/** @fn  uname(struct utsname *buf)
@param buf
@return   Upon successful completion, a non-negative value is returned. Otherwise, 
-1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

@code
 sysname Name of the operating system implementation.
 nodename Network name of this machine.
 release Release level of the operating system.
 version Version level of the operating system.
 machine Machine hardware platform.

@endcode
  The uname function stores NULL -terminated strings of information identifying the current system 
into the structure referenced by name .

 The utsname structure is defined in the \#include \<sys/utsname.h\> header file, and contains 
  the following members: sysname Name of the operating system implementation. nodename Network name of this machine. release Release level of the operating system. version Version level of the operating system. machine Machine hardware platform.

Examples:
@code
#include <sys/utsname.h>
#include<stdio.h>
int test_uname()
{
    int retVal;
    struct utsname name ;
    retVal = uname( &name; );
    if( !retVal )       
    {
      printf("Sysname: %s
 Nodename:%s
 Release:
      %s
Version: %s
Machine:%s
");
      printf("uname passed");
      return 0;
    }
    else
    {
      printf("failed");
      return -1;
    }
}

@endcode
 Output
@code
Sysname: Symbian
Nodename: localhost
Release:
Version: 2:0:1055
Machine:
