Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
.The `glibc` dynamic loader now activates selected audit modules at run time Previously, the `binutils` link editor `ld` supported the `--audit` option to select audit modules for activation at run time, but the `glibc` dynamic loader ignored the request. With this update, the `glib` dynamic loader no longer ignores the request, and loads the indicated audit modules. As a result, it is possible to activate audit modules for specific programs without writing wrapper scripts or using similar mechanisms.
