Re: [PATCH v6 3/3] fanotify,audit: Allow audit to use the full permission event response

From: Steve Grubb
Date: Wed Jan 18 2023 - 13:35:48 EST


Hello Richard,

I built a new kernel and tested this with old and new user space. It is
working as advertised. The only thing I'm wondering about is why we have 3F
as the default value when no additional info was sent? Would it be better to
just make it 0? Btw, the change to %X makes life easier. Thx.

-Steve
