QUOTA(2)            UNIX Programmer's Manual             QUOTA(2)

NAME
     quota - set quota parameters

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>

     quota(name, current, max)
     char *name;
     daddr_t current, max;

DESCRIPTION
     _N_a_m_e points to a null-terminated string naming a quota file;
     _c_u_r_r_e_n_t and _m_a_x are integers which describe the current and
     maximum usage in disk sectors (512-byte blocks).

     This system call is used for setting quota information and
     may be executed only by the super-user.

ERRORS
     _Q_u_o_t_a will fail and no quota node will be created if:

     [EINVAL]            The path name contains a non-ASCII byte.

     [EPERM]             The process's effective user ID is not
                         the super-user.

     [ENOTDIR]           A component of the path prefix is not a
                         directory.

     [EACCES]            A component of the path prefix denies
                         search permission.

     [EACCES]            The named file is not a quota node.

     [ENOENT]            The named file does not exist.

     [EISDIR]            The named file is a directory.

     [EROFS]             The directory in which the file is to be
                         created is on a read-only file system.

     [EFAULT]            _N_a_m_e points outside the process's allo-
                         cated address space.

     [ELOOP]             Too many symbolic links were encountered
                         in translating the path name.
