DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The vhold() function increments the v_holdcnt of  the  given
vnode.  If the
     vnode  has  already  been  added  to  the  free list and its
v_holdcnt and
     v_usecount are both zero, it will be removed from  the  free
list and added
     to the vnode hold list.
