   lookup_dcookie    ( 2 )

вернуть путь к записи каталога (return a directory entry's path)

Имя (Name)

lookup_dcookie - return a directory entry's path

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <sys/syscall.h>      /* Definition of SYS_* constants */
       #include <unistd.h>

int syscall(SYS_lookup_dcookie, uint64_t cookie, char *buffer, size_t len);

Note: glibc provides no wrapper for lookup_dcookie(), necessitating the use of syscall(2).


Описание (Description)

Look up the full path of the directory entry specified by the
       value cookie.  The cookie is an opaque identifier uniquely
       identifying a particular directory entry.  The buffer given is
       filled in with the full path of the directory entry.

For lookup_dcookie() to return successfully, the kernel must still hold a cookie reference to the directory entry.


Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

On success, lookup_dcookie() returns the length of the path
       string copied into the buffer.  On error, -1 is returned, and
       errno is set to indicate the error.

Ошибки (Error)

EFAULT The buffer was not valid.

EINVAL The kernel has no registered cookie/directory entry mappings at the time of lookup, or the cookie does not refer to a valid directory entry.

ENAMETOOLONG The name could not fit in the buffer.

ENOMEM The kernel could not allocate memory for the temporary buffer holding the path.

EPERM The process does not have the capability CAP_SYS_ADMIN required to look up cookie values.

ERANGE The buffer was not large enough to hold the path of the directory entry.


Версии (Versions)

Available since Linux 2.5.43.  The ENAMETOOLONG error return was
       added in 2.5.70.

Стандарты (Conforming to)

lookup_dcookie() is Linux-specific.

Примечание (Note)

lookup_dcookie() is a special-purpose system call, currently used
       only by the oprofile(1) profiler.  It relies on a kernel driver
       to register cookies for directory entries.

The path returned may be suffixed by the string " (deleted)" if the directory entry has been removed.
