The <i>path</i> argument points to a pathname naming a file. Read, write, or execute permission of the named file is notrequired. An implementation that provides additional or alternate file access control mechanisms may, under implementation-definedconditions, cause <i>stat</i>() to fail. In particular, the system may deny the existence of the file specified by <i>path</i>.</p><p>If the named file is a symbolic link, the <i>stat</i>() function shall continue pathname resolution using the contents of thesymbolic link, and shall return information pertaining to the resulting file if the file exists.</p><p>The <i>buf</i> argument is a pointer to a <b>stat</b> structure, as defined in the <a href="../basedefs/sys/stat.h.html"><i><sys/stat.h></i></a> header, into which information is placed concerning the file.</p><p>The <i>stat</i>() function shall update any time-related fields (as described in the Base Definitions volume ofIEEE Std 1003.1-2001, <a href="../basedefs/xbd_chap04.html#tag_04_07">Section 4.7, File Times Update</a>), before writinginto the <b>stat</b> structure.</p><p>Unless otherwise specified, the structure members <i>st_mode</i>, <i>st_ino</i>, <i>st_dev</i>, <i>st_uid</i>, <i>st_gid</i>,<i>st_atime</i>, <i>st_ctime</i>, and <i>st_mtime</i> shall have meaningful values for all file types defined in this volume ofIEEE Std 1003.1-2001.
