Hi Linus,
After he sent the initial audit pull request for 3.18, Eric asked me to take
over the management of the audit tree, hence this pull request to fix a couple
of problems with audit. As you can see below, the changes are minimal: adding
some whitespace to a string so userspace parses it correctly, and fixing a
problem with audit's usage of fsnotify that was causing audit watch rules to
be lost. Neither of these patches were very controversial on the mailing
lists and they fix real problems, getting them into 3.18 would be a good
thing.
As of about ten minutes ago, the audit tree applied cleanly on top of your
tree.
Thanks,
-Paul
