Open System Services System Calls Reference Manual (G06.29+, H06.08+, J06.03+)

System Functions (s and S) stat64(2)
• The current working directory is assigned from the VOLUME attribute of the Guardian
environment =_DEFAULTS DEFINE.
• The use of static memory by the process increases slightly.
These effects occur only when the first of the set of functions is called. The effects are not cumu-
lative.
NOTES
For J06.08 and earlier J-series RVUs, H06.19 and earlier H-series RVUs, or G-series RVUs, the
OSS Network File System (NFS) cannot access OSS objects that have OSS ACLs that contain
optional ACL entries.
For J06.09 and later J-series RVUs and H06.20 and later H-series RVUs, access by the OSS Net-
work File System (NFS) to OSS objects that have OSS ACLs that contain optional ACL entries
can be allowed, depending upon the NFSPERMMAP attribute value for the fileset that contains
the object. For more information about NFS and ACLs, see the acl(5) reference page.
On systems running H06.24 or later H-series RVUs or J06.13 or later J-series RVUs, you can use
this function with 32-bit or 64-bit OSS applications.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the value 0 (zero) is returned. Otherwise, the value -1 is returned,
and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
If any of these conditions occurs, the stat64() function sets errno to the corresponding value:
[EACCES] Search permission is denied for a component of the pathname pointed to by the
path parameter.
[EFAULT] Either the buffer parameter or the path parameter points to a location outside of
the allocated address space of the process.
[EFSBAD] The program attempted an operation involving a fileset with a corrupted fileset
catalog.
[EIO] An input or output error occurred. The device holding the file might be in the
down state, or both processors that provide access to the device might have
failed.
[ELOOP] Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating path.
[ENAMETOOLONG]
One of these is too long:
• The pathname pointed to by the path parameter
• A component of the pathname pointed to by the path parameter
• The intermediate result of pathname resolution when a symbolic link is
part of the path parameter
The pathconf( ) function can be called to obtain the applicable limits.
[ENOENT] One of these conditions exists:
• The file specified by the path parameter does not exist.
