NAME
getfsstat - get list of all mounted filesystems SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h> #include <sys/mount.h> int getfsstat(buf,bufsize,flags) struct statfs *buf; int bufsize; int flags; DESCRIPTION
Getfsstat() returns information about all mounted filesystems. Buf is a pointer to statfs structures defined as follows: #define MNAMELEN 90 /* length of buffer for returned name */ struct statfs { short f_type; /* type of filesystem (see below) */ short f_flags; /* copy of mount flags */ short f_bsize; /* fundamental file system block size */ short f_iosize; /* optimal transfer block size */ long f_blocks; /* total data blocks in file system */ long f_bfree; /* free blocks in fs */ long f_bavail; /* free blocks avail to non-superuser */ ino_t f_files; /* total file nodes in file system */ ino_t f_ffree; /* free file nodes in fs */ u_long f_fsid[2]; /* file system id */ long f_spare[4]; /* spare for later */ char f_mntonname[MNAMELEN]; /* mount point */ char f_mntfromname[MNAMELEN]; /* mounted filesystem */ }; /* * File system types. - Only UFS is supported so the other types are not * given. */ #define MOUNT_NONE 0 #define MOUNT_UFS 1 /* Fast Filesystem */ Fields that are undefined for a particular filesystem are set to -1. The buffer is filled with an array of fsstat structures, one for each mounted filesystem up to the size specified by bufsize. If buf is given as NULL, getfsstat() returns just the number of mounted filesystems. Normally flags is currently unused. In 4.4BSD systems the usage is specified as MNT_WAIT. If flags is set to MNT_NOWAIT, getfsstat() will return the information it has available without requesting an update from each filesystem. Thus, some of the information will be out of date, but getfsstat() will not block waiting for information from a filesystem that is unable to respond. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the number of fsstat structures is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error. ERRORS
Getfsstat() fails if one or more of the following are true: [EFAULT] Buf points to an invalid address. [EIO] An I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the filesystem. SEE ALSO

The getfsstat function first appeared in 4.4BSD. 4.4 Berkeley Distribution December 24, 1995 GETFSSTAT(2)

NAME
statfs -- get file system statistics SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h> #include <sys/mount.h> int statfs(const char *path, struct statfs *buf); int fstatfs(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 file system. Buf is a pointer to a statfs structure defined as follows: typedef struct { int32_t val[2]; } fsid_t; #define MFSNAMELEN 15 /* length of fs type name, not inc. nul */ #define MNAMELEN 90 /* length of buffer for returned name */ struct statfs { short f_otype; /* type of file system (reserved: zero) */ short f_oflags; /* copy of mount flags (reserved: zero) */ long f_bsize; /* fundamental file system block size */ long f_iosize; /* optimal transfer block size */ long f_blocks; /* total data blocks in file system */ long f_bfree; /* free blocks in fs */ long f_bavail; /* free blocks avail 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 (super-user only) */ uid_t f_owner; /* user that mounted the file system */ short f_reserved1; /* reserved for future use */ short f_type; /* type of file system (reserved) */ long f_flags; /* copy of mount flags (reserved) */ long f_reserved2[2]; /* reserved for future use */ char f_fstypename[MFSNAMELEN]; /* fs type name */ char f_mntonname[MNAMELEN]; /* directory on which mounted */ char f_mntfromname[MNAMELEN]; /* mounted file system */ char f_reserved3; /* reserved for future use */ long f_reserved4[4]; /* reserved for future use */ }; 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 VALUES
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. [ENAMETOOLONG] The length of a component of path exceeds {NAME_MAX} characters, or the length of path exceeds {PATH_MAX} 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 more 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. HISTORY
