VRECYCLE(9) BSD Kernel Manual VRECYCLE(9)NAMEvrecycle - recycle a vnode if its reference count is zero
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <sys/vnode.h>
int
vrecycle(struct vnode *vp, struct simplelock *inter_lkp, struct proc *p);
DESCRIPTION
The vrecycle() function places the vnode vp on the free list using
vgonel(9) if its v_usecount field is zero. If v_usecount is non-zero, it
simply returns. If v_usecount is zero and an interlock inter_lkp was
passed, this interlock will be unlocked before calling vgonel(9).
RETURN VALUESvrecycle() will return 1 if the vnode was placed on the free list. It
will return 0 if the reference count was non-zero, and any lock passed in
inter_lkp will still be locked.
