Otherwise, -1 is returned and the global variable .Va errno is set to indicate the error. .Sh ERRORS .Fn Statfs fails if one or more of the following are true: .Bl -tag -width ENAMETOOLONGA .It Bq Er ENOTDIR A component of the path prefix of .Fa Path is not a directory. .It Bq Er EINVAL .Fa path contains a character with the high-order bit set. .It Bq Er ENAMETOOLONG The length of a component of .Fa path exceeds 255 characters, or the length of .Fa path exceeds 1023 characters. .It Bq Er ENOENT The file referred to by .Fa path does not exist. .It Bq Er EACCES Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix of .Fa path . .It Bq Er ELOOP Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating .Fa path . .It Bq Er EFAULT .Fa Buf or .Fa path points to an invalid address. .It Bq Er EIO An .Tn I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system. .El .Pp .Fn Fstatfs fails if one or more of the following are true: .Bl -tag -width ENAMETOOLONGA .It Bq Er EBADF .Fa Fd is not a valid open file descriptor. .It Bq Er EFAULT .Fa Buf points to an invalid address. .It Bq Er EIO An .Tn I/O error occurred while reading from or writing to the file system. .El .Sh HISTORY The .Nm statfs function first appeared in 4.4BSD.
