NAME

       audit_set_backlog_limit - Set the audit backlog limit

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libaudit.h>

       int audit_set_backlog_limit (int fd, int limit);

DESCRIPTION

       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

       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.
