rgrp_go_inval(9)

okay bestie, welcome to the rgrp_go_inval(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — the whole vibe is “invalidate the metadata for this glock.” ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

rgrp_go_inval — invalidate the metadata for this glock 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void rgrp_go_inval (struct gfs2_glock *gl , int flags );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• gl — the glock. that’s the note, bestie.
• flags — it’s listed here, but ngl there’s no extra description attached to it.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the deal is: we never used LM_ST_DEFERRED with resource groups, so we should always see the metadata flag set here. that’s the tea. 🍵
