List available kernel functions with descriptions.

[dspfun]

How do you list all the available kernel function with a brief
description, available in a linux system?

Say that I'm used to use libc in user space and then would like to see
if any of these functions have kernel equivalences when I write kernel
space code?

I beleive 'apropos' will not cover all the functions, since I tried
'apropos printk' for example, and apropos didn't find it.

Sorry, probably wrong newsgroup.

Sorry, probably wrong newsgroup.

Definitely the wrong group, but I at least will accept your apology (I'm
sure most others will as well).

If you have any questions about C (rather than gcc extensions or the
Linux kernel) you will find plenty of help here. Have a look at the
comp.lang.c FAQ for lots of useful information and
http://clc-wiki.net/wiki/intro_to_clc for information about this group.
