.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Getmntinfo
returns an array of
.I statfs
structures describing each currently mounted file system (see
.IR statfs (2)).
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
On successful completion,
.I getmntinfo
returns a count of the number of elements in the array.
The pointer to the array is stored into
.IR mntbufp .
Otherwise, zero is returned and
.I mntbufp
is unmodified.
.PP
.I Getmntinfo
passes its
.I flags
parameter transparently to
.IR getfsstat (2).
.SH BUGS
All information is contained in a static area,
so it must be copied if it is to be saved.
.SH SEE ALSO
getfsstat(2), statfs(2), mount(2), mount(8)
