NAME

       audit_set_backlog_wait_time - Set the audit backlog wait time

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libaudit.h>

       int audit_set_backlog_wait_time(int fd, uint32_t bwt);"

DESCRIPTION

       audit_set_backlog_wait_time  sets the time that the kernel will wait before attempting to send more audit
       events on the descriptor given in fd. The bwt parameter specifies the delay in jiffies before  attempting
       to  transfer more events 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

       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.
