- * @cpfile:
- * @cno:

- * @nci:
+ * nilfs_cpfile_get_cpinfo - get information on checkpoints
+ * @cpfile: checkpoint file inode
+ * @cnop: place to pass a starting checkpoint number and receive a
+ * checkpoint number to continue the search
+ * @mode: mode of checkpoints that the caller wants to retrieve
+ * @buf: buffer for storing checkpoints' information
+ * @cisz: byte size of one checkpoint info item in array
+ * @nci: number of checkpoint info items to retrieve
+ *
+ * nilfs_cpfile_get_cpinfo() searches for checkpoints in @mode state
+ * starting from the checkpoint number stored in @cnop, and stores
+ * information about found checkpoints in @buf.
+ * The buffer pointed to by @buf must be large enough to store information
+ * for @nci checkpoints. If at least one checkpoint information is
+ * successfully retrieved, @cnop is updated to point to the checkpoint
+ * number to continue searching.
+ *
+ * Return: Count of checkpoint info items stored in the output buffer on
+ * success, or the following negative error code on failure.
+ * * %-EINVAL - Invalid checkpoint mode.
+ * * %-ENOMEM - Insufficient memory available.
+ * * %-EIO - I/O error (including metadata corruption).
+ * * %-ENOENT - Invalid checkpoint number specified.
