NAME
       uname - get system info

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/utsname.h>

       int uname(struct utsname *name)

DESCRIPTION
       Uname() fills a struct utsname with system information.  This structure
       is described in <sys/utsname.h> as follows:

       struct utsname {
           char  sysname[15+1];           /* System name */
           char  nodename[255+1];         /* Node/Network name */
           char  release[11+1];           /* O.S. release */
           char  version[7+1];            /* O.S. version */
           char  machine[11+1];           /* Machine hardware */
           char  arch[11+1];              /* Architecture */
       };

       The strings are always null terminated,  and  may  be  of  a  different
       length then shown here.  The first five are required by POSIX, the last
       is MINIX 3 specific.
