STATFS(2-BSD)       RISC/os Reference Manual        STATFS(2-BSD)



NAME
     statfs, fstatfs - get file system statistics

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/vfs.h>

     statfs(path, buf)
     char *path;
     struct statfs *buf;

     fstatfs(fd, buf)
     int fd;
     struct statfs *buf;

DESCRIPTION
     statfs returns information about a mounted file system.
     path is the path name of any file within the mounted
     filesystem.  buf is a pointer to a statfs structure defined
     as follows:

     typedef struct {
            long    val[2];
     } fsid_t;

     struct statfs {
            long    f_type;     /* type of info, zero for now */
            long    f_bsize;    /* fundamental file system block size */
            long    f_blocks;   /* total blocks in file system */
            long    f_bfree;    /* free blocks */
            long    f_bavail;   /* free blocks available to non-superuser */
            long    f_files;    /* total file nodes in file system */
            long    f_ffree;    /* free file nodes in fs */
            fsid_t  f_fsid;     /* file system id */
            long    f_spare[7]; /* spare for later */
     };

     Fields that are undefined for a particular file system are
     set to -1.  fstatfs returns the same information about an
     open file referenced by descriptor fd.

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned.  Oth-
     erwise, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set
     to indicate the error.

ERRORS
     statfs fails if one or more of the following are true:

     ENOTDIR        A component of the path prefix of path is not
                    a directory.

     EINVAL         path contains a character with the high-order
                    bit set.

STATFS(2-BSD)       RISC/os Reference Manual        STATFS(2-BSD)



     ENAMETOOLONG   The length of a component of path exceeds 255
                    characters, or the length of path exceeds
                    1023 characters.

     ENOENT         The file referred to by path does not exist.

     EACCES         Search permission is denied for a component
                    of the path prefix of path.

     ELOOP          Too many symbolic links were encountered in
                    translating path.

     EFAULT         buf or path points to an invalid address.

     EIO            An I/O error occurred while reading from or
                    writing to the file system.

     fstatfs fails if one or both of the following are true:

     EBADF          fd is not a valid open file descriptor.

     EFAULT         buf points to an invalid address.

     EIO            An I/O error occurred while reading from or
                    writing to the file system.
