With the statfs API you can know the kind of File System a file (or
path) lives on.
The problem is that this API returns "hfs" for an HFS+ (journalized
should I add) volume.
Is there a quick way to know this is actually a HFS+ File System
(typical block size?).
Why do you care?
Typically you don't need this information directly, rather you want
to infer something from it.
Where possible, you should obtain the specific information you need
directly. There are a number of interfaces (pathconf(2), getattrlist
(2)) that exist to make this easier.
