path_lookup for executable

I am trying to get inode for an executable program. For example, I wish to get inode for /usr/jdk/bin/java file in a module. The following call always return an error. Is there a way to get the inode of current process, assuming I have access to "current"

PLEASE CC' [email protected] your answers.

Thanks
Eyub

err = path_lookup("/ /usr/jdk/bin/java", LOOKUP_FOLLOW|LOOKUP_DIRECTORY|LOOKUP_NOALT, &nd);

   path_release(&nd);
