*cringe*

a) yes, it needs d_lock for that ->d_name access
b) iterate_fd() is there for purpose; use it, instead of open-coding the
damn loop. Something like

struct ctx {
char *page;
struct lttng_session *session,
struct task_struct *p;
};

static int dump_one(void *p, struct file *file, unsigned fd)
{
struct ctx *ctx = p;
const char *s = d_path(&file->f_path, ctx->page, PAGE_SIZE);
struct dentry *dentry;
if (!IS_ERR(s)) {
trace_lttng_statedump_file_descriptor(ctx->session, ctx->p, fd, s);
return 0;
}
/* Make sure we give at least some info */
dentry = file->f_path.dentry;
spin_lock(&dentry->d_lock);
trace_lttng_statedump_file_descriptor(ctx->session, ctx->p, fd,
dentry->d_name);
spin_unlock(&dentry->d_lock);
return 0;
}

...
task_lock(p);
iterate_fd(p->files, 0, dump_one, &(struct ctx){tmp, session, p});
task_unlock(p);

assuming it wouldn't be better to pass tmp/session/p as the single pointer
to struct in the first place - I don't know enough about the callers of
that sucker to tell. And yes, iterate_fd() will DTRT if given NULL as the
first argument. The second argument is "which descriptor should I start
from?", callback is called for everything present in the table starting from
that place until it returns non-zero or the end of table is reached...

PS: people really ought to be forced to read their code aloud over the phone -
that would rapidly improve the choice of identifiers ;-)
