Filesys::Statvfs - Perl extension for statvfs() and fstatvfs()
Contents
Description
Interface for statvfs() and fstatvfs()
Unless you need access to the bsize, flag, and namemax values, you should probably look at using
Filesys::DfPortable or Filesys::Df instead. They will generally provide you with more functionality and
portability.
The module should work with all flavors of Unix that implement the statvfs() and fstatvfs() calls. This
would include Linux, *BSD, HP-UX, AIX, Solaris, Mac OS X, Irix, Cygwin, etc ...
The statvfs() and fstatvfs() functions will return a list of values, or will return "undef" and set $! if
there was an error.
The values returned are described in the statvfs/fstatvfs header or the "statvfs()/fstatvfs()" man page.
The module assumes that if you have statvfs(), fstatvfs() will also be available.

Synopsis
use Filesys::Statvfs;
my($bsize, $frsize, $blocks, $bfree, $bavail,
$files, $ffree, $favail, $flag, $namemax) = statvfs("/tmp");
#### Pass an open filehandle. Verify that fileno() returns a defined
#### value. If you pass undef to fstatvfs you will get unexpected results
my $fd = fileno(FILE_HANDLE);
if(defined($fd)) {
($bsize, $frsize, $blocks, $bfree, $bavail,
$files, $ffree, $favail, $flag, $namemax) = fstatvfs($fd);
}
