32_tm() and calling gettimeofday(). #ifndef KERNEL
the APIs that invoke gettimeofday(), rather than having a variable
definition. Don't try to retrieve time zone information using
gettimeofday(), as it's not needed, and introduces possible failure
modes.
- Don't perform byte order transformations on the addr/machine fields of
the terminal ID that appears in the process32/subject32 tokens. These
are assumed to be IP addresses, and as such, to be in network byte
order.
- Universally, APIs now assume that IP addresses and ports are provided
in network byte order. APIs now generally provide these types in
network byte order when decoding.
- Beginnings of an OpenBSM test framework can now be found in openbsm/test.
This code is not built or installed by default.
- auditd now assigns more appropriate syslog levels to its debugging and
error information.
- Support for audit filters introduced: audit filters are dynamically
loaded shared objects that run in the context of a new daemon,
auditfilterd. The daemon reads from an audit pipe and feeds both BSM and
parsed versions of records to shared objects using a module API. This
will provide a framework for the writing of intrusion detection services.
- New utility API, audit_submit(), added to capture common elements of audit
record submission for many applications.

Vendor branch import of TrustedBSD OpenBSM 1.0 alpha 5:
- Update install notes to indicate /etc files are to be installed manually.
- On systems without LOG_SECURITY, use LOG_AUTH.
- Convert to autoconf/automake in order to move to a more portable (not
BSD-specific) build infrastructure, and more easy conditional building of
components. Currently, the primary feature loss is that automake does
not have native support for manual symlinks. This will be addressed in a
future OpenBSM release.
- Add compat/queue.h, to be used on systems dated BSD queue macro libraries
(as found on Linux).
- Rename CHANGELOG to HISTORY, as our change log doesn't follow some of the
existing conventions for a CHANGELOG.
- Some private data structures moved from audit.h to audit_internal.h to
prevent inappropriate use by applications and name space pollution.
- Improved detection and use of endian macros using autoconf.
- Avoid non-portable use of struct in6_addr, which is largely opaque.
- Avoid leaking BSD kernel socket related token code to user space in
bsm_token.c.
- Teach System V IPC calls to look for Linux naming variations for certain
struct ipc_perm fields.
- Test for audit system calls, and if not present, don't build
bsm_wrappers.c, bsm_notify.c, audit(8), and auditd(8), which rely on
those system calls.
- au_close() is not implemented on systems that don't have audit system
calls, but au_close_buffer() is.
- Work around missing BSDisms in bsm_wrapper.c.
- Fix nested includes so including libbsm.h in an application on Linux
picks up the necessary definitions.
