Description Carlos Bombonatti 2025-03-10 06:53:53 UTC 
Create audit DISTRO_FEATURE to enable audit support into compilation.

It is already introduced into systemd commit id 1bf5e676912c2cdf63b576796117135ef314580f .

Few recipies make it dependent from selinux, but it should be independent features:
${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'selinux', 'selinux audit', '', d)}

Let me know your opinion.

The DISTRO_FEATURES are for  system-wide tuning or configuration. Are there recipes other than systemd and maybe auditd ? 

perf, dbus, shadow, cronie(sp?) pseudo, all have PACKAGECONFIGs for audit so it probably makese sense. 

Can you test and send a set of patches to oe-core and other lists ?

A nice idea but we need someone to work on it.
