POSIXOPTIONS(7) Linux Programmer’s Manual POSIXOPTIONS(7)
NAME
posixoptions - optional parts of the POSIX standard
DESCRIPTION
The POSIX standard (the information below is from POSIX 1003.1-2001) describes a
set of behaviours and interfaces for a compliant system. However, many interfaces
are optional and there are feature test macros to test the availability of inter-
faces at compile time, and functions sysconf(3), fpathconf(3), pathconf(3), conf-
str(3) to do this at run time. From shell scripts one can use getconf(1). For more
detail, see sysconf(3).
We give the name of the POSIX abbreviation, the option, the name of the sysconf()
parameter used to inquire about the option, and possibly a very short description.
Much more precise detail can be found in the POSIX standard itself, versions of
which can nowadays be accessed freely on the web.
