VCLEAN(9)		      BSD Kernel Manual			     VCLEAN(9)

NAME
     vclean - disassociate the underlying file system from a vnode

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

     void
     vclean(struct vnode *vp, int flags, struct proc *p);

DESCRIPTION
     The vclean() function clears any VM and buffer data associated with the
     vnode vp and reclaims it from the underlying file system.

     Its arguments are:

     vp		The vnode to be cleaned.

     flags	The flags indicating how the vnode should be handled.

		DOCLOSE	     If this flag is set, vclean() will call
			     vinvalbuf(9) on the vnode. If the vnode is ac-
			     tive, it will be closed and inactivated in the
			     underlying file system.

     p		The process responsible for this call.

     The vnode interlock is held on entry. On exit, the v_tag field of the
     vnode will be set to VT_NON, and if the vnode was active, it will be
     placed on the vnode free list.

SEE ALSO
     vinvalbuf(9), vnode(9)
