38 .Nd serialize access to a vnode
44 .Fn VOP_LOCK "struct vnode *vp" "int flags" "struct proc *p"
46 .Fn VOP_UNLOCK "struct vnode *vp" "int flags" "struct proc *p"
48 .Fn VOP_ISLOCKED "struct vnode *vp" "struct proc *p"
50 .Fn vn_lock "struct vnode *vp" "int flags" "struct proc *p"
52 These calls are used to serialize access to the filesystem, such as
53 to prevent two writes to the same file from happening at the
59 the vnode being locked or unlocked
61 One of the lock request types:
62 .Bl -column LK_EXCLUPGRADE -offset indent
63 .It Dv LK_SHARED Ta "Shared lock"
64 .It Dv LK_EXCLUSIVE Ta "Exclusive lock"
65 .It Dv LK_UPGRADE Ta "Shared-to-exclusive upgrade"
66 .It Dv LK_EXCLUPGRADE Ta "First shared-to-exclusive upgrade"
67 .It Dv LK_DOWNGRADE Ta "Exclusive-to-shared downgrade"
68 .It Dv LK_RELEASE Ta "Release any type of lock"
73 with these lock flags:
74 .Bl -column LK_CANRECURSE -offset indent
75 .It Dv LK_NOWAIT Ta "Do not sleep to wait for lock"
76 .It Dv LK_SLEEPFAIL Ta "Sleep, then return failure"
77 .It Dv LK_CANRECURSE Ta "Allow recursive exclusive lock"
78 .It Dv LK_NOPAUSE Ta "No spinloop"
83 with these control flags:
84 .Bl -column LK_RETRY -offset indent
85 .It Dv LK_RETRY Ta "Retry until locked"
86 .It Dv LK_NOOBJ Ta "Don't create object"
89 process context to use for the locks
92 Kernel code should use
94 to lock a vnode rather than calling
98 Zero is returned on success, otherwise an error is returned.
