Synopsis

#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int __xstat(int __ver, const char *__filename, (struct stat *__stat_buf));

int __lxstat(int __ver, const char *__filename, (struct stat *__stat_buf));

int __fxstat(int __ver, int __filedesc, (struct stat *__stat_buf));

Description

__ver must be 3 or the behavior of these functions is undefined.

__filename is as specified in POSIX.

__filedesc is as specified in POSIX.

__stat_buf is as specified in POSIX.

__xstat(3, __filename, __stat_buf) has the same specification as stat(__filename, __stat_buf) as specified by POSIX.

__lxstat(3, __filename, __stat_buf) has the same specification as lstat(__filename, __stat_buf) as specified by POSIX.

__fxstat(3, __filedesc, __stat_buf) has the same specification as fstat(__filedesc, __stat_buf) as specified by POSIX.

Note that the struct stat used by these functions is not the one that the kernel uses.

__xstat, __lxstat, and __fxstat are not in the source standard; they are only in the binary standard.

stat, lstat, and fstat are not in the binary standard; they are only in the source standard.
