Random man page:  fstat(2) -- get file status
The fstat() function obtains information about an open file associated with the file descriptor fildes, and writes it to the area pointed to by buf. fildes is a file descriptor for an open file, which is created with the successful completion of an open(), creat(), dup(), fcntl(), or pipe() system call. See the open(2), creat(2), dup(2), fcntl(2), or pipe(2)) manpages for more detailed information...
