PARAM(3) BSD Library Functions Manual PARAM(3)
NAME
param -- common parameters
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
size
MAX(size a, size b);
size
MIN(size a, size b);
DESCRIPTION
The <sys/param.h> header includes some common definitions and macros specific to NetBSD. The header is perhaps best characterized as a ker-
nel equivalent of <sys/types.h>. The following list summarizes the provided definitions and macros.
o First and foremost, the header defines the version of NetBSD. This is defined as
#define __NetBSD_Version__ 599004800 /* 5.99.48 */
The general format is ``MMmmrrpp00'', where 'MM' and 'mm' denote the major and minor version, respectively, 'rr' is provided for
compatibility, and 'pp' defines the patch level.
o Common utility macros such as MAX() and MIN() as well as more specific macros such as STACK(9), ctod(9), mstohz(9), roundup(9), and
setbit(9).
o Numerous miscellaneous definitions such as limits, constants for the kernel memoryallocators(9), scale factors used by the sched-
uler, kthread(9) priorities, and many others.
o Definitions provided for historical and compatibility reasons. Examples range from definitions such as ``#define BSD'' to old pri-
ority levels used in the kernel.

A <param.h> header appeared already in the Version 4 AT&T UNIX.
