Linux Interrupts ( int86() funciton under borlandc)

[Tayfun Özdemir]

Hello there,
I am semi pro system programmer and i am trying to learn programing under
Linux (Using MS at school). I just wonder if there is a way to call software
interrupts under Linux. Like int86() function under borland c or int under
ASM. If so, can you please give a referance where can i find which
interrupt's which function does IO things (It would be better if you could
give me a web site or eBook that explains every interrupt :-))) ).
Thank you so much.

If you look for a way a user application may request stuff from kernel ?
Then the ones mention under chapter 2 in the manual are the ones
available.

This is one of the great strengths with un*x, a few well documented
system calls is avaliable. Everything else is done in userland.
