This sub-module provides the normal OCaml Unix functions that deal with file size using native ints. These are here because, in general, you should be using 64bit file operations so that large files aren't an issue. If you have a real need to use potentially 31bit file operations (and you should be dubious of such a need) you can open this module
type stats
= Unix.stats
=
{
st_dev : int; | (** Device number *) |
st_ino : int; | (** Inode number *) |
st_kind : file_kind; | (** Kind of the file *) |
st_perm : file_perm; | (** Access rights *) |
st_nlink : int; | (** Number of links *) |
st_uid : int; | (** User id of the owner *) |
st_gid : int; | (** Group ID of the file's group *) |
st_rdev : int; | (** Device minor number *) |
st_size : int; | (** Size in bytes *) |
st_atime : float; | (** Last access time *) |
st_mtime : float; | (** Last modification time *) |
st_ctime : float; | (** Last status change time *) |

val sexp_of_stats : stats ‑> Sexplib.Sexp.t
val lstat : string ‑> stats
Same as UnixLabels.stat, but in case the file is a symbolic link, return the information for the link itself.
val fstat : File_descr.t ‑> stats
Return the information for the file associated with the given descriptor.
val lseek : File_descr.t ‑> int ‑> mode:seek_command ‑> int
