✨ NAME ✨

okay so this is VFS_UNMOUNT(9) — from the Kernel Developer's Manual, no less — and it’s literally the page about unmounting a file system. bestie, it’s giving “we’re packing up the whole filesystem era” 💅.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

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

int
VFS_UNMOUNT(struct mount *mp, int mntflags);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

The VFS_UNMOUNT() macro unmounts a file system. yes, macro — not me being dramatic, that’s what it says.

The arguments it expects are:

  • mp — The file system.
  • mntflags — Bit-mask of flags for the unmount operation. The flags currently supported by VFS_UNMOUNT() are:
    • MNT_FORCE — Open files are forcibly closed before the file system is unmounted.
ngl, MNT_FORCE is giving “bestie, I said we’re LEAVING” 🔥 — open files are forcibly closed before the file system is unmounted. periodt.
