NAME         top

       audit_set_backlog_wait_time - Set the audit backlog wait time

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <libaudit.h>

       int audit_set_backlog_wait_time(int fd, uint32_t bwt);

DESCRIPTION         top

       audit_set_backlog_wait_time sets the time that the kernel will
       wait before attempting to send more audit events to be transferred
       to the audit daemon when the backlog_limit is reached. This gives
       the audit daemon a chance to drain the kernel queue. The default
       value is 60000 or 60 * HZ setting in the kernel.

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.
