NAME

getaudproc() - get the audit process ﬂag for the calling process

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/audit.h>

int getaudproc(void);

DESCRIPTION

getaudproc() returns the audit process ﬂag for the calling process. The audit process ﬂag

(u_audproc ) determines whether the process run by a given user should be audited. The process is

audited if the returned ﬂag is 1. If the returned ﬂag is 0, the process is not audited. This call is res-

tricted to users with the SELFAUDIT privilege.

Security Restrictions

Some or all of the actions associated with this system call require the

SELFAUDIT privilege. Processes

owned by the superuser have this privilege. Processes owned by other users may have this privilege,

depending on system conﬁguration. See privileges (5) for more information about privileged access on sys-

tems that support ﬁne-grained privileges.

RETURN VALUE

Upon successful completion, the audit process ﬂag is returned; otherwise, a

-1 is returned and

errno is

set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

getaudproc() fails if the following is true:

[EPERM] The caller does not have the

SELFAUDIT privilege.
