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