5 // Package syscall contains an interface to the low-level operating system
6 // primitives. The details vary depending on the underlying system, and
7 // by default, godoc will display the syscall documentation for the current
8 // system. If you want godoc to display syscall documentation for another
9 // system, set $GOOS and $GOARCH to the desired system. For example, if
10 // you want to view documentation for freebsd/arm on linux/amd64, set $GOOS
11 // to freebsd and $GOARCH to arm.
12 // The primary use of syscall is inside other packages that provide a more
13 // portable interface to the system, such as "os", "time" and "net". Use
14 // those packages rather than this one if you can.
15 // For details of the functions and data types in this package consult
16 // the manuals for the appropriate operating system.
17 // These calls return err == nil to indicate success; otherwise
18 // err is an operating system error describing the failure.
19 // On most systems, that error has type syscall.Errno.
21 // Deprecated: this package is locked down. Callers should use the
22 // corresponding package in the golang.org/x/sys repository instead.
23 // That is also where updates required by new systems or versions
24 // should be applied. See https://golang.org/s/go1.4-syscall for more
