DROP_NLINK(9) The Linux VFS DROP_NLINK(9) NAME drop_nlink - directly drop an inodeĀ“s link count SYNOPSIS void drop_nlink(struct inode * inode); ARGUMENTS inode inode DESCRIPTION This is a low-level filesystem helper to replace any direct filesystem manipulation of i_nlink. In cases where we are attempting to track writes to the filesystem, a decrement to zero means an imminent write when the file is truncated and actually unlinked on the filesystem.
