使用stat (/usr/include/sys/stat.h)系統呼叫，介面如下：

 stat (__const char *__path, struct stat *__statbuf)

得到的資訊在stat結構體中：

struct stat
  {
    __dev_t st_dev;		/* Device.  */
#if __WORDSIZE == 32
    unsigned short int __pad1;
#endif
#if __WORDSIZE == 64 || !defined __USE_FILE_OFFSET64
    __ino_t st_ino;		/* File serial number.	*/
#else
    __ino_t __st_ino;			/* 32bit file serial number.	*/
#endif
#if __WORDSIZE == 32
    __mode_t st_mode;			/* File mode.  */
    __nlink_t st_nlink;			/* Link count.  */
#else
    __nlink_t st_nlink;		/* Link count.  */
    __mode_t st_mode;		/* File mode.  */
#endif
    __uid_t st_uid;		/* User ID of the file's owner.	*/
    __gid_t st_gid;		/* Group ID of the file's group.*/
#if __WORDSIZE == 64
    int pad0;
#endif
    __dev_t st_rdev;		/* Device number, if device.  */

    unsigned short int __pad2;

不要慌，st_rdev 就是需要裝置檔案對應的裝置號了。

要得到主裝置號&此裝置號，需要使用<linux/kdev_t.h>中定義的巨集：

MAJOR() 得到主裝置號

MINOR() 得到次裝置號
