STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
The POSIX standards leave some features to the implementing vendor to define. These features
are affected in the HP implementation:
— For files other than regular disk files or symbolic links, the st_size field
of the stat structure is set to 0 (zero). For directories, st_size is set to
4096.
— The S_IRWXU, S_IRWXG, S_IRWXO, S_IFMT, S_ISVTX,
S_ISGID, and S_ISUID bits are ORed into the st_mode field of the stat
structure.
HP extensions to the XPG4 Version 2 specification are:
— The errno values [EFAULT], [EFSBAD], [ENOROOT], [ENOTSUP],
[ENXIO], and [EOSSNOTRUNNING] can be returned by the stat()
function.
