commit 33e2208acfc1
audit: vfs: fix audit_inode call in O_CREAT case of do_last
fix a regression in auditing of open(..., O_CREAT) syscalls but
import a new problem which lead the records of write operation
confusion.
This error can be reproduced by these steps:
touch /etc/test
echo "-w /etc/test" >>/etc/audit/audit.rules
/etc/init.d/auditd restart
echo "abc" >> /etc/test
audit_name records are:
type=PATH msg=audit(1409764556.196:67): item=0 name="/etc/" inode=5097 dev=00:01 mode=040755 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=PARENT
type=PATH msg=audit(1409764556.196:67): item=1 name=(null) inode=23161 dev=00:01 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=NORMAL
type=PATH msg=audit(1409764556.196:67): item=2 name=(null) inode=23161 dev=00:01 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=NORMAL
but if we revert commit 33e2208acfc1, records are correct:
type=PATH msg=audit(1409763058.192:219): item=0 name="/etc/test" inode=1275 dev=00:01 mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 nametype=NORMAL
We shouldn't leave audit_inode(.., LOOKUP_PARENT) in O_CREAT case
of do_last() because this branch don't really know if vfs need to
create a new file. There is no need to do vfs_create() if we open
an existing file with O_CREAT flag and write to it. But this
audit_inode() in O_CREAT case will record a msg as we create a new
file and confuse the records of write.
This patch moves the audit for create operation to where a file
really need to be created, the O_CREAT case in lookup_open().
We have to add the pointer of struct filename as a parameter of
lookup_open(). By doing this, the records of both create and write
are correct.
