GETFSSTAT(2) BSD System Calls Manual GETFSSTAT(2)NAME
getfsstat -- get list of all mounted file systems
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
#include <sys/ucred.h>
#include <sys/mount.h>
int
getfsstat(struct statfs *buf, long bufsize, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
The getfsstat() system call returns information about all mounted file systems. The buf argument is a pointer to statfs structures, as
described in statfs(2).
Fields that are undefined for a particular file system are set to -1. The buffer is filled with an array of statfs structures, one for each
mounted file system up to the byte count specified by bufsize. Note, the bufsize argument is the number of bytes that buf can hold, not the
count of statfs structures it will hold.
If buf is given as NULL, getfsstat() returns just the number of mounted file systems.
Normally flags should be 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 file system. Thus, some of the information will be out of date, but getfsstat() will not block wait-
ing for information from a file system that is unable to respond.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the number of statfs structures is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to
indicate the error.
ERRORS
The getfsstat() system call fails if one or more of the following are true:
[EFAULT] The buf argument points to an invalid address.
[EIO] An I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system.
SEE ALSO statfs(2), fstab(5), mount(8)HISTORY
The getfsstat() system call first appeared in 4.4BSD.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()

return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning .
Does this mean that it will run on any shell ?
Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ? (16 Replies)
