statfs

Implemented in Antinomie 0.7.0 · Syscall list

Synopsis

long statfs(const char *path, struct statfs *buf);

Number (x86-64)	137
ABI	common
Kernel entry point	sys_statfs

This is the raw kernel prototype from the pinned Linux 6.12.94 schema, not the libc wrapper.

Description

Reads statistics (type, block size, free space) about the filesystem containing a path.

Arguments

Name	Type	Meaning
path (arg0)	const char *	Path, as a NUL-terminated string in user memory.
buf (arg1)	struct statfs *	Pointer to a data buffer.

Return value

On success: 0.

In an Antinomie trace the Return column and the ret filter field show the raw kernel return value. On failure that is the negative errno, for example -2 for ENOENT, not the -1 plus errno that the libc wrapper gives. syscall.errno holds the positive errno and syscall.success is false.

Common errors

Raw return	Name	Meaning
-13	EACCES	Permission denied.
-2	ENOENT	A path component or the named object does not exist.

Captured by Antinomie

Coverage mark: Implemented. Every pointer argument has a capture rule in the pinned kernel patch and none of them records a “no decoder”, “address only” or “not observed” gap on any code path. Individual values can still be incomplete on a particular call; see the capture statuses.

Every call is recorded as an Entry record (the six argument words and the pointees copied at entry) and an Exit record (the return value and the pointees copied at exit).

Arguments

Argument	When	How	Recorded field key	Condition
path (arg0)	Entry	the pointer itself, as a raw word	args.0, args.raw[0]
↳ pointee	Entry	NUL-terminated string, up to 4,096 bytes (PATH_MAX)	arg0.path	always
buf (arg1)	Entry	the pointer itself, as a raw word	args.1, args.raw[1]
↳ pointee	Exit	structure statfs (fixed size)	arg1.data	result is 0

Filter fields

• Result: ret, syscall.errno, syscall.success, syscall.duration_ns.
• Argument words: args.path (arg0), args.buf (arg1); args.0 to args.5 by position.
• Captured strings: the args.<name> field of a path argument, and args.path, give the captured text instead of the pointer.
• Structure statfs behind buf (arg1): args.buf.<member> for f_bavail, f_bfree, f_blocks, f_bsize, f_ffree, f_files, f_flags, f_frsize, f_fsid.val[0], f_fsid.val[1], f_namelen, f_spare[0], f_spare[1], f_spare[2], f_spare[3], f_type.
