i am putting a printk() on link_path_walk() kernel function ( the pathname resolution function). i access that printk() only at some special condition (like if pathname passed to link_path_walk() matches with some name) . but when it gets hit like when i pass pathname via unlink(2) , lots of messages are written to dmesg ( or /var/log/messages) . i could not understand why these lots of messages are being written ? (i was hoping for only one message)
i check for the match with some perticular filename just for a trial.
thanks in advance
