-.SH VERSIONS
-The glibc version of
-.BR getdtablesize ()
-calls
-.BR getrlimit (2)
-and returns the current
-.B RLIMIT_NOFILE
-limit, or
-.B OPEN_MAX
-when that fails.
-.\" The libc4 and libc5 versions return
-.\" .B OPEN_MAX
-.\" (set to 256 since Linux 0.98.4).
-.PP
-Portable applications should employ
-.I sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX)
-instead of this call.
-.SH STANDARDS
-None.
-.SH HISTORY
-SVr4, 4.4BSD
-(first appeared in 4.2BSD).
