ASDF is a tool for describing how source files are organized: what depends on which and when. It is roughly what Common Lisp hackers use to build software where C hackers would use say GNU Make. ASDF stands for Another System Definition Facility, in the continuity of the Lisp DEFSYSTEM of yore.

Is there a way to determine what asdf system contains a piece of code? Obviously:
(let ((p *package*))
(defun get-package ()
