Per Otterström commented on CASSANDRA-14498:
--------------------------------------------
Thanks! The patch looks mostly good to me.
There is one corner case that I'm not able to cover properly though; that is
having audit logs on _all_ keyspaces. This is not possible to configure, I
think, since it is not possible to have an empty {{excluded_keyspaces}} list in
the yaml, and anything listed in {{included_keyspaces}} will be overruled by
things in the {{excluded_keyspaces}} list. The only way around it would be to
configure a single non-existing keyspace in the {{excluded_keyspaces}} list,
but that doesn't feel quite right.
Also, most out of curiosity, what's the reasoning for adding
{{system_virtual_schema}} to the default exclude-list?

> Audit logs does not include statements on the "system" and "system_schema"
> keyspace.
> It may be a common use case to whitelist queries on these keyspaces, but
> Cassandra should not make assumptions. Users who don't want these statements
> in their audit log are still able to whitelist them with configuration.
