expect. seq_escape() is like seq_puts(), except that any character in s
which is in the string esc will be represented in octal form in the output.
There is also a function for printing filenames:
There is also a pair of functions for printing filenames:
int seq_path(struct seq_file *m, struct path *path, char *esc);
int seq_path_root(struct seq_file *m, struct path *path,
struct path *root, char *esc)
Here, path indicates the file of interest, and esc is a set of characters
which should be escaped in the output.
which should be escaped in the output. A call to seq_path() will output
the path relative to the current process's filesystem root. If a different
root is desired, it can be used with seq_path_root(). Note that, if it
turns out that path cannot be reached from root, the value of root will be
changed in seq_file_root() to a root which *does* work.
