off_t stat::st_size

For regular files, the file size in bytes.

For symbolic links, the length in bytes of the pathname contained in the symbolic link. For a shared memory object, the length in bytes. For a typed memory object, the length in bytes. For other file types, the use of this field is unspecified.
