6.7 Extensions to sysinfo() System Call

The sysinfo() system call subcodes in the Oracle Solaris 10 and later versions enable applications to ascertain more information about the available instruction set architectures.

  • SI_ARCHITECTURE_32
  • SI_ARCHITECTURE_64
  • SI_ARCHITECTURE_K
  • SI_ARCHITECTURE_NATIVE

For example, the name of the 64-bit ABI available on the system (if any), is available by using the SI_ARCHITECTURE_64 subcode. For more information, see the sysinfo(2) man page.
