#define S_INSHD /* XENIX shared data subtype of IFNAM */
#define S_IFBLK /* block special */
#define S_IFREG /* regular */
#define S_IFLNK /* symbolic link */
#define S_IFSOCK /* socket */
#define S_IFDOOR /* door */
#define S_ISUID /* set user id on execution */
#define S_ISGID /* set group id on execution */
#define S_ISVTX /* save swapped text even after use */
#define S_IREAD /* read permission, owner */
#define S_IWRITE /* write permission, owner */
#define S_IEXEC /* execute/search permission, owner */
#define S_ENFMT /* record locking enforcement flag */

#define S_IRWXO /* read, write, execute: other */
#define S_IROTH /* read permission: other */
#define S_IWOTH /* write permission: other */
#define S_IXOTH /* execute permission: other */
The following macros are for POSIX conformance (see standards(5)):
#define S_ISBLK(mode) block special file
