+.Ft int
+.Fn fhstatfs "const fhandle_t *fhp" "struct statfs *buf"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+These functions provide a means to access a file given the file handle
+.Fa fhp.
+As this method bypasses directory access restrictions, these calls are
+restricted to the superuser.
+.Pp
+.Fn fhopen
+opens the file referenced by
+.Fa fhp
+for reading and/or writing as specified by the argument
+.Fa flags
+and returns the file descriptor to the calling process. The
+.Fa flags
+are specified by
+.Em or Ns 'ing
+together the flags used for the
+.Xr open 2
+call. All said flags are valid except for
+.Dv O_CREAT .
+.Pp
+.Fn fhstat
+and
+.Fn fhstatfs
+provide the functionality of the
+.Xr fstat 2
+and
+.Xr fstatfs 2
+calls except that they return information for the file refered to by
+.Fa fhp
+rather than an open file.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+Upon successful completion,
+.Fn fhopen
+returns the file descriptor for the opened file, while
+.Fn fhstat
+and
+.Fn fhstatfs
+return 0.
+Otherwise, -1 is returned and
+.Va errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.Sh ERRORS
+In addition to the errors returned by
+.Xr open 2 ,
+.Xr fstat 2 ,
+and
+.Xr fstatfs 2
