NAME

       ausearch_add_timestamp_item_ex - build up search rule

SYNOPSIS

       #include <auparse.h>

       int  ausearch_add_timestamp_item_ex(auparse_state_t  *au,  const  char  *op,  time_t sec, unsigned milli,
       unsigned serial, ausearch_rule_t how)

DESCRIPTION

       ausearch_add_timestamp_item adds an event time condition to the  current  audit  search  expression.  The
       search  conditions  can  then  be  used to scan logs, files, or buffers for something of interest. The op
       parameter specifies the desired comparison. Legal op values are <, <=, >=, > and =.  The left operand  of
       the  comparison  operator  is  the timestamp of the examined event, the right operand is specified by the
       sec, milli, and serial parameters.

       The how value determines how this search condition will affect the existing search expression if  one  is
       already defined. The possible values are:

              AUSEARCH_RULE_CLEAR
                     Clear the current search expression, if any, and use only this search condition.

              AUSEARCH_RULE_OR
                     If a search expression E is already configured, replace it by (E || this_search_condition).

              AUSEARCH_RULE_AND
                     If a search expression E is already configured, replace it by (E && this_search_condition).

RETURN VALUE

       Returns -1 if an error occurs; otherwise, 0 for success.

APPLICATION USAGE

       Use  ausearch_add_item(3)  and ausearch_add_interpreted_item(3) to add conditions that check audit record
       fields.  Use ausearch_add_expression(3) to add complex search expressions using a single function call.
