AUDIT_SETLOGINUID(3) Linux Audit API AUDIT_SETLOGINUID(3)
audit_setloginuid - Set a program's loginuid value
#include <libaudit.h>
int audit_setloginuid(uid_t uid);
This function sets the task attribute loginuid with the value of
uid. The loginuid value may only be set by programs with the
CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL capability. This normally means the root
account.
The loginuid value is part of the task structure and is inherited
by child processes. It is used to track what account a user gained
system access with. All system entry point programs should set
this value right before changing to the uid of the user granted
access so that audit events are properly attributed to the that
user.
This function returns 0 on success and non-zero otherwise.
audit_getloginuid(3), pam_loginuid(8).
