.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <sys/param.h>
.Fd #include <sys/vnode.h>
.Ft int
.Fn VOP_GETATTR "struct vnode *vp" "struct vattr *vap" "struct ucred *cred" "struct proc *p"
.Ft int
.Fn VOP_SETATTR "struct vnode *vp" "struct vattr *vap" "struct ucred *cred" "struct proc *p"
.Sh DESCRIPTION

.Pp
The arguments are:
.Bl -tag -width cred
.It Ar vp
the vnode of the file
.It Ar vpp
the attributes of the file
.It Ar cred
the user credentials of the calling process
.It Ar p
the process

Attributes which are not being modified by
.Xr VOP_SETATTR 9

.Dv VNOVAL .
.Sh LOCKS
The file should not be locked on entry.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Xr VOP_GETATTR 9
returns information about the file in
.Fa *vap .
.Xr VOP_SETATTR 9
returns zero if the attributes were changed successfully, otherwise an
appropriate error is returned.
