 	VFS calls iput(). If you define this method, you must call

+  d_dname: called when the pathname of a dentry should be generated.
+	Usefull for some pseudo filesystems (sockfs, pipefs, ...) to delay
+	pathname generation. (Instead of doing it when dentry is created,
+	its done only when the path is needed.). Real filesystems probably
+	dont want to use it, because their dentries are present in global
+	dcache hash, so their hash should be an invariant. As no lock is
+	held, d_dname() should not try to modify the dentry itself, unless
+	appropriate SMP safety is used. CAUTION : d_path() logic is quite
+	tricky. The correct way to return for example "Hello" is to put it
+	at the end of the buffer, and returns a pointer to the first char.
+	dynamic_dname() helper function is provided to take care of this.

+Example :
+
+static char *pipefs_dname(struct dentry *dent, char *buffer, int buflen)
+{
+	return dynamic_dname(dentry, buffer, buflen, "pipe:[%lu]",

 Each dentry has a pointer to its parent dentry, as well as a hash list
 of child dentries. Child dentries are basically like files in a
 directory.
