35file (located in the root directory of the filesystem running quotas).
36.Dv Q_QUOTACTL
37is defined in
38.Pa /usr/include/sys/fs/ufs_quota.h .
39.Fa qp
40is the address of the
41.Vt quotctl
42structure which is defined as
43.Bd -literal -offset 2n
44struct quotctl {
45  int op;
46  uid_t uid;
47  caddr_t addr;
48};
