I was trying to avoid knowledge of policy reloads (and really policy in general) with the rule skipping piece and the sequo checking when the rule is used. As far as the audit system is concerned, SELinux could be rolling dice to determine matches.

As for the big picture. Steve Grubb suggested a compromise of keeping the current methodology and enhancing it with KERN_INFO messages. I'd suggest message for the following:

• a rule that is inactive is inserted
• a rule that was active becomes inactive
• a rule that was inactive becomes active

Does that fit the bill?
