VCOUNT(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to VCOUNT(9) from the Kernel Developer's Manual 💅 — this one is short and sweet. vcount — get the total number of references to a device. That's the whole vibe: one little count, zero drama. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

First you gotta bring the whole include squad:

#include <sys/param.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <sys/conf.h>
#include <sys/vnode.h>

and then the function itself is literally:

int
vcount(struct vnode *vp);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

vcount() is used to get the number of references to a particular device. It allows for the fact that multiple vnodes may reference the same device — so yeah, it's counting the whole group chat, not just one profile. 💖

🎀 RETURN VALUES 🎀

vcount() returns the number of references to the device. That's the return value, periodt. 👑
