SYNOPSIS
kcpath
[-b]
kcpath -d
[config]

prints the pathnames associated with a kernel configuration. If
config
is specified,
kcpath
gives information about the saved kernel configuration named

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

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

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
