VFS_FHTOVP(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual VFS_FHTOVP(9)NAME
VFS_FHTOVP -- turn an NFS filehandle into a vnode
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <sys/mount.h>
#include <sys/vnode.h>
int
VFS_FHTOVP(struct mount *mp, struct fid *fhp, struct vnode **vpp);
DESCRIPTION
The VFS_FHTOVP() macro is used by the NFS server to turn an NFS filehandle into a vnode.
The arguments it expects are:
mp The file system.
fhp The filehandle to convert.
vpp Return parameter for the new locked vnode.
The contents of the filehandle are defined by the file system and are not examined by any other part of the system. It should contain enough
information to uniquely identify a file within the file system as well as noticing when a file has been removed and the file system resources
have been reused for a new file. For instance, UFS file system stores the inode number and inode generation counter in its filehandle.
A call to VFS_FHTOVP() should generally be preceded by a call to VFS_CHECKEXP(9) to check if the file is accessible to the client.
RETURN VALUES
The locked vnode for the file will be returned in *vpp.

Hi all,
I want to create a new user and grant him ONLY transfer files access to a specific directory where he can only upload and read the files. He should be restricted to this activity only.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

I am testing the behavior of a 32 bit application running on Solaris 5.10 (SPARC), and realize it reaches 4GB of memory and then crashes.
