NAME

     vgone — prepare a vnode for reuse

SYNOPSIS

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

     void
     vgone(struct vnode *vp);

DESCRIPTION

     The vgone() function prepares the vnode to be destroyed.  The preparation includes the
     cleaning of all file system specific data and the removal from its mount point vnode list.

     If the vnode has a v_usecount of zero, and its VI_DOOMED flag is not set, it is moved to the
     head of the free list as in most cases the vnode is about to be reused, or its file system
     is being unmounted.

     The vgone() function takes an exclusively locked vnode, and returns with the vnode
     exclusively locked.
