getpagesize(3bsd) (BSD System Compatibility)


getpagesize -- (BSD) get system page size

Synopsis

   /usr/ucb/cc [flag . . . ] file . . . 
   

int getpagesize(VOID);

Description

getpagesize returns the number of bytes in a page. This is useful because many of the memory management system calls return values in terms of a page-size aligned boundary.

The page size is a system page size and need not be the same as the underlying hardware page size.
