"One small audit fix that you can hopefully merge before v5.8 is
released. Unfortunately it is a revert of a patch that went in during
the v5.7 window and we just recently started to see some bug reports
relating to that commit.
We are working on a proper fix, but I'm not yet clear on when that
will be ready and we need to fix the v5.7 kernels anyway, so in the
interest of time a revert seemed like the best solution right now"

revert: 1320a4052e ("audit: trigger accompanying records when no rules present")
Unfortunately the commit listed in the subject line above failed
to ensure that the task's audit_context was properly initialized/set
before enabling the "accompanying records". Depending on the
situation, the resulting audit_context could have invalid values in
some of it's fields which could cause a kernel panic/oops when the
task/syscall exists and the audit records are generated.
We will revisit the original patch, with the necessary fixes, in a
future kernel but right now we just want to fix the kernel panic
with the least amount of added risk.

In environments where the preservation of audit events and predictable
usage of system memory are prioritized, admins may use a combination of
--backlog_wait_time and -b options at the risk of degraded performance
resulting from backlog waiting. In some cases, this risk may be
preferred to lost events or unbounded memory usage. Ideally, this risk
can be mitigated by making adjustments when backlog waiting is detected.
However, detection can be difficult using the currently available
metrics. For example, an admin attempting to debug degraded performance
may falsely believe a full backlog indicates backlog waiting. It may
turn out the backlog frequently fills up but drains quickly.
To make it easier to reliably track degraded performance to backlog
waiting, this patch makes the following changes:
Add a new field backlog_wait_time_total to the audit status reply.
Initialize this field to zero. Add to this field the total time spent
by the current task on scheduled timeouts while the backlog limit is
exceeded. Reset field to zero upon request via AUDIT_SET.

audit_log_string() was inteded to be an internal audit function and
since there are only two internal uses, remove them. Purge all external
uses of it by restructuring code to use an existing audit_log_format()
or using audit_log_format().

Commit 7561252892 ("audit: always check the netlink payload length
in audit_receive_msg()") fixed a number of missing message length
checks, but forgot to check the length of userspace generated audit
records. The good news is that you need CAP_AUDIT_WRITE to submit
userspace audit records, which is generally only given to trusted
processes, so the impact should be limited.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"We've got two audit patches for the v5.7 merge window with a stellar
14 lines changed between the two patches. The patch descriptions are
far more lengthy than the patches themselves, which is a very good
thing for patches this size IMHO. The patches pass our test suites and
a quick summary is below:
- Stop logging inode information when updating an audit file watch.
Since we are not changing the inode, or the fact that we are
watching the associated file, the inode information is just noise
that we can do without.
- Fix a problem where mandatory audit records were missing their
accompanying audit records (e.g. SYSCALL records were missing).
The missing records often meant that we didn't have the necessary
context to understand what was going on when the event occurred"
* tag 'audit-pr-20200330' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit:
audit: trigger accompanying records when no rules present
audit: CONFIG_CHANGE don't log internal bookkeeping as an event
When there are no audit rules registered, mandatory records (config,
etc.) are missing their accompanying records (syscall, proctitle, etc.).
This is due to audit context dummy set on syscall entry based on absence
of rules that signals that no other records are to be printed.
Clear the dummy bit if any record is generated.
The proctitle context and dummy checks are pointless since the
proctitle record will not be printed if no syscall records are printed.

When a process signals the audit daemon (shutdown, rotate, resume,
reconfig) but syscall auditing is not enabled, we still want to know the
identity of the process sending the signal to the audit daemon.
Move audit_signal_info() out of syscall auditing to general auditing but
create a new function audit_signal_info_syscall() to take care of the
syscall dependent parts for when syscall auditing is enabled.

Also, audit_log_name() (and supporting inode and fcaps functions) should

normalized since it is only used by syscall auditing.

Don't fetch fcaps when umount2 is called to avoid a process hang while
it waits for the missing resource to (possibly never) re-appear.
Note the comment above user_path_mountpoint_at():
* A umount is a special case for path walking. We're not actually interested
* in the inode in this situation, and ESTALE errors can be a problem. We
* simply want track down the dentry and vfsmount attached at the mountpoint
* and avoid revalidating the last component.
This can happen on ceph, cifs, 9p, lustre, fuse (gluster) or NFS.
