But that make is even more relevant. > So one event instance can have a list of strings recorded? Yes, it is a list very similar to a normal trace. But it is more generic. For example ino= is for filesystems that have inode, but for a violation that send a signal that make no sense at all. Network addresses is in many cases not applicable. laddr= is only exist for for IP. So if you just print them it will look like: avc: denied { find } for interface=vendor.qti.hardware.perf::IPerf sid=u:r:permissioncontroller_app:s0:c230,c256,c512,c768 pid=9164 scontext=u:r:permissioncontroller_app:s0:c230,c256,c512,c768 tcontext=u:object_r:vendor_hal_perf_hwservice:s0 tclass=hwservice_manager permissive=0 avc: denied { execute } for pid=13914 comm="ScionFrontendAp" path="/data/user_de/0/com.google.android.gms/app_chimera/m/00000002/oat/arm64/DynamiteLoader.odex" dev="sda77" ino=204967 scontext=u:r:platform_app:s0:c512,c768 tcontext=u:object_r:privapp_data_file:s0:c512,c768 tclass=file permissive=0 ppid=788 pcomm="main" pgid=13914 pgcomm="on.updatecenter" It omit the fields that are not used. Some parts are common some are not. So a correct format specification for trace will be problematic if there is no "optional" field indicator. > >>> >>>> + ), >>>> + >>>> + TP_fast_assign( >>>> + __entry->requested = requested; >>>> + __entry->denied = denied; >>>> + __entry->audited = audited; >>>> + __entry->result = result; >>>> + memcpy(__entry->msg, msg, 255); >>> Not to mention, the above is a bug.
