SYNOPSIS
.In sys/param.h
.In sys/mount.h
.In sys/vnode.h int VFS_VGET "struct mount *mp" "ino_t ino" "int flags" "struct vnode **vpp"
DESCRIPTION
The VFS_VGET looks up or creates a vnode from a (mount, inode#) tupple. Its arguments are: | mp | The mount point. | | ino | The inode representing the file. This is a unique number assigned by the file system when vnodes are first created. | | flags | Additional locking flags to pass through to vget(9). | | vpp | Return parameter for the vnode. | |
This is an optional file system entry-point for file systems mainly intended for NFS server use, but many file systems use it internally in VOP_LOOKUP(9) and similar. If the file system does not support this call, then it should return EOPNOTSUPP. Please see ffs_vget in sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_vfsops.c for the canonical example.
