Hi,
Is there a resource/book where we can find Linux APIs with explanation on the lines of MSDN or docs.oracle for Java.
I am developing an application and I need to find APIs extended by Linux for file system and cryptography.
Thanks !

I'm curious - before you typed "Linux API Manual" into at least two forum title fields, did you try typing it into a search engine?
I don't really understand the question I guess. Are you looking for documentation on how to access the Linux syscalls via Java? I believe they syscall numbers are generally stored in /usr/include/asm/unistd.h. Perhaps this website has the information you're looking for? http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/1681/invoke-syscalls-from-java
If not, isn't Java Platform SE 7 valid, regardless of your OS?

Ofcourse I did and I didn't find anything close to what i am looking for. Search either listed some loosely written POSIX functions/API or some Kernel API relevant for "Driver Driver Developers".I'm curious - before you typed "Linux API Manual" into at least two forum title fields, did you try typing it into a search engine?
yes, "MAN" pages is the only source of information that I am relying on but the way they are structured its not easy to find information as in the case of MSDN/Oracle (java). So I thought I will list the question here.
