-.SH NAME
-statvfs, fstatvfs \- get filesystem statistics
-.SH LIBRARY
-Standard C library
-.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <sys/statvfs.h>
-.P
-.BI "int statvfs(const char *restrict " path \
-", struct statvfs *restrict " buf );
-.BI "int fstatvfs(int " fd ", struct statvfs *" buf );
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The function
-.BR statvfs ()
-returns information about a mounted filesystem.
-.I path
-is the pathname of any file within the mounted filesystem.
-.I buf
-is a pointer to a
-.I statvfs
-structure defined approximately as follows:
-.P
-.in +4n
-.EX
-struct statvfs {
- unsigned long f_bsize; /* Filesystem block size */
- unsigned long f_frsize; /* Fragment size */
- fsblkcnt_t f_blocks; /* Size of fs in f_frsize units */
- fsblkcnt_t f_bfree; /* Number of free blocks */
- fsblkcnt_t f_bavail; /* Number of free blocks for
- unprivileged users */
- fsfilcnt_t f_files; /* Number of inodes */
- fsfilcnt_t f_ffree; /* Number of free inodes */
- fsfilcnt_t f_favail; /* Number of free inodes for
- unprivileged users */
- unsigned long f_fsid; /* Filesystem ID */
- unsigned long f_flag; /* Mount flags */
- unsigned long f_namemax; /* Maximum filename length */
-};
-.EE
-.in
-.P
-Here the types
-.I fsblkcnt_t
-and
-.I fsfilcnt_t
-are defined in
-.IR <sys/types.h> .
-Both used to be
-.IR "unsigned long" .
-.P
-The field
-.I f_flag
-is a bit mask indicating various options that were employed
-when mounting this filesystem.
-It contains zero or more of the following flags:
-.\" XXX Keep this list in sync with statfs(2)
-.TP
-.B ST_MANDLOCK
-Mandatory locking is permitted on the filesystem (see
-.BR fcntl (2)).
-.TP
-.B ST_NOATIME
-Do not update access times; see
-.BR mount (2).
-.TP
-.B ST_NODEV
-Disallow access to device special files on this filesystem.
-.TP
-.B ST_NODIRATIME
-Do not update directory access times; see
-.BR mount (2).
-.TP
-.B ST_NOEXEC
-Execution of programs is disallowed on this filesystem.
-.TP
-.B ST_NOSUID
-The set-user-ID and set-group-ID bits are ignored by
-.BR exec (3)
-for executable files on this filesystem
-.TP
-.B ST_RDONLY
-This filesystem is mounted read-only.
-.TP
-.B ST_RELATIME
-Update atime relative to mtime/ctime; see
-.BR mount (2).
-.TP
-.B ST_SYNCHRONOUS
-Writes are synched to the filesystem immediately (see the description of
-.B O_SYNC
-in
-.BR open (2)).
-.P
-It is unspecified whether all members of the returned struct
-have meaningful values on all filesystems.
-.P
-.BR fstatvfs ()
-returns the same information about an open file referenced by descriptor
-.IR fd .
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-On success, zero is returned.
-On error, \-1 is returned, and
-.I errno
-is set to indicate the error.
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP
-.B EACCES
-.RB ( statvfs ())
-Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix of
-.IR path .
-(See also
-.BR path_resolution (7).)
-.TP
-.B EBADF
-.RB ( fstatvfs ())
-.I fd
-is not a valid open file descriptor.
-.TP
-.B EFAULT
-.I Buf
-or
-.I path
-points to an invalid address.
-.TP
-.B EINTR
-This call was interrupted by a signal; see
-.BR signal (7).
-.TP
-.B EIO
-An I/O error occurred while reading from the filesystem.
-.TP
-.B ELOOP
-.RB ( statvfs ())
-Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating
-.IR path .
-.TP
-.B ENAMETOOLONG
-.RB ( statvfs ())
-.I path
-is too long.
-.TP
-.B ENOENT
-.RB ( statvfs ())
-The file referred to by
-.I path
-does not exist.
-.TP
-.B ENOMEM
-Insufficient kernel memory was available.
-.TP
-.B ENOSYS
-The filesystem does not support this call.
-.TP
-.B ENOTDIR
-.RB ( statvfs ())
-A component of the path prefix of
-.I path
-is not a directory.
-.TP
-.B EOVERFLOW
-Some values were too large to be represented in the returned struct.
-.SH ATTRIBUTES

-.BR attributes (7).

-.SH VERSIONS
-Only the
-.B ST_NOSUID
-and
-.B ST_RDONLY
-flags of the
-.I f_flag
-field are specified in POSIX.1.
-To obtain definitions of the remaining flags, one must define
-.BR _GNU_SOURCE .
-.SH NOTES
-The Linux kernel has system calls
-.BR statfs (2)
-and
-.BR fstatfs (2)
-to support this library call.
-.P
-The glibc implementations of
-.P
-.in +4n
-.EX
-pathconf(path, _PC_REC_XFER_ALIGN);
-pathconf(path, _PC_ALLOC_SIZE_MIN);
-pathconf(path, _PC_REC_MIN_XFER_SIZE);
-.EE
-.in
-.P
-respectively use the
-.IR f_frsize ,
-.IR f_frsize ,
-and
-.I f_bsize
-fields returned by a call to
-.BR statvfs ()
-with the argument
-.IR path .
-.P
-Under Linux,
-.I f_favail
-is always the same as
-.IR f_ffree ,
-and there's no way for a filesystem to report otherwise.
-This is not an issue,
-since no filesystems with an inode root reservation exist.
-.SH STANDARDS
-POSIX.1-2008.
-.SH HISTORY
-POSIX.1-2001.
-.P
-Before glibc 2.13,
-.\" glibc commit 3cdaa6adb113a088fdfb87aa6d7747557eccc58d
-.BR statvfs ()
-populated the bits of the
-.I f_flag
-field by scanning the mount options shown in
-.IR /proc/mounts .
-However, starting with Linux 2.6.36, the underlying
-.BR statfs (2)
-system call provides the necessary information via the
-.I f_flags
-field, and since glibc 2.13, the
-.BR statvfs ()
-function will use information from that field rather than scanning
-.IR /proc/mounts .
