.SH "ARGUMENTS"
.PP
\fIchan\fR
.RS 4
channel to operate on
.RE
.PP
\fIbase_filename\fR
.RS 4
base name of files to create
.RE
.PP
\fIparent\fR
.RS 4
dentry of parent directory,
\fBNULL\fR
for root directory
.RE
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Returns 0 if successful, non\-zero otherwise\&.
.PP
Use to setup files for a previously buffer\-only channel created by
\fBrelay_open\fR
with a NULL parent dentry\&.
.PP
For example, this is useful for perfomring early tracing in kernel, before VFS is up and then exposing the early results once the dentry is available\&.
