sat_read_header_info, sat_free_header_info - Portable interfaces to read
audit record headers
#include <sat.h>
int sat_read_header_info (FILE *in, struct sat_hdr_info int mask, int
file_major, int file_minor);
void sat_free_header_info (struct sat_hdr_info *header);
sat_read_header_info reads an audit record header into a convenient
struct for examining its contents (the disk format is neither convenient
nor obvious). Translation from older versions of audit files is handled
transparently by the library routines. The record header is read from
file descriptor in and processed into the struct pointed to by header.
The file_major, file_minor are the file version to translate from,
obtained from the file header using the sat_read_file_info(3C) call.
The sat_hdr_info structure pointed to by header includes the following
fields:
int sat_magic; /* sat header "magic number" */
int sat_rectype; /* what type of record follows */
int sat_outcome; /* fail/success, due to dac/mac check */
cap_value_t sat_cap; /* what capability affected the result */
int sat_sequence; /* sequence # for this rec (by type) */
int sat_errno; /* system call error number */
time_t sat_time; /* seconds since 1970 */
int sat_ticks; /* sub-second clock ticks (0-99) */
int sat_syscall; /* system call number */
int sat_subsyscall; /* system call "command" number */
long sat_host_id; /* host id */
uid_t sat_id; /* SAT user-id */
dev_t sat_tty; /* controlling tty, if present */
pid_t sat_ppid; /* parent process id */
pid_t sat_pid; /* process id of record's generator */
char *sat_pname; /* process name */
mac_label *sat_plabel; /* process label */
cap_t sat_pcap; /* capability set */
uid_t sat_euid; /* Effective user id */
uid_t sat_ruid; /* Real user id */
gid_t sat_egid; /* Effective group id */
gid_t sat_rgid; /* Real group id */
int sat_ngroups; /* number of multi-group entries */
gid_t *sat_groups; /* group list */
char *sat_cwd; /* current working directory */
char *sat_rootdir; /* current root directory */
int sat_recsize; /* bytes in the following record */
int sat_hdrsize; /* no. of bytes in disk image of header */

Due to the format that the record header is stored in on disk, several
fields in the file header require extra computation and memory. To allow
the user to select only the fields they are interested in, there is a
mask which specifies which fields to include. These are:
SHI_NONE Include none of the extra fields.
SHI_GROUPS Include the extended group list from the record
header.
SHI_PLABEL Include the process label from the record header.
SHI_CWD Include the current working directory from the record
header.
SHI_ROOTDIR Include the current root directory from the record
header.
SHI_PNAME Include the process name from the record header.
SHI_BUFFER Include the original disk image of the record header.
SHI_ALL Include everything.
The process label is only available if sat_mac_enabled is set in the file
header, otherwise this field will be NULL. The current root directory
(as changed by the chroot(2) command) may point to a null string. If
this is the case, '/' is intended. If a field is not requested in the
mask, the value in header will be NULL. To specify combinations of the
above masks, simply "or" them together, like so:
(SHI_GROUPS | SHI_CWD | SHI_PNAME)
Unlike the sat_read_file_info function, there is only one way to write
out a record header. That is to ask for the disk image using SHI_BUFFER
in the mask. When output is desired, use fwrite(3C) to write the
contents of sat_buffer to disk. The length of the data in sat_buffer is
in sat_hdrsize. Be aware that there is also the record data following
the record header, which must also be read and written to disk. The size
of the record body is found in the sat_recsize field. There are no
library routines to read or interpret record bodies.
sat_free_header_info is used to free any data that sat_read_header_info
allocated while constructing a sat_hdr_info struct. It does not free the
struct itself, only certain fields within the struct. To make sure the
struct isn't used afterwards, it is zeroed after all the fields are
freed.

sat_read_header_info returns SHI_OKAY on success or SHI_ERROR if any
errors were detected.
