Sys¶

Usage

use Sys;

Support for low-level programming and system calls.

This module is for low-level programming. It provides Chapel versions of many POSIX/Linux C library or system calls. For documentation on these system calls and constants, please see your system's manual pages.

Each of the functions in this file provides the same functionality as the corresponding function without the sys_ prefix, except that the sys_ versions all return an error code (of type err_t) and return any other values (such as how much was read) through an out argument.

For example, you can find more about the mmap call with:

man mmap

The call available here, sys_mmap, always returns an error code (or 0 for no error). The pointer value normally returned by mmap will be returned through the final ret_out argument.
