+* UNIX is a trademark of Bell Laboratories.
+.FE
+This document summarizes the facilities
+provided by the 4.4BSD version of the UNIX\|* operating system.
+It does not attempt to act as a tutorial for use of the system
+nor does it attempt to explain or justify the design of the
+system facilities.
+It gives neither motivation nor implementation details,
+in favor of brevity.
+.PP
+The first section describes the basic kernel functions
+provided to a UNIX process: process naming and protection,
+memory management, software interrupts,
+object references (descriptors), time and statistics functions,
+and resource controls.
+These facilities, as well as facilities for
+bootstrap, shutdown and process accounting,
+are provided solely by the kernel.
+.PP
+The second section describes the standard system
+abstractions for
+files and file systems,
+communication,
+terminal handling,
+and process control and debugging.
+These facilities are implemented by the operating system or by
+network server processes.

+.sh "Notation and types
+.PP
+The notation used to describe system calls is a variant of a
+C language call, consisting of a prototype call followed by
+declaration of parameters and results.
+An additional keyword \fBresult\fP, not part of the normal C language,
+is used to indicate which of the declared entities receive results.
+As an example, consider the \fIread\fP call, as described in
+section 2.1:
+.DS
+cc = read(fd, buf, nbytes);
+result int cc; int fd; result char *buf; int nbytes;
+.DE
+The first line shows how the \fIread\fP routine is called, with
+three parameters.
+As shown on the second line \fIcc\fP is an integer and \fIread\fP also
+returns information in the parameter \fIbuf\fP.
+.PP
+Description of all error conditions arising from each system call
+is not provided here; they appear in the programmer's manual.
+In particular, when accessed from the C language,
+many calls return a characteristic \-1 value
+when an error occurs, returning the error code in the global variable
+\fIerrno\fP.
+Other languages may present errors in different ways.
+.PP
+A number of system standard types are defined in the include file
+.I <sys/types.h>
+and used in the specifications here and in many C programs.
+These include \fBcaddr_t\fP giving a memory address (typically as
+a character pointer),
+\fBoff_t\fP giving a file offset (typically as a long integer),
+and a set of unsigned types \fBu_char\fP, \fBu_short\fP, \fBu_int\fP
+and \fBu_long\fP, shorthand names for \fBunsigned char\fP, \fBunsigned
+short\fP, etc.
