Имя (Name)

getpagesize - get memory page size

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <unistd.h>

       int getpagesize(void);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see
   feature_test_macros(7)):

       getpagesize():
           Since glibc 2.20:
               _DEFAULT_SOURCE || ! (_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L)
           Glibc 2.12 to 2.19:
               _BSD_SOURCE || ! (_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L)
           Before glibc 2.12:
               _BSD_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500

Описание (Description)

The function getpagesize() returns the number of bytes in a
       memory page, where "page" is a fixed-length block, the unit for
       memory allocation and file mapping performed by mmap(2).

Стандарты (Conforming to)

SVr4, 4.4BSD, SUSv2.  In SUSv2 the getpagesize() call is labeled
       LEGACY, and in POSIX.1-2001 it has been dropped; HP-UX does not
       have this call.

Примечание (Note)

Portable applications should employ sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) instead
       of getpagesize():

           #include <unistd.h>
           long sz = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);

       (Most systems allow the synonym _SC_PAGE_SIZE for _SC_PAGESIZE.)

       Whether getpagesize() is present as a Linux system call depends
       on the architecture.  If it is, it returns the kernel symbol
       PAGE_SIZE, whose value depends on the architecture and machine
       model.  Generally, one uses binaries that are dependent on the
       architecture but not on the machine model, in order to have a
       single binary distribution per architecture.  This means that a
       user program should not find PAGE_SIZE at compile time from a
       header file, but use an actual system call, at least for those
       architectures (like sun4) where this dependency exists.  Here
       glibc 2.0 fails because its getpagesize() returns a statically
       derived value, and does not use a system call.  Things are OK in
       glibc 2.1.
