.SH NAME
explain_ustat_or_die \- get file system statistics and report errors
.if require_index \{
.XX "explain_ustat_or_die(3)" \
"get file system statistics and report errors"
.\}
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <libexplain/ustat.h>
.sp 0.3
void explain_ustat_or_die(dev_t dev, struct ustat *ubuf);
.br
int explain_ustat_on_error(dev_t dev, struct ustat *ubuf);
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \f[B]explain_ustat_or_die\fP function is used to call the
\f[I]ustat\fP(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to
\f[I]stderr\fP, obtained from the \f[I]explain_ustat\fP(3) function, and
then the process terminates by calling \f[CW]exit(EXIT_FAILURE)\fP.
.PP
The \f[B]explain_ustat_on_error\fP function is used to call the
\f[I]ustat\fP(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to
\f[I]stderr\fP, obtained from the \f[I]explain_ustat\fP(3) function, but
still returns to the caller.
.TP 8n
\f[I]dev\fP
The dev, exactly as to be passed to the \f[I]ustat\fP(2) system call.
.TP 8n
\f[I]ubuf\fP
The ubuf, exactly as to be passed to the \f[I]ustat\fP(2) system call.
.\" ----------------------------------------------------
.SH RETURN VALUE
The \f[B]explain_ustat_or_die\fP function only returns on success, see
\f[I]ustat\fP(2) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation
and exits, it does not return.
.PP
The \f[B]explain_ustat_on_error\fP function always returns the value return
by the wrapped \f[I]ustat\fP(2) system call.
.\" ----------------------------------------------------
.SH EXAMPLE
The \f[B]explain_ustat_or_die\fP function is intended to be used in a
fashion similar to the following example:
.RS
.ft CW
.nf
explain_ustat_or_die(dev, ubuf);
.fi
.ft R
.RE
