18 .sp
19 .LP
20 The \fBgetisax()\fR function sets the vector \fIarray\fR of \fIn\fR 32-bit
21 integers to contain the bits from the \fBAV\fR_\fIxxx\fR_\fIyyy\fR namespace of
22 the given instruction set architecture.
23 .sp
24 .LP
25 Values for \fBAV\fR_\fIxxx\fR_\fIyyy\fR for SPARC and SPARCV9, and their
26 associated descriptions, can be found in \fB<sys/auxv_SPARC.h>\fR.
27 .sp
28 .LP
29 Values for \fBAV\fR_\fIxxx\fR_\fIyyy\fR for i386 and AMD64, and their
30 associated descriptions, can be found in \fB<sys/auxv_386.h>\fR.
31 .SH RETURN VALUES
32 .sp
33 .LP
34 The \fBgetisax()\fR function returns the number of array elements that contain
35 non-zero values.
36 .SH EXAMPLES
37 .LP
38 \fBExample 1 \fRUse \fBgetisax()\fR to determine if the SSE2 instruction set is
39 present.

42 In the following example, if the message is written, the SSE2 instruction set
43 is present and fully supportred by the operating system.
