M-x apropos RET file name RET

We find a buffer-file-name function... interesting!

Now, how to put that in the clipboard?  We know that when you type
C-w, the selection is put in the clipboard, so:

C-h k C-w

then click on simple.el (or type C-x o TAB RET) and read the source of
kill-region.  We see that it calls kill-new; we move the cursor on
kill-new and type C-h f RET

(global-set-key (kbd "M-z") 
   (lambda ()
     (interactive)
     (kill-new (buffer-file-name))))
