LSTAT is identical to STAT — Get file status, except that if path is a symbolic link, then the link itself is statted, not the file that it refers to.
The elements in VALUES are the same as described by STAT — Get file status.
This intrinsic is provided in both subroutine and function forms; however, only one form can be used in any given program unit.
GNU extension
