说明

getconf retrieves system configuration variables defined by POSIX and system-specific extensions. These values represent system limits and capabilities that applications can query to adapt their behavior. Variables fall into two categories: system-wide values (like CHILD_MAX, PAGE_SIZE) and pathname-specific values (like PATH_MAX, NAME_MAX) that may vary by filesystem. This is useful for shell scripts that need to query system limits without hardcoding values, ensuring portability across different systems.
