The Linux API is composed out of the system call interface of the Linux kernel, the GNU C Library (by GNU), libcgroup, [1] libdrm, libalsa and libevdev [2] (by freedesktop.org). Linux API vs. POSIX API. The Linux API includes the kernel–user space API, which allows code in user space to access system resources and services of the Linux kernel ...

The Linux kernel is a free and open source, ... The Linux kernel System Call Interface (SCI), aims to be POSIX/SUS-compatible [196] Process scheduling subsystem
A high-level comparison of in-kernel and kernel-to-userspace APIs and ABIs The Linux kernel and GNU C Library define the Linux API. After compilation, the binaries offer an ABI. Keeping this ABI stable over a long time is important for ISVs. In computer software, an application binary interface (ABI) is an interface between two binary program ...
The x32 ABI is an application binary interface (ABI) and one of the interfaces of the Linux kernel.The x32 ABI provides 32-bit integers, long and pointers on Intel and AMD 64-bit hardware.
Kernel mode Linux kernel: stat, splice, dup, read, open, ioctl, write, mmap, close, exit, etc. (about 380 system calls) The Linux kernel System Call Interface (SCI), aims to be POSIX/SUS-compatible [3] Process scheduling subsystem IPC subsystem Memory management subsystem Virtual files subsystem Networking subsystem
On Linux and all Unix-like operating systems, the utilities ifconfig and the newer ip (from the iproute2-bundle) are used to configure IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.11 hardware. These utilities configure the kernel directly and the configuration is applied immediately. After boot-up, the user is required to configure them again.
The Linux-IO Target (LIO) is an open-source Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) target implementation included with the Linux kernel. [1]Unlike initiators, which begin sessions, LIO functions as a target, presenting one or more Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs) to a SCSI initiator, receiving SCSI commands, and managing the input/output data transfers.
