VCLEAN(9) BSD Kernel Manual VCLEAN(9)NAMEvclean - disassociate the underlying file system from a vnode
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <sys/vnode.h>
void
vclean(struct vnode *vp, int flags, struct proc *p);
DESCRIPTION
The vclean() function clears any VM and buffer data associated with the
vnode vp and reclaims it from the underlying file system.
Its arguments are:
vp The vnode to be cleaned.
flags The flags indicating how the vnode should be handled.
DOCLOSE If this flag is set, vclean() will call
vinvalbuf(9) on the vnode. If the vnode is ac-
tive, it will be closed and inactivated in the
underlying file system.
p The process responsible for this call.
The vnode interlock is held on entry. On exit, the v_tag field of the
vnode will be set to VT_NON, and if the vnode was active, it will be
placed on the vnode free list.
