How to get the dentry value - no path_lookup

[Pria Mn]

Hi,



I happened to come across the below discussion.


http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/pipermail/kernelnewbies/2012-August/005914.html


I am having a similar issue.

I am using Rhel7-3.10.0-123

kernel. I tried all the options that are mentioned above and none of the
api's

including kern_path()

return valid dentry value. My requirement is to fetch directory name from
filepath.



Can anybody suggest a work-around for this ?
