[GSoC'20 Weekly Update] Adding audit(4) support to NFS

[Shivank Garg]

Hi,

This project aims to add audit(4) support to NFS, which will allow
auditd(8) to just run on the NFS server and audit all activities within the
NFS network. Audit works mostly on the syscall level and NFS is implemented
within the kernel, which means the NFS RPCs don't generate any audit
records on the server.
Note that audit(4) can still be used on the NFS network but auditd(8) must
run on every NFS client.

This week I made the following progress:
* Wrote a skeleton code for NFSAuditTestSuite.
* Wrote tests for mkdir and create NFS RPCs.

Currently, I'm:
* Improving NFSAuditTestSuite code
* Writing Tests for remaining RPCs.
