SYNOPSIS ======== -#### Examine encrypted file/directory statfs PATH DESCRIPTION =========== -There are no options to this command. +The statfs(2) system call returns information about a mounted filesystem +in a `statfs_t` structure. This tool dumps this information in JSON format. +It is developed as part of gocryptfs and written in Go. + +The `statfs_t` structure is architecture-dependent. On amd64 it looks like this: + +``` +type Statfs_t struct { + Type int64 + Bsize int64 + Blocks uint64 + Bfree uint64 + Bavail uint64 + Files uint64 + Ffree uint64 + Fsid struct { + Val [2]int32 + } + Namelen int64 + Frsize int64 + Flags int64 + Spare [4]int64 +} +``` + +See the statfs(2) man page for the meaning of these fields, and note +that the field names here are acc. to the Go `golang.org/x/sys/unix` +naming convention, and slightly different than in C. EXAMPLES ======== -Examine a directory entry: +Get the statfs(2) information for /tmp: - statfs myfs/mCXnISiv7nEmyc0glGuhTQ +``` +$ statfs /tmp +{ + "Type": 16914836, + "Bsize": 4096, + "Blocks": 3067428, + "Bfree": 3067411, + "Bavail": 3067411, + "Files": 3067428, + "Ffree": 3067381, + "Fsid": { + "Val": [ + 0, + 0 + ] + }, + "Namelen": 255, + "Frsize": 4096, + "Flags": 38, + "Spare": [ + 0, + 0, + 0, + 0 + ] +} +``` SEE ALSO ======== -gocryptfs(1) gocryptfs-xray(1) +statfs(2) gocryptfs(1) |
