    AFAIK, the closest you can get in Unix is to,

    • use reflection to find file descriptor.
    • examine the /proc/self/fd/{fid} to get the inode of the file and possibly the device to determine which file you are accessing.
    • do a search of the device to find which filename(s) which are linked to that file.
