struct dentry *
lookup_one_len_unlocked(const char * name,
struct dentry * base,
int len);

namepathname component to lookup

DESCRIPTION¶
Note that this routine is purely a helper for filesystem usage and should not be called by generic code. Unlike lookup_one_len, it should be called without the parent i_mutex held, and will take the i_mutex itself if necessary.COPYRIGHT¶
