GETHOSTID(3)             BSD Library Functions Manual             GETHOSTID(3)

NAME
     gethostid, sethostid -- get/set unique identifier of current host

LIBRARY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <unistd.h>

     long
     gethostid(void);

     void
     sethostid(long hostid);

DESCRIPTION
     The sethostid() function establishes a 32-bit identifier for the current processor.  The id, intended
     to be unique among all UNIX systems in existence, is normally a DARPA Internet address for the local
     machine.  This call is allowed only to the super-user and is normally performed at boot time.

     The gethostid() function returns the 32-bit identifier for the current processor.

     This function has been deprecated.  The hostid should be set or retrieved by use of sysctl(3).

SEE ALSO
     gethostname(3), sysctl(3), sysctl(8)

HISTORY
     The gethostid() and sethostid() syscalls appeared in 4.2BSD and were dropped in 4.4BSD.

BUGS
     32 bits for the identifier is too small.
