Establishes a standard Ada language binding to POSIX.1, as amended by POSIX.1b, POSIX.1c, and POSIX.1i (base standards). The base standards define C-language interfaces to operate system services. This standard defines interfaces by which the same operating system services may be accessed from the Ada programming language. The aim of this standard is to support application portability at the Ada source code level, and is intended to be used by both application developers and system implementors.
