From 45b578fe4c3cade6f4ca1fc934ce199afd857edc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Guy Briggs Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2018 11:18:22 -0500 Subject: audit: link denied should not directly generate PATH record Audit link denied events generate duplicate PATH records which disagree in different ways from symlink and hardlink denials. audit_log_link_denied() should not directly generate PATH records.
