user_login audit patch

This patch adds the missing event. It should be safe to add from a selinux policy view since its already allowing audit events via pam.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle.
Changing version to '24'.

Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2016-03-24 14:00:37 UTC
Rats, seems your patch doesn't apply cleanly to lightdm-1.10.6 , lemme check how bad it is.

Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2016-03-24 14:02:18 UTC
Ah, looks like at least some libaudit support was added in 1.10.6 release, do you know offhand if that is sufficient to satisfy you (and this bug)?

Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2016-03-24 14:41:59 UTC
OK, I found the thread,
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/lightdm/2015-December/000911.html

I'm going to guess (hope) the answer is yes, please re-open if that is not the case.

Comment 6 Steve Grubb 2016-03-24 14:51:25 UTC
This bug was against the older releases. Fedora 22/23's auditing is broken for Cinnamon because we cannot tell a user session from a cron job because of the missing event. As for the upstream audit event, I have not looked at it yet because it was not applicable to Fedora. When I see this event, then I'll know if upstream got it right.

Comment 7 Rex Dieter 2016-03-24 14:54:04 UTC
OK, I'll submit f22/f23 1.10.6 updates for testing

Comment 9 Steve Grubb 2016-03-24 15:40:38 UTC
Thanks. When I see it in testing, I'll pull it and give it karma. If something is wrong with the event, I'll contact upstream.
