DESCRIPTION

15       audit_request_signal_info  requests  that  the  kernel send information
16       about the sender of a signal to  the  audit  daemon.  The  signal  info
17       structure is as follows:
18
19       struct audit_sig_info {
20               uid_t           uid;
21               pid_t           pid;
22               char            ctx[0];
23       };
24
25       This  function is likely to be used only by audit daemons and shouldn't
26       be called by any other kind of program.
