sys/statvfs.h — VFS File System information structure


#include <sys/statvfs.h>

The <sys/statvfs.h> header shall define the structure that includes at least the following members:

unsigned long f_bsize    File system block size.
unsigned long f_frsize   Fundamental file system block size.
fsblkcnt_t    f_blocks   Total number of blocks on file system in units of f_frsize.
fsblkcnt_t    f_bfree    Total number of free blocks.
fsblkcnt_t    f_bavail   Number of free blocks available to
                         non-privileged process.
fsfilcnt_t    f_files    Total number of file serial numbers.
fsfilcnt_t    f_ffree    Total number of free file serial numbers.
fsfilcnt_t    f_favail   Number of file serial numbers available to
                         non-privileged process.
unsigned long f_fsid     File system ID.
unsigned long f_flag     Bit mask of f_flag values.
unsigned long f_namemax  Maximum filename length.

The fsblkcnt_t and fsfilcnt_t types shall be defined as described in <sys/types.h>.

The following flags for the member shall be defined:

Read-only file system.
Does not support the semantics of the ST_ISUID and ST_ISGID file mode bits.

The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.

int statvfs(const char *restrict, struct statvfs *restrict);
int fstatvfs(int, struct statvfs *);

None.

None.

None.

<sys/types.h>, the System Interfaces volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (“POSIX.1”), fstatvfs(3), statvfs(3)

First released in Issue 4, Version 2.

The type of , , and is changed from unsigned long to fsblkcnt_t; the type of , , and is changed from unsigned long to fsfilcnt_t.

The Open Group Corrigendum U035/5 is applied. In the DESCRIPTION, the types fsblkcnt_t and fsfilcnt_t have been described.

The keyword is added to the prototype for statvfs(3).

IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (“POSIX.1”)/Cor 1-2002, item XBD/TC1/D6/18 is applied, changing the description of ST_NOSUID from ``Does not support setuid(3) / setgid(3) semantics'' to ``Does not support the semantics of the ST_ISUID and ST_ISGID file mode bits''.
