[PATCH ghak10 v8 1/2] timekeeping: Audit clock adjustments

From: Ondrej Mosnacek
Date: Wed Apr 10 2019 - 05:14:31 EST


Emit an audit record whenever the system clock is changed (i.e. shifted
by a non-zero offset) by a syscall from userspace. The syscalls than can
(at the time of writing) trigger such record are:
- settimeofday(2), stime(2), clock_settime(2) -- via
do_settimeofday64()
- adjtimex(2), clock_adjtime(2) -- via do_adjtimex()

The new records have type AUDIT_TIME_INJOFFSET and contain the following
fields:
- sec -- the 'seconds' part of the offset
- nsec -- the 'nanoseconds' part of the offset

Example record (time was shifted backwards by ~15.875 seconds):

type=TIME_INJOFFSET msg=audit(1530616049.652:13): sec=-16 nsec=124887145

The records of this type will be associated with the corresponding
syscall records.
