.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/param.h>
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/vnode.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn VOP_SEEK "struct vnode *vp" "off_t oldoff" "off_t newoff" "struct ucred *cred"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
This seeks to a given location in a file, possibly extending the file.
|
|
Most filesystems do not implement this entry point and automatically
|
|
extend the file when it is written to.
|
|
In fact, the only place in the entire kernel where this is called is
|
|
from the union filesystem and then only to implement its own VOP_SEEK
|
|
entry point.

|
|
.It Ar oldoff

|
