NAME
     stat - data returned by stat system call

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/stat.h>

DESCRIPTION
     The system calls stat, lstat and fstat return data in a stat
     structure, which is defined in stat.h:
          struct   stat
          {
                   devt     stdev;
                   inot     stino;
                   modet    stmode;
                   nlinkt   stnlink;
                   uidt     stuid;
                   gidt     stgid;
                   devt     strdev;
                   offt     stsize;
                   timet    statime;
                   timet    stmtime;
                   timet    stctime;
          };

     The constants used in the stmode field are also defined  in
     this file:
