Audit user entries are described by a .Vt au_user_ent , which stores the user's name in .Va au_name , events to always audit in .Va au_always , and events never to audit .Va au_never . .Pp The .Fn getauuserent function returns the next user found in the .Xr audit_user 5 database, or the first if the function has not yet been called. .Dv NULL will be returned if no further records are available. .Pp The .Fn getauusernam function looks up a user by name. .Dv NULL will be returned if no matching class can be found. .Pp The .Fn setauuser function resets the iterator through the .Xr audit_user 5 database, causing the next call to .Fn getauuserent to start again from the beginning of the file. .Pp The .Fn endauuser function closes the .Xr audit_user 5 database, if open. .Pp The .Fn au_user_mask function calculates a new session audit mask to be returned via .Fa mask_p for the user identified by .Fa username . If the user audit configuration is not found, the default system audit properties returned by .Xr getacflg 3 are used. The resulting mask may be set via a call to .Xr setaudit 2 or related variants. .Pp The .Fn getfauditflags function generates a new process audit state by combining the audit masks passed as parameters with the system audit masks. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr setaudit 2 , .Xr getacflg 3 , .Xr libbsm 3 , .Xr audit_user 5 .Sh HISTORY The OpenBSM implementation was created by McAfee Research, the security division of McAfee Inc., under contract to Apple Computer, Inc., in 2004. It was subsequently adopted by the TrustedBSD Project as the foundation for the OpenBSM distribution. .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit This software was created by .An Robert Watson , .An Wayne Salamon , and .An Suresh Krishnaswamy for McAfee Research, the security research division of McAfee, Inc., under contract to Apple Computer, Inc. .Pp The Basic Security Module (BSM) interface to audit records and audit event stream format were defined by Sun Microsystems. .Sh BUGS These routines cannot currently distinguish between an entry not being found and an error accessing the database. The implementation should be changed to return an error via .Va errno when .Dv NULL is returned.
