VOP_VPTOCNP — translate a vnode to its component name
Contents
Description
This translates a vnode into its component name, and writes that name to the head of the buffer specified
by buf.
vp The vnode to translate.
dvp The vnode of the parent directory of vp.
cred The caller credentials.
buf The buffer into which to prepend the component name.
buflen The remaining size of the buffer.
The default implementation of VOP_VPTOCNP scans through vp's parent directory looking for a dirent with a
matching file number. If vp is not a directory, then VOP_VPTOCNP returns ENOENT.
Errors
[ENOMEM] The buffer was not large enough to hold the vnode's component name.
[ENOENT] The vnode was not found on the file system.
History
The function VOP_VPTOCNP appeared in FreeBSD 8.0.
Locks
The vnode should be locked on entry and will still be locked on exit. The parent directory vnode will be
unlocked on a successful exit. However, it will have its use count incremented.
