nfsd_file_close_inode_sync(9)

💖 NAME: nfsd_file_close_inode_sync(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for nfsd_file_close_inode_sync — the whole mood is attempt to forcibly close a nfsd_file. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

literally the signature, character for character:

void nfsd_file_close_inode_sync (struct inode *inode );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• inode — inode of the file to attempt to remove. that’s the whole input, bestie 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This one closes out any open nfsd_files that can be reaped for inode. and yes, the nfsd_files are closed out synchronously — no delayed vibes here, periodt. ⭐

It’s called from nfsd_rename and nfsd_unlink to avoid silly-renames when reexporting NFS. no cap, that’s the whole point. 💜
