title: How to read vfat attributes of files in Linux using C
body: <p>I have a FAT filesystem mounted in Linux with the vfat driver. 
  I want to know how I would be able to read the vfat attributes of a file such as "hidden" and "read-only". </p>
  
  <p>Based on what I've read so far, if I use the <code>stat()</code> glibc command on a file, I would only be getting the file attributes listed here: 
  <a href="http://www.gnu.org/s/libc/manual/html_node/Attribute-Meanings.html#Attribute-Meanings" rel="noreferrer">http://www.gnu.org/s/libc/manual/html_node/Attribute-Meanings.html#Attribute-Meanings</a> </p>
  
  <p>These don't contain any vfat attributes however. Can anybody help?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
