 mlockall(2) -- lock (unlock) the address space of a process
    The mlockall system call locks into memory the physical pages associated with the address space of a process until the address space is unlocked, the process exits, or execs another program image. The...
 mmap(2) -- map files or devices into memory
    The mmap function causes the pages starting at addr and continuing for at most len bytes to be mapped from the object described by fd, starting at byte offset offset. If len is not a multiple of the p...
 mount(2) -- mount or dismount a file system
    The mount() function grafts a file system object onto the system file tree at the point dir. The argument data describes the file system object to be mounted. The argument type tells the kernel how to...
 mprotect(2) -- control the protection of pages
    The mprotect() system call changes the specified pages to have protection prot. Not all implementations will guarantee protection on a page basis; the granularity of protection changes may be as large...
 msgctl(2) -- message control operations
    The msgctl() system call performs control operations on the message queue specified by msqid. Each message queue has a msqid_ds structure associated with it which contains the following members: struc...
 msgget(2) -- get message queue identifier
    The msgget() system call returns the message queue identifier associated with key. A message queue identifier is a unique integer greater than zero. A message queue is created if either key is equal t...
 msgrcv(2) -- receive a message from a message queue
    The msgrcv() function receives a message from the message queue specified in msqid, and places it into the user-defined structure pointed to by msgp. This structure must contain a first field of type ...
 msgsnd(2) -- send a message to a message queue
    The msgsnd() function sends a message from the message queue specified in msqid. msgp points to a user-defined structure containing the message. This structure must contain a first field of type long ...
 msync(2) -- synchronize a mapped region
    The msync() system call writes all pages with shared modifications in the specified region of the process's address space back to permanent storage, and, if requested, invalidates cached data mapped ...
 munlock(2) -- lock (unlock) physical pages in memory
    The mlock system call locks into memory the physical pages associated with the virtual address range starting at addr for len bytes. The munlock call unlocks pages previously locked by one or more mlo...
 munlockall(2) -- lock (unlock) the address space of a process
    The mlockall system call locks into memory the physical pages associated with the address space of a process until the address space is unlocked, the process exits, or execs another program image. The...
 munmap(2) -- remove a mapping
    The munmap() system call deletes the mappings for the specified address range, and causes further references to addresses within the range to generate invalid memory references.
 nanosleep(2) -- high resolution sleep
    The nanosleep() suspends execution of the calling process until either the number of seconds and nanoseconds specified by rqtp have elapsed or a signal is delivered to the calling process and its acti...
 nfssvc(2) -- NFS services
    The nfssvc() function is used by the NFS daemons to pass information into and out of the kernel and also to enter the kernel as a server daemon. The flags argument consists of several bits that show w...
 ntp_adjtime(2) -- Network Time Protocol (NTP) daemon interface system calls
    The two system calls ntp_adjtime() and ntp_gettime() are the kernel interface to the Network Time Protocol (NTP) daemon ntpd(8). The ntp_adjtime() function is used by the NTP daemon to adjust the syst...
