Process parameters.

These values correspond to sysconf in POSIX, and the auxv array in Linux. Despite the POSIX name “sysconf”, these aren’t system configuration parameters; they’re process configuration parameters, as they may differ between different processes on the same system.

Functions

sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK)—Returns the process’ clock ticks per second.

getauxval(AT_EXECFN)—Returns the Linux “execfn” string.

(getauxval(AT_HWCAP), getauxval(AT_HWCAP2)—Returns the Linux “hwcap” data.

sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE)—Returns the process’ page size.
