Comment 3 Eric Paris 2006-09-28 00:55:25 UTC 
It's not exactly backwards.  It's actually that ctx->ppid in audit_filter_rules
is actually set to 0.  That is supposed to be the ppid of the task which made
the call.  (I'm not sure why i couldn't just use sys_getppid() there, but i'm
going to figure out why this isn't set.
