auparse_interpret_field, auparse_interpret_realpath,auparse_interpret_sock_family,auparse_interpret_sock_port,auparse_interpret_sock_address - get current field's interpreted value
#include <auparse.h>
const char *auparse_interpret_field(const auparse_state_t *au);
const char *auparse_interpret_realpath(const auparse_state_t *au);
const char *auparse_interpret_sock_family(auparse_state_t *au);
const char *auparse_interpret_sock_port(auparse_state_t *au);
const char *auparse_interpret_sock_address(const auparse_state_t *au);
auparse_interpret_field allows access to the interpreted value in
the current field of the current record in the current event. The
returned string is escaped using the chosen method. The returned
value will be destroyed if you call this function again. If you
need to interpret another field and keep this value, you will have
to copy it for later use.
Examples of things that could be interpreted are: uid, gid,
syscall numbers, exit codes, file paths, socket addresses,
permissions, modes, and capabilities. There are likely to be more
in the future. If a value cannot be interpreted, its original
value is returned.
auparse_interpret_realpath is like auparse_interpret_field except
that it will call realpath on the results of gluing the cwd and
file together. This also implies that it only valid to be called
for the file name given in a PATH record.
auparse_interpret_sock_family will only return the socket family
portion of a socket address.
auparse_interpret_sock_port will only return the port portion of a
socket address. Not all socket families have a port. If that is
the case, you will get a NULL value in which case your best option
is to use the normal interpretation function.
auparse_interpret_sock_address will only return the address
portion of a socket address. Not all socket families have an ip
address. If that is the case, you will get a NULL value in which
case your best option is to use the normal interpretation
function.
Returns NULL if there is an error otherwise a pointer to the
interpreted value.
