NAME

       vn_isdisk — checks if a vnode represents a disk

SYNOPSIS

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

       int
       vn_isdisk(struct vnode *vp, int *errp);

DESCRIPTION

       The vn_isdisk() function checks to see if vp represents a disk.  In order for vp to be a disk, it must be
       a character device, v_rdev must be valid, and the cdevsw entry's flags must have D_DISK set.

       Its arguments are:

       vp    The vnode to check.

       errp  An integer pointer to store the error number in if the call fails.

RETURN VALUES

       If  the  vnode represents a disk, 1 is returned; otherwise, 0 is returned and errp will contain the error
       number.
