Thank you for comments.

I'm not sure whether I should use audit_log_untrustedstring().

This record contains multiple user-influenced comm names. If I use
audit_log_untrustedstring(), I would need to split this record into
multiple records like history[0]='...' history[1]='...' history[2]='...'
in order to avoid matching delimiters (i.e. ';', '=' and '>') used in
this record. This would also change from "char *" in "struct task_struct"
to array of struct { "comm name", "pid", "stamp" } in "struct task_struct".
I don't know whether such change makes easier to maintain than now.

Since I don't know existing functions for date formatting, I split it as
a new function. If it is acceptable, I'd like to make that function public
and replace tomoyo_convert_time() in security/tomoyo/util.c with that
function.

Regards.

Subject: [PATCH] audit: Emit history of thread's comm name.

When an unexpected system event (e.g. reboot) occurs, the administrator may
want to identify which application triggered the event. System call auditing
could be used for recording such event. However, the audit log may not be
able to provide sufficient information for identifying the application
because the audit log does not reflect how the program was executed.

This patch adds ability to trace how the program was executed and emit it
as an auxiliary record in the form of comm name, pid and time stamp pairs
as of execve().

type=UNKNOWN[1329] msg=audit(1421039813.810:3693): history='
name=swapper\0570;pid=1;start=20150112140720=>name=init;pid=1;
start=20150112140721=>name=systemd;pid=1;start=20150112140722=>
name=sshd;pid=2473;start=20150112050733=>name=sshd;pid=9838;
start=20150112051105=>name=bash;pid=9840;start=20150112051108=>
name=tail;pid=9876;start=20150112051653'

Since converting all bytes using audit_log_untrustedstring() makes this record
unparsable because this record includes multiple user-influenced comm names
which may match delimiters used in this record (i.e. ';', '=' and '>'), only
bytes which are not alphabets, numbers, '.', '_' nor '-' are escaped.
