Subject[PATCH ghak81 RFC V2 0/5] audit: group task params
Date
Group the audit parameters for each task into one structure.
In particular, remove the loginuid and sessionid values and the audit
context pointer from the task structure, replacing them with an audit
task information structure to contain them. Use access functions to
access audit values.

Note: Use static allocation of the audit task information structure
initially. Dynamic allocation was considered and attempted, but isn't
ready yet. Static allocation has the limitation that future audit task
information structure changes would cause a visible change to the rest
of the kernel, whereas dynamic allocation would mostly hide any future
changes.

The first four access normalization patches could stand alone.

Passes audit-testsuite.

Changelog:
v2
- p2/5: add audit header to init/init_task.c to quiet kbuildbot
- audit_signal_info(): fetch loginuid once
- remove task_struct from audit_context() param list
- remove extra task_struct local vars
- do nothing on request to set audit context when audit is disabled

Richard Guy Briggs (5):
audit: normalize loginuid read access
audit: convert sessionid unset to a macro
audit: use inline function to get audit context
audit: use inline function to set audit context
audit: collect audit task parameters
