GETPAGESIZE(3C) GETPAGESIZE(3C)
NAME
getpagesize - get system page size
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
int getpagesize(void);
DESCRIPTION
The getpagesize() function returns the number of bytes in a page. Page
granularity is the granularity of many of the memory management calls.
The page size is a system page size and need not be the same as the
underlying hardware page size.
The getpagesize() function is equivalent to sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE) and
sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE). See sysconf(3C).
RETURN VALUES
The getpagesize() function returns the current page size.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
USAGE
The value returned by getpagesize() need not be the minimum value that
malloc(3C) can allocate. Moreover, the application cannot assume that
an object of this size can be allocated with malloc().
