I have no comment on the functionality. But "xstat" is probably a poor choice of name.
In AIX 7.1 the (similar) function is called statxat instead of xstat. The API isn't exactly the same, but it's the same basic idea. Might be worth looking at, not merely to see whether the API should be the same, but also to borrow good ideas even if not.
