NAME
posixoptions - optional parts of the POSIX standardDESCRIPTION
The POSIX standard (the information below is from POSIX.1-2001) describes a set of behaviors and interfaces for a compliant system. However, many interfaces are optional and there are feature test macros to test the availability of interfaces at compile time, and functions sysconf(3), fpathconf(3), pathconf(3), confstr(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(3) 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.
