------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks to [~djoshi3] and [~spo...@gmail.com] for doing the first passes of 
review here, I'll take it the rest of the way.

[~vinaykumarcse] and I spoke offline about some things, and on the whole we are 
in the right direction. As I started reviewing the patch, the whitespace 
inconsistencies nagged at me, so I went ahead and fixed those, as well as some 
random code comments. Further, I made {{AuditLogFilters}} atomic and final, and 
no longer a singleton; a volatile reference is maintained in 
{{AuditLogManager}}. I also moved getLogEntry methods from {{AuditLogManager}} 
to {{AuditLogEntry}} as they seemed more apropos there. Code available 
[here|https://github.com/jasobrown/cassandra/tree/trunk_CASSANDRA-12151]. 
(Note: i didn't run the tests, so you may need to fix those up if necessary)
 
There are some things wrt the interaction of FQL and AuditLogging that I still 
need to work out in my head, and I've asked Vinay to add some nodetool commands 
for enabling/disabling auditlog as well (or, at least, to seriously think about 
it). However, I wanted to post that first batch of changes to get that out of 
the way.

> we would like a way to enable cassandra to log database activity being done 
> on our server.
> It should show username, remote address, timestamp, action type, keyspace, 
> column family, and the query statement.
> it should also be able to log connection attempt and changes to the 
> user/roles.
> I was thinking of making a new keyspace and insert an entry for every 
> activity that occurs.
> Then It would be possible to query for specific activity or a query targeting 
> a specific keyspace and column family.
