The argument s is a socket that has been created with socket(2), bound to an address with bind(2), and is listening for connections after a listen(2). The accept() argument extracts the first connecti...
The access() function checks the accessibility of the file named by path for the access permissions indicated by mode. The value of mode is the bitwise inclusive OR of the access permissions to be che...
The acct() call enables or disables the collection of system accounting records. If file is NULL, accounting is disabled. If file is an existing, null-terminated pathname, record collection is enabled...
adjtime() makes small adjustments to the system time, as returned by gettimeofday(2), advancing or retarding it by the time specified by the timeval delta. If delta is negative, the clock is slowed do...
amd64_get_ioperm() copies the current I/O permission bitmap into the memory referenced by iomap. amd64_set_ioperm() sets the I/O permission bitmap from the data pointed to by iomap. This call is restr...
amd64_get_ldt() will return the list of amd64 descriptors that the process has in its LDT. amd64_set_ldt() will set a list of amd64 descriptors for the current process in its LDT. Both routines accept...
These functions provide an interface to the MTRR registers found on 686-class processors for controlling processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful for accessing devices such as video acce...
amd64_iopl() sets the amd64 I/O privilege level to the value specified by iopl. This call is restricted to the superuser. Note: Code using the amd64_iopl() function must be compiled using -lamd64.

bind() assigns a name to an unnamed socket. When a socket is created with socket(2) it exists in a name space (address family) but has no name assigned. bind() requests that name be assigned to the so...
The brk() and sbrk() functions are historical curiosities left over from earlier days before the advent of virtual memory management. The brk() function sets the break or lowest address of a process'...
The path argument points to the pathname of a directory. The chdir() function causes the named directory to become the current working directory, that is, the starting point for path searches of pathn...
The file whose name is given by path or referenced by the descriptor fd has its flags changed to flags. The flags specified are formed by OR'ing the following values UF_NODUMP Do not dump the file. U...
