5.4.2.7: fstat Handler

Corresponding Structure Element:

fstat()

Arguments:

rtems_filesystem_location_info_t   *loc,
struct stat                        *buf

Description:

The following information is extracted from the filesystem specific node and placed in the stat structure:

• st_mode
• st_nlink
• st_ino
• st_uid
• st_gid
• st_atime
• st_mtime
• st_ctime

NOTES:

Both the stat() and lstat() services are implemented directly using the fstat() handler. The difference in behavior is determined by how the path is evaluated prior to this handler being called on a particular file entity.

The fstat() system call is implemented directly on top of this filesystem handler.
