NAME
vgone —
prepare a vnode for reuse
SYNOPSIS
#include
<sys/param.h>
#include <sys/vnode.h>
void
vgone(struct
vnode *vp);
DESCRIPTION
Thevgone()
function prepares the vnode to be destroyed. The preparation includes the
cleaning of all file system specific data and the removal from its mount point
vnode list.
If the vnode has a v_usecount of zero, and
its VI_DOOMED flag is not set, it is moved to the
head of the free list as in most cases the vnode is about to be reused, or
its file system is being unmounted.
The
vgone()
function takes an exclusively locked vnode, and returns with the vnode
exclusively locked.
