NAME
clwalk - clone, then search a directory, and change to a file within it
SYNOPSIS
Tclwalk tag[2] fid[2] newfid[2] name[28]
Rclwalk tag[2] fid[2] qid[8]
DESCRIPTION
The clwalk request is a combination of a clone request (see clone(5))
followed by a walk request (see walk(5)) on the new fid. If the walk
fails, there is an implicit clunk of newfid.
ENTRY POINTS
The clwalk message is an optimization for use on low-speed lines; it is
not generated by the kernel. The cfs(4) cached file system generates
it as a side-effect of any system call that interprets a file name.
