Return to VOP_LINK.9 CVS log

Up to [DragonFly] / src / share / man / man9

mdoc(7) assorted fixes:

	- Nuke usage of .Ar from Section 9.  The `.Ar' macro
	  should only be used for userland manual pages.

	- Replace usage of `.Ar' with `.Va' or `.Vt' as necessary.

   38: .Sh SYNOPSIS
   39: .In sys/param.h
   40: .In sys/vnode.h
   41: .Ft int
   42: .Fn VOP_LINK "struct vnode *dvp" "struct vnode *vp" "struct componentname *cnp"
   43: .Sh DESCRIPTION
   44: This links a new name in the specified directory to an existing file.
   45: .Pp
   46: Its arguments are:
   47: .Bl -tag -width 8n
   48: .It Fa dvp
   49: the vnode of the directory
   50: .It Fa vp
   51: the vnode of the file to be linked
   52: .It Fa cnp
   53: pathname information about the file
   54: .El
   55: .Pp
   56: The pathname info must be released on exit.  The directory and
   57: file vnodes should NOT be released on exit.
   58: .Sh LOCKS
   59: The directory,
   60: .Fa dvp
   61: is locked on entry and should remain locked on return.
   62: The file
   63: .Fa vp
   64: is not locked on entry and should remain that way on return.
   65: If your VOP code locks
   66: .Fa vp ,
   67: it must be sure to unlock prior to returning.
   68: .Sh RETURN VALUES
   69: Zero is returned if the file was linked successfully, otherwise an
   70: error is returned.
