получить значения конфигурации (get configuration values)

Пролог (Prolog)

This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

Имя (Name)

getconf — get configuration values

Синопсис (Synopsis)

getconf [-v specification] system_var

getconf [-v specification] path_var pathname


Описание (Description)

In the first synopsis form, the getconf utility shall write to
       the standard output the value of the variable specified by the
       system_var operand.

In the second synopsis form, the getconf utility shall write to the standard output the value of the variable specified by the path_var operand for the path specified by the pathname operand.

The value of each configuration variable shall be determined as if it were obtained by calling the function from which it is defined to be available by this volume of POSIX.1‐2017 or by the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1‐2017 (see the OPERANDS section). The value shall reflect conditions in the current operating environment.


Параметры (Options)

The getconf utility shall conform to the Base Definitions volume
       of POSIX.1‐2017, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines.

The following option shall be supported:

-v specification Indicate a specific specification and version for which configuration variables shall be determined. If this option is not specified, the values returned correspond to an implementation default conforming compilation environment.

If the command:

getconf _POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFF32

does not write "-1\n" or "undefined\n" to standard output, then commands of the form:

getconf -v POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFF32 ...

determine values for configuration variables corresponding to the POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFF32 compilation environment specified in c99(1p), the EXTENDED DESCRIPTION.

If the command:

getconf _POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFFBIG

does not write "-1\n" or "undefined\n" to standard output, then commands of the form:

getconf -v POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFFBIG ...

determine values for configuration variables corresponding to the POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFFBIG compilation environment specified in c99(1p), the EXTENDED DESCRIPTION.

If the command:

getconf _POSIX_V7_LP64_OFF64

does not write "-1\n" or "undefined\n" to standard output, then commands of the form:

getconf -v POSIX_V7_LP64_OFF64 ...

determine values for configuration variables corresponding to the POSIX_V7_LP64_OFF64 compilation environment specified in c99(1p), the EXTENDED DESCRIPTION.

If the command:

getconf _POSIX_V7_LPBIG_OFFBIG

does not write "-1\n" or "undefined\n" to standard output, then commands of the form:

getconf -v POSIX_V7_LPBIG_OFFBIG ...

determine values for configuration variables corresponding to the POSIX_V7_LPBIG_OFFBIG compilation environment specified in c99(1p), the EXTENDED DESCRIPTION.


Операнды (Operands)

The following operands shall be supported:

path_var A name of a configuration variable. All of the variables in the Variable column of the table in the DESCRIPTION of the fpathconf() function defined in the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1‐2017, without the enclosing braces, shall be supported. The implementation may add other local variables.

pathname A pathname for which the variable specified by path_var is to be determined.

system_var A name of a configuration variable. All of the following variables shall be supported:

* The names in the Variable column of the table in the DESCRIPTION of the sysconf() function in the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1‐2017, except for the entries corresponding to _SC_CLK_TCK, _SC_GETGR_R_SIZE_MAX, and _SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX, without the enclosing braces.

For compatibility with earlier versions, the following variable names shall also be supported: POSIX2_C_BIND POSIX2_C_DEV POSIX2_CHAR_TERM POSIX2_FORT_DEV POSIX2_FORT_RUN POSIX2_LOCALEDEF POSIX2_SW_DEV POSIX2_UPE POSIX2_VERSION

and shall be equivalent to the same name prefixed with an <underscore>. This requirement may be removed in a future version.

* The names of the symbolic constants used as the name argument of the confstr() function in the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1‐2017, without the _CS_ prefix.

* The names of the symbolic constants listed under the headings ``Maximum Values'' and ``Minimum Values'' in the description of the <limits.h> header in the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2017, without the enclosing braces.

For compatibility with earlier versions, the following variable names shall also be supported: POSIX2_BC_BASE_MAX POSIX2_BC_DIM_MAX POSIX2_BC_SCALE_MAX POSIX2_BC_STRING_MAX POSIX2_COLL_WEIGHTS_MAX POSIX2_EXPR_NEST_MAX POSIX2_LINE_MAX POSIX2_RE_DUP_MAX

and shall be equivalent to the same name prefixed with an <underscore>. This requirement may be removed in a future version.

The implementation may add other local values.


Стандартный ввод (Stdin)

Not used.

Входные файлы (Input files)

None.

Переменные окружения (Environment variables)

The following environment variables shall affect the execution of
       getconf:

LANG Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that are unset or null. (See the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1‐2017, Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables for the precedence of internationalization variables used to determine the values of locale categories.)

LC_ALL If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the other internationalization variables.

LC_CTYPE Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments).

LC_MESSAGES Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error.

NLSPATH Determine the location of message catalogs for the processing of LC_MESSAGES.


Асинхронные события (Asynchronous events)

Default.

Стандартный вывод (Stdout)

If the specified variable is defined on the system and its value
       is described to be available from the confstr() function defined
       in the System Interfaces volume of POSIX.1‐2017, its value shall
       be written in the following format:

"%s\n", <value>

Otherwise, if the specified variable is defined on the system, its value shall be written in the following format:

"%d\n", <value>

If the specified variable is valid, but is undefined on the system, getconf shall write using the following format:

"undefined\n"

If the variable name is invalid or an error occurs, nothing shall be written to standard output.


Стандартный вывод сообщений (Stderr)

The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic messages.

Выходные файлы (Output files)

None.

Расширенное описание (Extended description)

None.

Статус выхода (Exit)

The following exit values shall be returned:

0 The specified variable is valid and information about its current state was written successfully.

>0 An error occurred.


Последствия ошибок (Consequences of errors)

Default.

The following sections are informative.


Использование в приложениях (Application usage)

None.

Примеры (Examples)

The following example illustrates the value of {NGROUPS_MAX}:

getconf NGROUPS_MAX

The following example illustrates the value of {NAME_MAX} for a specific directory:

getconf NAME_MAX /usr

The following example shows how to deal more carefully with results that might be unspecified:

if value=$(getconf PATH_MAX /usr); then if [ "$value" = "undefined" ]; then echo PATH_MAX in /usr is indeterminate. else echo PATH_MAX in /usr is $value. fi else echo Error in getconf. fi


Обоснование (Rationale)

The original need for this utility, and for the confstr()
       function, was to provide a way of finding the configuration-
       defined default value for the PATH environment variable. Since
       PATH can be modified by the user to include directories that
       could contain utilities replacing the standard utilities, shell
       scripts need a way to determine the system-supplied PATH
       environment variable value that contains the correct search path
       for the standard utilities. It was later suggested that access to
       the other variables described in this volume of POSIX.1‐2017
       could also be useful to applications.

This functionality of getconf would not be adequately subsumed by another command such as:

grep var /etc/conf

because such a strategy would provide correct values for neither those variables that can vary at runtime, nor those that can vary depending on the path.

Early proposal versions of getconf specified exit status 1 when the specified variable was valid, but not defined on the system. The output string "undefined" is now used to specify this case with exit code 0 because so many things depend on an exit code of zero when an invoked utility is successful.
