Linux System Calls Portability Guide
According to the asmutils-0.14 there are 46 system
calls the names of which are common to the
LINUX (2.2), FREEBSD, NETBSD, OPENBSD, BEOS and ATHEOS
operating systems. Some more can be emulated. - I have no access to other systems,
thus didn't verify functional aequivalence. Pse, give me a rsp.
notice if you know of any such information.
