STATFS(2)							     STATFS(2)

NAME
       statfs - 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.  Otherwise, -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.

       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.
