NAME

       VOP_ADVLOCK — advisory record locking

SYNOPSIS

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

       int
       VOP_ADVLOCK(struct vnode *vp, caddr_t id, int op, struct flock *fl, int flags);

DESCRIPTION

       The arguments are:

       vp     The vnode being manipulated.

       id     The id token which is changing the lock.

       op     The operation to perform (see fcntl(2)).

       fl     Description of the lock.

       flags  One of more of the following:

                    F_WAIT    Wait until lock is granted.
                    F_FLOCK   Use flock(2) semantics for lock.
                    F_POSIX   Use POSIX semantics for lock.
                    F_REMOTE  Lock owner is remote NFS client.
                    F_NOINTR  Mask signals while waiting for the lock.

       This  entry point manipulates advisory record locks on the file.  Most file systems delegate the work for
       this call to lf_advlock().

RETURN VALUES

       Zero is returned on success, otherwise an error is returned.
