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, int flags, struct vnode **vpp);

DESCRIPTION

      The VFS_VGET() looks up or creates a vnode from a (mount, inode#) tupple.
 
      Its arguments are:
 
      mp     The mount point.
 
      ino    The inode representing the file.  This is a unique number assigned
             by the file system when vnodes are first created.
 
      flags  Additional locking flags to pass through to vget(9).
 
      vpp    Return parameter for the vnode.
 
      This is an optional file system entry-point for file systems mainly
      intended for NFS server use, but many file systems use it internally in
      VOP_LOOKUP(9) and similar.
 
      If the file system does not support this call, then it should return
      EOPNOTSUPP.
 
      Please see ffs_vget() in sys/ufs/ffs/ffs_vfsops.c for the canonical exam‐
      ple.
      VFS(9), vget(9), vnode(9)
