If no options are given, 'uname' acts as if the '-s' option were given. Synopsis: uname [OPTION]... If multiple options or '-a' are given, the selected information is printed in this order: KERNEL-NAME NODENAME KERNEL-RELEASE KERNEL-VERSION MACHINE PROCESSOR HARDWARE-PLATFORM OPERATING-SYSTEM The information may contain internal spaces, so such output cannot be parsed reliably. In the following example, RELEASE is '2.2.18ss.e820-bda652a #4 SMP Tue Jun 5 11:24:08 PDT 2001': uname -a => Linux dumdum 2.2.18 #4 SMP Tue Jun 5 11:24:08 PDT 2001 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux The program accepts the following options. Also see *note Common options::. '-a' '--all' Print all of the below information, except omit the processor type and the hardware platform name if they are unknown. '-i' '--hardware-platform' Print the hardware platform name (sometimes called the hardware implementation). Print 'unknown' if this information is not available. Note this is non-portable (even across GNU/Linux distributions). '-m' '--machine' Print the machine hardware name (sometimes called the hardware class or hardware type). '-n' '--nodename' Print the network node hostname. '-p' '--processor' Print the processor type (sometimes called the instruction set architecture or ISA). Print 'unknown' if this information is not available. Note this is non-portable (even across GNU/Linux distributions). '-o' '--operating-system' Print the name of the operating system. '-r' '--kernel-release' Print the kernel release. '-s' '--kernel-name' Print the kernel name. POSIX 1003.1-2001 (*note Standards conformance::) calls this "the implementation of the operating system", because the POSIX specification itself has no notion of "kernel". The kernel name might be the same as the operating system name printed by the '-o' or '--operating-system' option, but it might differ. Some operating systems (e.g., FreeBSD, HP-UX) have the same name as their underlying kernels; others (e.g., GNU/Linux, Solaris) do not. '-v' '--kernel-version' Print the kernel version. An exit status of zero indicates success, and a nonzero value indicates failure.
