explain_fstat_or_die − get file status and report errors
#include <libexplain/fstat.h>
void explain_fstat_or_die(int fildes, struct stat *buf);
The explain_fstat_or_die function is used to call the fstat(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_fstat(3), and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
explain_fstat_or_die(fildes, buf);
|
fildes |
The fildes, exactly as to be passed to the fstat(2) system call. |
||
|
buf |
The buf, exactly as to be passed to the fstat(2) system call. |
Returns:
This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
get file status
explain fstat(2) errors
|
terminate the calling process |
