NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     VOP_REVOKE -- revoke access to a device and its aliases

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

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

     int
     VOP_REVOKE(struct vnode *vp, int flags);

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     VOP_REVOKE() will administratively revoke access to the device specified
     by vp, as well as any aliases created via make_dev_alias(9).  Further
     file operations on any of these devices by processes which have them open
     will nominally fail.  The flags must be set to REVOKEALL to signify that
     all access will be revoked; any other value is invalid.

LOCKS    [Toc]    [Back]

     The vp must be unlocked on entry, and will remain unlocked upon return.

SEE ALSO    [Toc]    [Back]

     make_dev_alias(9), vnode(9)
