Classes

Type	Reason
Catalog	Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.
PeerCred	Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.
Syscall	The Syscall wrapper class makes it possible to execute the defined system calls. For more information on any of these system calls, the linux manual system (man) has exhaustive information on each syscall in section two: 'man 2 chdir' (or often 'man chdir(2)') for example would give information related to chdir, including error codes, which are in general not listed here.
UnixEndPoint	A System.Net.EndPoint implementation for UNIX sockets as network addresses..

Structs

Type	Reason
Stat	Every file has a unique INODE data structure. Mono's managed representation is the Stat struct. the Syscall.stat and Syscall.lstat methods return the Stat struct as an output parameter.

Delegates

Type	Reason
Syscall.sighandler_t	Documentation for this section has not yet been entered.
