ff(1M)
NAME
ff - list file names and statistics for a file system
SYNOPSIS
ff [-F FSType] [-V] [generic_options] [-o specific_options]
special...
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 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 gen-
erated 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.
OPERANDS
special
A special device.
USAGE
See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of ff
when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2
**31 bytes).
FILES
/etc/default/fs
default local file system type. Default values can be
set for the following flags in /etc/default/fs. For
example: LOCAL=ufs
LOCAL The default partition for a command if no FSType
is specified.
/etc/vfstab
list of default parameters for each file system

and st_ctime fields of the stat structure respectively.
