I haven't read the whole paper, but at first glance it would appear
to be trivial to do this under Linux, because the dentries maintain such
an absolute path to a file. The only thing that appears to be needed
for this is the new syscall and the applications to actually use it.
The syscall just needs to walk the dentry tree upwards to generate the
full path, as is already done in the __d_path() function.
Cheers, Andreas
