DESCRIPTION
ff
prints the pathnames and inode numbers
of files in the file system which resides on the special device
special.
Other information about the files may be printed
using options described below. Selection criteria may be used to
instruct
ff
to only print information for certain files.
If no selection criteria are specified, information
for all files considered will be printed (the default); the
-i
option may be used to limit
files considered to those whose inodes are specified.
Output is sorted in ascending inode number order.
The default line produced by
ff
is:
-
path-name i-number
The maximum information the command will provide is:
-
path-name i-number size uid
OPTIONS
- -F
-
Specify the
FSType
on which to operate.
The
FSType
should either be specified here or be
determinable from
/etc/vfstab
by matching
the
special
with an entry in the table, or by consulting
/etc/default/fs.
- -V
-
Echo the complete command line,
but do not execute the command.
The command line is generated by using
the options and arguments provided by the user
and adding to them information
derived from
/etc/vfstab.
This option may be used to
verify and validate the command line.
- generic_options

Options that are supported by most FSType-specific modules
of the command. The following options are available:
-
- -I
-
Do not print the i-node number after each path name.
- -l
-
Generate a supplementary list of all path names for multiply-linked
files.
- -p prefix
-
The specified
prefix
will be added to each generated path name.
The default is `.' (dot).
- -s
-
Print the file size, in bytes, after each path name.
- -u
-
Print the owner's login name after each path name.
- -a n
-
Select if the file has been accessed in
n
days.
- -m n
-
Select if the file has been written or created in
n
days.
- -c n
-
Select if file's status has been changed in
n
days.
- -n file
-
Select if the file has been modified more recently than the argument
file.
- -i i-node-list
-
Generate names for only those i-nodes specified in
i-node-list.
i-node-list
is a list of numbers separated by commas (with no intervening spaces).
- -o
-
Specify
FSType-specific
options in a comma
separated (without spaces) list of suboptions and
keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation by the
FSType-specific
module of the command.
