FUNCTION::FULLPATH_STRUCT_NAMEIDATA(3stap)

💖 function::fullpath_struct_nameidata — 3stap, bestie 💖

okay so real talk, this one lives in the Directory-entry (dentry) Tapset and its manual name is 3stap, and it is genuinely the most unbothered little function in the whole SystemTap Tapset Reference. no cap. 🌸

---

✨ NAME ✨

function::fullpath_struct_nameidata — get the full nameidata path 👑

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

fullpath_struct_nameidata(nd:)

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no extra args, no little surprises hiding in there. 🦋

---

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

• nd — Pointer to “struct nameidata”. 💅

girl it's a pointer, so like, know what you're pointing at before you send it, mwah. 🫶

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

So what does she actually do? She returns the full dirent name — the whole entire full path all the way back to the root — exactly like the kernel does it, and like the d_path function from systemtap-tapset does it too. 🍓

and yes, she includes the “/”. iconic behavior, honestly. ⭐

so like, think of it as: you hand her the nd pointer, she hands you the whole path string, root and all, slash included, no crumbs left behind. that's the main character energy we're talking about. 👑

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

ngl bestie, this page doesn't list any SEE ALSO entries, so there's nothing to point you at here. go off though. 🧚✨

---

reminder: this is a tapset function, so it's the kernel's d_path-style full path we're getting, with the “/” and everything — same energy as described above, no more no less. 💖

okay that's the whole page, love you, bye 💖
