File hierarchy objects are created with the vn_create, vn_mkdir, and vn_symlink calls.

The interface for all these operations includes:
  • The object's parent directory vnode, as a token structure
  • The object's name, as a character string
  • An ATTR structure

Serialization: An exclusive latch is held on the parent directory vnode.
