SYNOPSIS

In sys/param.h In sys/linker.h Ft int Fn kldstat int fileid struct kld_file_stat *stat

DESCRIPTION

The Fn kldstat system call writes the info for the file referred to by Fa fileid into Fa stat .
struct kld_file_stat {
        int         version;    /* set to sizeof(struct kld_file_stat) */
        char        name[MAXPATHLEN];
        int         refs;
        int         id;
        caddr_t     address;
        size_t      size;
        char        pathname[MAXPATHLEN];
};

version
This field is set to the size of the structure mentioned above by the code calling Fn kldstat , and not Fn kldstat itself.
name
The name of the file referred to by Fa fileid .
refs
The number of modules referenced by Fa fileid .
id
The id of the file specified in Fa fileid .
address
The load address of the kld file.
size
The amount of memory in bytes allocated by the file.
pathname
The full name of the file referred to by Fa fileid , including the path.

RETURN VALUES

Rv -std kldstat

ERRORS

The information for the file referred to by Fa fileid is filled into the structure pointed to by Fa stat unless:

Bq Er ENOENT
The file was not found (probably not loaded).
Bq Er EINVAL
The version specified in the Fa version field of stat is not the proper version. You would need to rebuild world, the kernel, or your application, if this error occurs, given that you did properly fill in the Fa version field.
Bq Er EFAULT
There was a problem copying one, some, or all of the fields into Fa stat in the copyout(9) function.

HISTORY

The kld interface first appeared in Fx 3.0 .

BUGS

The pathname may not be accurate if the file system mounts have changed since the module was loaded, or if this function is called within a chrooted environment.
