NAME         top

       audit_set_backlog_limit - Set the audit backlog limit

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <libaudit.h>

       int audit_set_backlog_limit(int fd, uint32_t limit);

DESCRIPTION         top

       audit_set_backlog_limit sets the queue length for audit events
       awaiting transfer to the audit daemon. The default value is 64
       which can potentially be overrun by bursts of activity. When the
       backlog limit is reached, the kernel consults the failure_flag to
       see what action to take.

RETURN VALUE         top

       The return value is <= 0 on error, otherwise it is the netlink
       sequence id number. This function can have any error that sendto
       would encounter.
