NAME
     stat - data returned by stat system call

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/stat.h>

DESCRIPTION
     The system calls stat, lstat and fstat return data in a stat
     structure, which is defined in stat.h:
          struct   stat
          {
                   dev_t     st_dev;
                   ino_t     st_ino;
                   mode_t    st_mode;
                   nlink_t   st_nlink;
                   uid_t     st_uid;
                   gid_t     st_gid;
                   dev_t     st_rdev;
                   off_t     st_size;
                   time_t    st_atime;
                   time_t    st_mtime;
                   time_t    st_ctime;
          };

     The constants used in the st_mode field are also defined  in
     this file:
