To start with - look into
Code:
man dirent

This only gets directory information.

Basically - the data you are talking about is only available in kernel mode. What you want to do is look into the filesystem code for your box - ufs, ffs, ext2, or whatever.

Google for 'McKusick fast file system' to see what I'm talking about - there are some videos.

CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER(3)					     curl_easy_setopt options					    CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER(3)

NAME
CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER - custom HTTP headers to pass to proxy SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h> CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER, struct curl_slist *headers); DESCRIPTION
Pass a pointer to a linked list of HTTP headers to pass in your HTTP request sent to a proxy. The rules for this list is identical to the CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3) option's. The headers set with this option is only ever used in requests sent to a proxy - when there's also a request sent to a host. The first line in a request (containing the method, usually a GET or POST) is NOT a header and cannot be replaced using this option. Only the lines following the request-line are headers. Adding this method line in this list of headers will only cause your request to send an invalid header. Pass a NULL to this to reset back to no custom headers. DEFAULT
NULL PROTOCOLS
HTTP EXAMPLE
TODO AVAILABILITY
Added in 7.37.0 RETURN VALUE
Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. SEE ALSO
CURLOPT_HEADEROPT(3), CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER(3), libcurl 7.54.0 February 03, 2016 CURLOPT_PROXYHEADER(3)
