Synopsis

fstat [options] [files]

Displays a list of open files and their status. By default, fstat lists all open files on the system. If any pathnames are specified in files, however, only those files are listed.

Options

-f [pathname]

List open files residing only on the same filesystem as pathname, or if pathname is not specified, the current working directory.

-M pathname

Extract values for the name list from core file pathname instead of /dev/kmem, the default.

-N pathname

Extract the name list from kernel file pathname instead of /mach_kernel, the default.

-n

Display data numerically. For filesystems, show the device number instead of mount point. For special files, show the device number instead of its /dev filename. For regular files, show permissions in octal instead of symbolic format.

-p pid

List only those files opened by the process whose ID is specified in pid.

-u username

List only those files opened by the user username.

-v

Be verbose.
