NAME

kcpath - print kernel conﬁguration pathnames

SYNOPSIS

kcpath [-b]

kcpath -d [conﬁg]

kcpath -x [conﬁg]

DESCRIPTION

kcpath prints the pathnames associated with a kernel conﬁguration. If conﬁg is speciﬁed,

kcpath gives

information about the saved kernel conﬁguration named conﬁg. Otherwise,

kcpath gives information

about the currently running conﬁguration. See kconﬁg(5) for information on saved kernel conﬁgurations.

Options

-b kcpath will print the basename of the currently running kernel.

-d [config] kcpath will print the full pathname of the directory containing the conﬁguration.

-x [config] kcpath will print the full pathname of the kernel executable for the conﬁguration.

If no options are speciﬁed, kcpath acts as if -b was speciﬁed.

RETURN VALUE

kcpath returns zero for success. It returns non-zero and prints a diagnostic message if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES

Print the basename of the currently running kernel:

$ kcpath -b

vmunix

Print the directory containing the currently running kernel:

$ kcpath -d

/stand/current

Print the pathname of the currently running kernel executable:

$ kcpath -x

/stand/current/vmunix

Print the directory containing the kernel for "str1013":

$ kcpath -d str1013

/stand/str1013

Print the pathname of the kernel executable for "str1013":

$ kcpath -x str1013

/stand/str1013/vmunix
