SYNOPSIS


.In sys/param.h
.In sys/vnode.h int vn_isdisk "struct vnode *vp" "int *errp"

DESCRIPTION

The vn_isdisk function checks to see if vp represents a disk. In order for vp to be a disk, it must be a character device, v_rdev must be valid, and the
.Vt cdevsw entry’s flags must have D_DISK set.

Its arguments are:

vp The vnode to check.
errp An integer pointer to store the error number in if the call fails.

RETURN VALUES

If the vnode represents a disk, 1 is returned; otherwise, 0 is returned and errp will contain the error number.
