[Bug 1451601] [NEW] CAP_AUDIT_READ not included.

 

Public bug reported:

The version of libcap2/include/uapi/capabilities.h do not include
CAP_AUDIT_READ.

It is missing

/* Allow reading the audit log via multicast netlink socket */

#define CAP_AUDIT_READ          37


#define CAP_LAST_CAP         CAP_AUDIT_READ

This was added in 3.16. This causes capsh --supports=cap_audit_read to
return cap[cap_audit_read] not recognized by library even when kernels
can support it.

Could this get updated, or is there a blocker somewhere?

** Affects: libcap2 (Ubuntu)
