MB_LEN_MAX(3)              Linux Programmer's Manual             MB_LEN_MAX(3)
NAME
       MB_LEN_MAX - maximum multibyte length of a character across all locales
SYNOPSIS
       #include <limits.h>
DESCRIPTION
       The MB_LEN_MAX macro is the maximum number of bytes needed to represent
       a single wide character, in any of the supported locales.
RETURN VALUE
       A constant integer greater than zero.
CONFORMING TO
       POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C99.
NOTES
       The entities MB_LEN_MAX and sizeof(wchar_t) are totally unrelated.   In
       glibc,  MB_LEN_MAX  is  typically  16 (6 in glibc versions earlier than
       2.2), while sizeof(wchar_t) is 4.
