Robert Watson bb97b41819 Vendor import of OpenBSM 1.0 alpha 11, with the following change history
notes since the last import:

OpenBSM 1.0 alpha 11

- Reclassify certain read/write operations as having no class rather than the
  fr/fw class; our default classes audit intent (open) not operations (read,
  write).
- Introduce AUE_SYSCTL_WRITE event so that BSD/Darwin systems can audit reads
  and writes of sysctls as separate events.  Add additional kernel
  environment and jail events for FreeBSD.
- Break AUDIT_TRIGGER_OPEN_NEW into two events, AUDIT_TRIGGER_ROTATE_USER
  (issued by the user audit(8) tool) and AUDIT_TRIGGER_ROTATE_KERNEL (issued
  by the kernel audit implementation) so that they can be distinguished.
- Disable rate limiting of rotate requests; as the kernel doesn't retransmit
  a dropped request, the log file will otherwise grow indefinitely if the
  trigger is dropped.
- Improve auditd debugging output.
- Fix a number of threading related bugs in audit_control file reading
  routines.
- Add APIs au_poltostr() and au_strtopol() to convert between text
  representations of audit_control policy flags and the flags passed to
  auditon(A_SETPOLICY) and retrieved from auditon(A_GETPOLICY).
- Add API getacpol() to return the 'policy:' entry from audit_control, an
  extension to the Solaris file format to allow specification of policy
  persistent flags.
- Update audump to print the audit_control policy field.
- Update auditd to read the audit_control policy field and set the kernel
  policy to match it when configuring/reconfiguring.  Remove the -s and -h
  arguments as these policies are now set via the configuration file.  If a
  policy line is not found in the configuration file, continue with the
  current default of setting AUDIT_CNT.
- Fix bugs in the parsing of large execve(2) arguments and environmental
  variable tokens; increase maximum parsed argument and variable count.
- configure now detects strlcat(), used by policy-related functions.
- Reference token and record sample files added to test tree.

- Teach praudit how to general XML format BSM streams.
- Teach libbsm about any additional 64-bit token types that are present
in more recent Solaris versions.
- Build a regression test suite for libbsm that generates each token
type and then compares the results with known good data. Make sure to
test that things work properly with respect to endianness of the local
platform.
- Document contents of libbsm "public" data structures in libbsm man pages.
- The audit.log.5 man page is incomplete, as it does not describe all
token types.
- With the move to autoconf/automake, man page symlinks are no longer
installed. This needs to be fixed.
- It might be desirable to be able to provide EOPNOTSUPP system call stubs
on systems that don't have the necessary audit system calls; that would
allow the full libbsm and tool set to build, just not run.
- Teach praudit how to begin printing at any point in a token stream, not
just at the beginning of a record. This will make it easier to use
praudit in test suites processing single-token files without header and
trailer context.
- Teach auditd how to notify a script when it is done with trail files so
that the script can archive them, compress them, delete them, whatever.
It should walk any trail files found at startup also, assuming it
successfully registers.
- Put hostname in trail file name.
