VFS_VGET(9)           DragonFly Kernel Developer's Manual          VFS_VGET(9)

NAME
     VFS_VGET -- convert an inode number to a vnode

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <sys/mount.h>
     #include <sys/vnode.h>

     int
     VFS_VGET(struct mount *mp, ino_t ino, struct vnode **vpp);

DESCRIPTION
     This converts an inode number into a locked vnode.

     Its arguments are:

     mp   The filesystem.

     ino  The inode representing the file.

     vpp  Return parameter for the vnode.

     This is an optional filesystem entrypoint for filesystems which have a
     unique id number for every file in the filesystem.  It is used internally
     by the UFS filesystem and also by the NFSv3 server to implement the
     READDIRPLUS nfs call.

     If the filesystem does not support this call, then it should return
     EOPNOTSUPP.
