SYNOPSIS
#include <libexplain/stat.h>

explain_stat_or_die(pathname, buf);
pathname
The pathname, exactly as to be passed to the stat(2) system call.
buf The buf, exactly as to be passed to the stat(2) system call.
Returns:
This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
