.SH NAME

.SH SYNOPSIS
"SYNOPSIS"

\fB
.sp
void ntfs_dirty_inode (struct inode * \fIvi\fB);
\fR
.SH "ARGUMENTS"
.TP
\fB\fIvi\fB\fR
inode to mark dirty
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
This is called from fs/inode.c::\fB__mark_inode_dirty\fR, when the inode itself
is being marked dirty. An example is when \fBupdate_atime\fR is invoked.
.PP
We mark the inode dirty by setting both the page in which the mft record
resides and the buffer heads in that page which correspond to the mft record
dirty. This ensures that the changes will eventually be propagated to disk
when the inode is set dirty.
