When using Audit Log in memory-buffered mode (ASYNCHRONOUS or PERFORMANCE), rotating a log file could be stalled for up to 1 second because file flushing thread wasn't being signaled properly. This patch fixes that, and causes log files to be rotated immediately upon request. However, since audit log file names contain rotation timestamp with resolution of 1 second, it introduces a possibility of log files being overwritten when rotated multiple times a second. To avoid potential loss of audit log information, timestamp used in names of newly rotated log files will be appended with a sequence number, whenever a file name collision was to occur.
