[on-discuss] Any shortcut for getting the full path to the process's executable file (and avoid |readlink("/proc/self/path/a.out", buff, buffsize)|) ?

Hi!

----

Is there any "shortcut" to get the full path to the process's executable
file ? Usually |readlink("/proc/self/path/a.out", buff, buffsize)| or
|getexecname()| can be used - but is there any _faster_ way (e.g.
something _not_ using a syscall (e.g. is this information somewhere
above or below the |argv| array stored ?)) ?

Bye,
Roland
