Notes

The fields of the utsname structure are initialized as follows:

sysname “eCos”

nodename “” (gethostname() is currently not available)

release

Major version number of the kernel

version

Minor version number of the kernel

machine “”

(Requires some config tool changes)

The

sizes

of

these

strings

are

defined

by

CYG_POSIX_UTSNAME_LENGTH

and

CYG_POSIX_UTSNAME_NODENAME_LENGTH. The latter defaults to the value of the former, but may
also be set independently to accommodate a longer node name.

The time() function is currently implemented in the C library.

A

set

of

environment

strings

may

be

defined

at

configuration

time

with

the

CYGDAT_LIBC_DEFAULT_ENVIRONMENT option. The application may also define an environment by
direct assignment to the environ variable.

At present isatty() assumes that any character device is a tty and that all other devices are not ttys. Since the

only kind of device that eCos currently supports is serial character devices, this is an adequate distinction.
