A Java incubator project 'Java Native Access' looks promising :

Can we include LGPL jar in Hadoop?
From examples, code for accessing atol() from libc looks very simple :

We might need to invoke this for a lot of blocks at run time.
The use case is that datanode needs to know if a block is also
linked by a back up (after start-dfs.sh -upgrade).
The current use case is when we want to update block metadata when
datanode verifies a block (HADOOP-2012). Shell command might fine
for this. Later this might be used for appends.

I think you'd need to exec a shell command and parse the output.
You could add this to FileUtil.java...
