I'm using this in conjunction with a kauth listener, although it seems that it might not be necessary because the path that's given to it seems to be the absolute path of the file regardless of whether or not a symbolic link was used to access it. I assume you are referring to the fileop scope? Many of the paths that are passed to this scope are not necessarily viable candidates for lookup; for example the 'from' name for rename is gone by the time the kauth handler runs. There seems to be zero documentation on this, and the header file (vnode.h) is not very helpful. There is an interesting sounding function called "vnode_lookup" that I found in there, but I can't find any documentation on how to use it. You can find many examples of its use throughout the xnu sources. Do you know of any specific files that contain example usage of it? This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
