nfs_close_context(9)

💅 nfs_close_context(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the nfs_close_context glow-up page — this is the Kernel API Manual entry, and we're gonna make it make sense 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

nfs_close_context — the common close_context() routine for NFSv2/v3, fr fr 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void nfs_close_context (struct nfs_open_context *ctx , int is_sync );

like, that's the whole vibe check right there 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ctx — a pointer to the context 💫 like yeah it's just a pointer, but it's the pointer, yk?
• is_sync — is this a synchronous close? that's literally the question it's asking 😭 yes or no bestie

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea ☕ — this routine makes sure the attributes are up to date if we're mounted with close-to-open semantics, and we've got cached data that's gonna need revalidating on open. both conditions, no shortcuts, no cap 💅

think of it as the "double-check the receipts before you walk out the door" energy 🔥
