Yes, the type of the st_ino field is ino_t.

I am not sure in which #include file the typedef for
ino_t appears or which fundamental type (i.e., int,
unsigned int, long, ...) it is defined as.  If you
need a variable tto hold the value of st_ino, you
should use one of ttype ino_t.  That way your code
will work no matter what ino_t is typedef'd as.
