PATCH 4/4 Add the checking of key field for a watch or syscall given

Hello Steve,

When field is AUDIT_FILTERKEY, it should need a watch or syscall given prior to it. So I add checking and error message "-19" to realize it.

Do you agree with me? This is the patches for latest code in audit SVN project.

Yes, but where does permadded get set?

"permadded" set in "lib/libaudit.c" as follows:
int audit_permadded hidden = 0;
int audit_archadded hidden = 0;
int audit_syscalladded hidden = 0

It declares in "src/auditctl.c" as follows:
extern int audit_permadded;

"permadded" set in "lib/libaudit.c" as follows:
 int audit_permadded hidden = 0;
 int audit_archadded hidden = 0;
 int audit_syscalladded hidden = 0

Right, but I don't see where it gets set to a 1.

Thank you for your suggestion.
I found the audit_permadded is set to 1 in audit_setup_perms() and setopt() after the AUDIT_PERM field. But I think it is not enough.

When the watch is added and AUDIT_PERM is not added, the perm r,w,x,a should be added by kernel default. So I think the audit_permadded should be set to 1 after a watch added.
I make a new patch for it. The "key" patch and new patch should use together.

Subject: [PATCH] When the watch is set, the audit_permadded should be set to 1
