lsm: Use a compressed IPv6 string format in audit events
Currently the audit subsystem prints uncompressed IPv6 addresses which not only differs from common usage but also results in ridiculously large audit strings which is not a good thing. This patch fixes this by simply converting audit to always print compressed IPv6 addresses. Old message example: audit(1253576792.161:30): avc: denied { ingress } for saddr=0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001 src=5000 daddr=0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0001 dest=35502 netif=lo scontext=system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s15:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:lo_netif_t:s0-s15:c0.c1023 tclass=netif New message example: audit(1253576792.161:30): avc: denied { ingress } for saddr=::1 src=5000 daddr=::1 dest=35502 netif=lo scontext=system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s15:c0.c1023 tcontext=system_u:object_r:lo_netif_t:s0-s15:c0.c1023 tclass=netif Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
