It was changed at Paul's request in this v3 thread: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2018-July/msg00087.html And listed in the examples and changelog to this v4 patchset: https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2018-July/msg00178.html It is also listed in this userspace patchset update v4 (which should also have had a changelog added to it, note to self...): https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2018-July/msg00189.html I realize it is hard to keep up with all the detail changes in these patchsets... > CONTAINER_ID audit container identifier creation event > CONTAINER audit container identifier aux record to an event > > Or vice versa. Don't mix up creation of the identifier with operations. Exactly what I'm trying to avoid... Worded another way: "Don't mix up the creation operation with routine reporting of the identifier in events." Steve, can you and Paul discuss and agree on what they should be called? I don't have a horse in this race, but I need to record the result of that run. ;-) > -Steve - RGB -- Richard Guy Briggs Sr. S/W Engineer, Kernel Security, Base Operating Systems Remote, Ottawa, Red Hat Canada IRC: rgb, SunRaycer Voice: +1.647.777.2635, Internal: (81) 32635
