5// Package syscall contains an interface to the low-level operating system
6// primitives. The details vary depending on the underlying system.
7// Its primary use is inside other packages that provide a more portable
8// interface to the system, such as "os", "time" and "net". Use those
9// packages rather than this one if you can.
10// For details of the functions and data types in this package consult
11// the manuals for the appropriate operating system.
Ian Lance Taylor83ef2ed2011-12-12 15:37:11 -080012// These calls return err == nil to indicate success; otherwise
13// err is an operating system error describing the failure.
14// On most systems, that error has type syscall.Errno.
