NAME
VOP_INACTIVE,
VOP_RECLAIM —
reclaim file system resources for a
vnode
SYNOPSIS
#include
<sys/param.h>
#include <sys/vnode.h>
int
VOP_INACTIVE(struct
vnode *vp, struct thread
*td);
int
VOP_RECLAIM(struct
vnode *vp, struct thread
*td);
DESCRIPTION
The arguments are:- vp
- The vnode being reclaimed.
VOP_INACTIVE()
is called when the kernel is no longer using the vnode. This may be because
the reference count reaches zero or it may be that the file system is being
forcibly unmounted while there are open files. It can be used to reclaim
space for ‘open but deleted’ files.
VOP_RECLAIM()
is called when a vnode is being reused for a different file system. Any file
system specific resources associated with the vnode should be freed.
LOCKS
For both VOP_INACTIVE() and
VOP_RECLAIM(), the vp will be
exclusively locked on entry, and must be left exclusively locked on
return.
