Sometimes, tag may be helpful and quick.
e.g
    cd /the/path/to/kernel/src
    ctags -R *
    if we want to see the definition of iget(), try
    vi -t iget
    in linux-2.4.7-10, iget() has multiple definition. you can iterate 
them with ":tn" (for next tag) and
     ":tp" (for prev tag).

   You can even ignore case, take as an example, if you want to examine 
the def of function My_Func(),
    but at that time, you are not quite sure whether the 1st char of 
My_Func() is in upper case of lower case.
    you can
        o. invoke vi
        o. if tags does not reside at `pwd`, invoke this command in vi:
            :set tag=/the/path/to/the/pertinent/tags
        o. examine the 1st definition with this vi command:  
             :ta my_func
      
The command "etags" also works fine with emacs. However, since I  am 
rather stupid,
I am clusy with that excellent tool.
