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

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:
* add VNODE and UPATH tokens to NFSv3 RPCs and debugged issues related to
it.
* Read libnfs code and APIs for writing tests
* Experimented with libnfs-raw APIs.

Currently, I'm:
* Writing tests with libnfs-raw APIs and Kyua-ATF.
