 shmdt(2) -- map/unmap shared memory
    shmat() maps the shared memory segment associated with the shared memory identifier shmid into the address space of the calling process. The address at which the segment is mapped is determined by the...
 shmget(2) -- get shared memory area identifier
    shmget() returns the shared memory identifier associated with the key key. A shared memory segment is created if either key is equal to IPC_PRIVATE, or key does not have a shared memory segment identi...
 shutdown(2) -- shut down part of a full-duplex connection
    The shutdown() call causes all or part of a full-duplex connection on the socket associated with s to be shut down. If how is SHUT_RD, further receives will be disallowed. If how is SHUT_WR, further s...
 sigaction(2) -- software signal facilities
    The system defines a set of signals that may be delivered to a process. Signal delivery resembles the occurrence of a hardware interrupt: the signal is normally blocked from further occurrence, the cu...
 sigaltstack(2) -- set and/or get signal stack context
    sigaltstack() allows users to define an alternate stack on which signals are to be processed. If ss is non-zero, it specifies a pointer to and the size of a signal stack on which to deliver signals, a...
 sigpending(2) -- get pending signals
    The sigpending function returns a mask of the signals pending for delivery to the calling process in the location indicated by set. Signals may be pending because they are currently masked, or transie...
 sigprocmask(2) -- manipulate current signal mask
    The sigprocmask() function examines and/or changes the current signal mask (those signals that are blocked from delivery). Signals are blocked if they are members of the current signal mask set. If se...
 sigreturn(2) -- return from signal
    sigreturn() allows users to atomically unmask, switch stacks, and return from a signal context. The processes signal mask and stack status are restored from the context. The system call does not retur...
 sigstack(2) -- set and/or get signal stack context
    The sigstack() function has been deprecated in favor of the interface described in sigaltstack(2).
 sigsuspend(2) -- atomically release blocked signals and wait for interrupt
    sigsuspend() temporarily changes the blocked signal mask to the set to which sigmask points, and then waits for a signal to arrive; on return the previous set of masked signals is restored. The signal...
 socket(2) -- create an endpoint for communication
    socket() creates an endpoint for communication and returns a descriptor. The domain parameter specifies a communications domain within which communication will take place; this selects the protocol fa...
 socketpair(2) -- create a pair of connected sockets
    The socketpair() call creates an unnamed pair of connected sockets in the specified domain d, of the specified type, and using the optionally specified protocol. The descriptors used in referencing th...
 stat(2) -- get file status
    The stat() function obtains information about the file pointed to by path. Read, write, or execute permission of the named file is not required, but all directories listed in the path name leading to ...
 statfs(2) -- get file system statistics
    statfs() returns information about a mounted file system. path is the path name of any file within the mounted file system. buf is a pointer to a statfs structure defined as follows: typedef struct { ...
 swapctl(2) -- modify swap configuration
    The swapctl() function is used to add and delete swap devices, and modify their configuration. The cmd parameter specifies the operation to be performed. The arg and misc parameters have different mea...
