kauditd_retry_skb(9)

🎀 kauditd_retry_skb(9) 🎀

💅 NAME 💅

kauditd_retry_skb — queue an audit record, attempt to send again to auditd

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void kauditd_retry_skb (struct sk_buff *skb , int error );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• skb — the audit record, like the actual message we're trying to slide into auditd's DMs 📬
• error — error code, but bestie it's literally unused, so just ignore it 😴

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so picture this: we still have a connected auditd, which is good — it's not like a full-on crisis. But for some reason we're having problems sending it audit records. It's giving "connection is there but the vibes are off." 😭

It's not as serious as kauditd_hold_skb — that one's like the emergency alarm — but we still gotta do something.

So we take the given record, queue it up, and attempt to resend it. Lowkey a "try again" moment, no cap. 🔁
