/* Compile-time symbols that this file uses:

   HAVE_PSTAT_GETDYNAMIC	Define this if your system has the
                                pstat_getdynamic function.  I think it
				is unique to HPUX9.  The best way to get the
				definition is through the AC_FUNC_GETLOADAVG
				macro that comes with autoconf 2.13 or newer.
				If that isn't an option, then just put
				AC_CHECK_FUNCS(pstat_getdynamic) in your
				configure.in file.
   FIXUP_KERNEL_SYMBOL_ADDR()	Adjust address in returned struct nlist.
   KERNEL_FILE			Pathname of the kernel to nlist.
   LDAV_CVT()			Scale the load average from the kernel.
				Returns a double.
   LDAV_SYMBOL			Name of kernel symbol giving load average.
   LOAD_AVE_TYPE		Type of the load average array in the kernel.
				Must be defined unless one of
				apollo, DGUX, NeXT, or UMAX is defined;
                                or we have libkstat;
				otherwise, no load average is available.
   NLIST_STRUCT			Include nlist.h, not a.out.h, and
				the nlist n_name element is a pointer,
				not an array.
   NLIST_NAME_UNION		struct nlist has an n_un member, not n_name.
   LINUX_LDAV_FILE		[__linux__]: File containing load averages.

   Specific system predefines this file uses, aside from setting
   default values if not emacs:

   apollo
   BSD				Real BSD, not just BSD-like.
   convex
   DGUX
   eunice			UNIX emulator under VMS.
   hpux
   __MSDOS__			No-op for MSDOS.
   NeXT
   sgi
   sequent			Sequent Dynix 3.x.x (BSD)
   _SEQUENT_			Sequent DYNIX/ptx 1.x.x (SYSV)
   sony_news                    NEWS-OS (works at least for 4.1C)
   UMAX
   UMAX4_3
   VMS
   WINDOWS32			No-op for Windows95/NT.
   __linux__			Linux: assumes /proc filesystem mounted.
   				Support from Michael K. Johnson.
   __NetBSD__			NetBSD: assumes /kern filesystem mounted.

   In addition, to avoid nesting many #ifdefs, we internally set
   LDAV_DONE to indicate that the load average has been computed.

   We also #define LDAV_PRIVILEGED if a program will require
   special installation to be able to call getloadavg.  */
