38.Sh NAME
39.Nm fstat
40.Nd identify active files
41.Sh SYNOPSIS
42.Nm
43.Op Fl fmnv
44.Op Fl M Ar core
45.Op Fl N Ar system
46.Op Fl p Ar pid
47.Op Fl u Ar user
48.Op Ar
49.Sh DESCRIPTION
50The
51.Nm
52utility identifies open files.
53A file is considered open by a process if it was explicitly opened,
54is the working directory, root directory, active executable text, or kernel
55trace file for that process.
56If no options are specified,
57.Nm
58reports on all open files in the system.
59.Pp
60Options:
61.Bl -tag -width Ds
62.It Fl f
63Restrict examination to files open in the same filesystems as
64the named file arguments, or to the filesystem containing the
65current directory if there are no additional filename arguments.
66For example, to find all files open in the filesystem where the
67directory
68.Pa /usr/src
69resides, type
70.Dq Li fstat -f /usr/src .
71.It Fl M
72Extract values associated with the name list from the specified core
73instead of the default
74.Pa /dev/kmem .
75.It Fl N
76Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the default
77.Pa /boot/kernel/kernel .
78.It Fl m
79Include memory-mapped files in the listing; normally these are excluded
80due to the extra processing required.
81.It Fl n
82Numerical format.  Print the device number (maj,min) of the filesystem
83the file resides in rather than the mount point name; for special
84files, print the
85device number that the special device refers to rather than the filename
86in
87.Pa /dev ;
88and print the mode of the file in octal instead of symbolic form.
89.It Fl p
90Report all files open by the specified process.
91.It Fl u
92Report all files open by the specified user.
93.It Fl v
94Verbose mode.  Print error messages upon failures to locate particular
95system data structures rather than silently ignoring them.  Most of
96these data structures are dynamically created or deleted and it is
97possible for them to disappear while
98.Nm
99is running.  This
100is normal and  unavoidable since the rest of the system is running while
101.Nm
102itself is running.
103.It Ar
104Restrict reports to the specified files.
105.El
106.Pp
107The following fields are printed:
108.Bl -tag -width MOUNT
109.It Li USER
110The username of the owner of the process (effective uid).
111.It Li CMD
112The command name of the process.
113.It Li PID
114The process id.
115.It Li FD
116The file number in the per-process open file table or one of the following
117special names:
118.Pp
119.Bd -literal -offset indent -compact
120text	- executable text inode
121wd 	- current working directory
122root	- root inode
123tr	- kernel trace file
124mmap	- memory-mapped file
125.Ed
126.Pp
127If the file number is followed by an asterisk (``*''), the file is
128not an inode, but rather a socket,
129.Tn FIFO ,
130or there is an error.
131In this case the remainder of the line doesn't
132correspond to the remaining headers -- the format of the line
133is described later under
134.Sx Sockets .
135.It Li MOUNT
136If the
137.Fl n
138flag wasn't specified, this header is present and is the
139pathname that the filesystem the file resides in is mounted on.
140.It Li DEV
141If the
142.Fl n
143flag is specified, this header is present and is the
144major/minor number of the device that this file resides in.
145.It Li INUM
146The inode number of the file.
147.It Li MODE
148The mode of the file.  If the
149.Fl n
150flag isn't specified, the mode is printed
151using a symbolic format (see
152.Xr strmode 3 ) ;
153otherwise, the mode is printed
154as an octal number.
155.It Li SZ\&|DV
156If the file is not a character or block special, prints the size of
157the file in bytes.  Otherwise, if the
158.Fl n
159flag is not specified, prints
160the name of the special file as located in
161.Pa /dev .
162If that cannot be
163located, or the
164.Fl n
165flag is specified, prints the major/minor device
166number that the special device refers to.
167.It Li R/W
168This column describes the access mode that the file allows.
169The letter ``r'' indicates open for reading;
170the letter ``w'' indicates open for writing.
171This field is useful when trying to find the processes that are
172preventing a filesystem from being down graded to read-only.
173.It Li NAME
174If filename arguments are specified and the
175.Fl f
176flag is not, then
177this field is present and is the name associated with the given file.
178Normally the name cannot be determined since there is no mapping
179from an open file back to the directory entry that was used to open
180that file.  Also, since different directory entries may reference
181the same file (via
182.Xr ln 1 ) ,
183the name printed may not be the actual
184name that the process originally used to open that file.
185.El
186.Sh SOCKETS
187The formating of open sockets depends on the protocol domain.
188In all cases the first field is the domain name, the second field
189is the socket type (stream, dgram, etc), and the third is the socket
190flags field (in hex).
191The remaining fields are protocol dependent.
192For tcp, it is the address of the tcpcb, and for udp, the inpcb (socket pcb).
193For unix domain sockets, its the address of the socket pcb and the address
194of the connected pcb (if connected).
195Otherwise the protocol number and address of the socket itself are printed.
196The attempt is to make enough information available to
197permit further analysis without duplicating
198.Xr netstat 1 .
199.Pp
200For example, the addresses mentioned above are the addresses which the
201.Dq Li netstat -A
202command would print for tcp, udp, and unixdomain.
203Note that since pipes are implemented using sockets, a pipe appears as a
204connected unix domain stream socket.
205A unidirectional unix domain socket indicates the direction of flow with
206an arrow (``<-'' or ``->''), and a full duplex socket shows a double arrow
207(``<->'').
208.Sh BUGS
209Since
210.Nm
211takes a snapshot of the system, it is only correct for a very short period
212of time.
