Folks,
I am interested in the use of multiple system call sets in Unix systems.
I recollect that Pyramid Technology machines in the 80's allowed users
and/or processes to select whether to use BSD or SYSV system call
semantics. Also, FreeBSD supports Linux system calls and SYSV in
emulation.
Does anyone know a good location (book, article, website) that discusses
this.
thanks
dayton

http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2002/08/08/irix.html is a serie of eight
articles about how NetBSD supports Irix system calls.
