.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_close
|
|
function closes a disk and frees internal memory related to it.
|
|
It does not free the
|
|
.Fa disk
|
|
structure.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_fillout
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_fillout_blank
|
|
functions open a disk specified by
|
|
.Fa name
|
|
and populate the structure pointed to by
|
|
.Fa disk .
|
|
The disk is opened read-only.
|
|
The specified
|
|
.Fa name
|
|
may be either a mountpoint, a device name or a filesystem image.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_fillout
|
|
function assumes there is a valid superblock and will fail if not,
|
|
whereas the
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_fillout_blank
|
|
function makes no assumptions of that sort.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_write
|
|
function attempts to re-open a disk as writable if it is not currently.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The function
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_close
|
|

.Fn ufs_disk_fillout
|
|
may fail for any of the reasons
|
|
.Fn ufs_disk_fillout_blank
|
|
might, as well as for any reason

error methodologies in situations where no device could be found to

open.
