Common Solaris system calls

This table lists some Solaris system calls that are commonly used by Oracle processes.

Note: Descriptions for other system calls can be obtained using the Unix man or whatis commands. Some man entries may vary slightly from the DTrace listing. For instance, the man page for pollsys is "man poll"; the man page for read64 is "man read".
