setarch - Unix, Linux Command

NAME

setarch - change reported architecture in new program environment and set personality flags

SYNOPSIS

arch [options] [program [arguments]]

DESCRIPTION

setarch This utility currently only affects the output of uname -m. For example, on an AMD64 system, running ’setarch i386 program’ will cause ’program’ to see i686 (or other relevant arch) instead of x86_64 as machine type. It also allows to set various personality options.
