libssh2_sftp_seek64(3) libssh2 manual libssh2_sftp_seek64(3)NAME
libssh2_sftp_seek64 - set the read/write position within a file
SYNOPSIS
#include <libssh2.h>
#include <libssh2_sftp.h>
void libssh2_sftp_seek64(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle,
libssh2_uint64_t offset);
DESCRIPTION
handle - SFTP File Handle as returned by libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3)
offset - Number of bytes from the beginning of file to seek to.
Move the file handle's internal pointer to an arbitrary location. libssh2 implements file pointers as a localized concept to make file
access appear more POSIX like. No packets are exchanged with the server during a seek operation. The localized file pointer is simply used
as a convenience offset during read/write operations.
You MUST NOT seek during writing or reading a file with SFTP, as the internals use outstanding packets and changing the "file position"
during transit will results in badness.

libssh2_sftp_statvfs(3) libssh2 manual libssh2_sftp_statvfs(3)NAME
libssh2_sftp_statvfs, libssh2_sftp_fstatvfs - get file system statistics
SYNOPSIS
#include <libssh2.h>
#include <libssh2_sftp.h>
int
libssh2_sftp_statvfs(LIBSSH2_SFTP *sftp, const char *path,
size_t path_len, LIBSSH2_SFTP_STATVFS *st);
int
libssh2_sftp_fstatvfs(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle,
LIBSSH2_SFTP_STATVFS *st)
DESCRIPTION
These functions provide statvfs(2)-like operations and require statvfs@openssh.com and fstatvfs@openssh.com extension support on the
server.
sftp - SFTP instance as returned by libssh2_sftp_init(3)
handle - SFTP File Handle as returned by libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3)
path - full path of any file within the mounted file system.
path_len - length of the full path.
st - Pointer to a LIBSSH2_SFTP_STATVFS structure to place file system statistics into.
DATA TYPES
LIBSSH2_SFTP_STATVFS is a typedefed struct that is defined as below
struct _LIBSSH2_SFTP_STATVFS {
libssh2_uint64_t f_bsize; /* file system block size */
libssh2_uint64_t f_frsize; /* fragment size */
libssh2_uint64_t f_blocks; /* size of fs in f_frsize units */
libssh2_uint64_t f_bfree; /* # free blocks */
libssh2_uint64_t f_bavail; /* # free blocks for non-root */
libssh2_uint64_t f_files; /* # inodes */
libssh2_uint64_t f_ffree; /* # free inodes */
libssh2_uint64_t f_favail; /* # free inodes for non-root */
libssh2_uint64_t f_fsid; /* file system ID */
libssh2_uint64_t f_flag; /* mount flags */
libssh2_uint64_t f_namemax; /* maximum filename length */
};
It is unspecified whether all members of the returned struct have meaningful values on all file systems.
The field f_flag is a bit mask. Bits are defined as follows:
LIBSSH2_SFTP_ST_RDONLY
Read-only file system.
LIBSSH2_SFTP_ST_NOSUID
Set-user-ID/set-group-ID bits are ignored by exec(3).
RETURN VALUE
Returns 0 on success or negative on failure. If used in non-blocking mode, it returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would otherwise block.
While LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative number, it isn't really a failure per se.
ERRORS
LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC - An internal memory allocation call failed.
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket.
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT -
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL - An invalid SFTP protocol response was received on the socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be
returned by the server.
