audit: fix mq_open and mq_unlink to add the MQ root as a hidden parent audit_names record
The old audit PATH records for mq_open looked like this: type=PATH msg=audit(1366282323.982:869): item=1 name=(null) inode=6777 dev=00:0c mode=041777 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 type=PATH msg=audit(1366282323.982:869): item=0 name="test_mq" inode=26732 dev=00:0c mode=0100700 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=staff_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 ...with the audit related changes that went into 3.7, they now look like this: type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=2 name=(null) inode=66655 dev=00:0c mode=0100700 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=staff_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=1 name=(null) inode=6926 dev=00:0c mode=041777 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s15:c0.c1023 type=PATH msg=audit(1366282236.776:3606): item=0 name="test_mq" Both of these look wrong to me. As Steve Grubb pointed out: "What we need is 1 PATH record that identifies the MQ. The other PATH records probably should not be there." Fix it to record the mq root as a parent, and flag it such that it should be hidden from view when the names are logged, since the root of the mq filesystem isn't terribly interesting. With this change, we get a single PATH record that looks more like this: type=PATH msg=audit(1368021604.836:484): item=0 name="test_mq" inode=16914 dev=00:0c mode=0100644 ouid=0 ogid=0 rdev=00:00 obj=unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmpfs_t:s0 In order to do this, a new audit_inode_parent_hidden() function is added. If we do it this way, then we avoid having the existing callers of audit_inode needing to do any sort of flag conversion if auditing is inactive.
