|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
This is used by the NFS server to turn an NFS filehandle into a vnode.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Its arguments are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width vpp
|
|
.It Ar mp
|
|
The file system.
|
|
.It Ar fhp
|
|
The filehandle to convert.
|
|
.It Ar vpp
|
|
Return parameter for the new locked vnode.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The contents of the filehandle are defined by the file system and are
|
|
not examined by any other part of the system. It should contain
|
|
enough information to uniquely identify a file within the file system
|
|
as well as noticing when a file has been removed and the file system
|
|
resources have been reused for a new file. For instance, UFS
|
|
file system stores the inode number and inode generation counter in its
|
|
filehandle.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A call to this function should generally be preceded by a call to
|
|
.Xr VFS_CHECKEXP 9
|
|
to check if the file is accessible to the client.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The locked vnode for the file will be returned in
|
|
.Fa *vpp .
