+// Package syscall contains an interface to the low-level operating system
+// primitives.  The details vary depending on the underlying system, and
+// by default, godoc will display the syscall documentation for the current
+// system.  If you want godoc to display syscall documentation for another
+// system, set $GOOS and $GOARCH to the desired system.  For example, if
+// you want to view documentation for freebsd/arm on linux/amd64, set $GOOS
+// to freebsd and $GOARCH to arm.
+// The primary use of syscall is inside other packages that provide a more
+// portable interface to the system, such as "os", "time" and "net".  Use
+// those packages rather than this one if you can.
+// For details of the functions and data types in this package consult
+// the manuals for the appropriate operating system.
+// These calls return err == nil to indicate success; otherwise
+// err is an operating system error describing the failure.
+// On most systems, that error has type syscall.Errno.
+//
+// NOTE: This package is locked down. Code outside the standard
+// Go repository should be migrated to use the corresponding
+// package in the go.sys subrepository. That is also where updates
+// required by new systems or versions should be applied.
+// See https://golang.org/s/go1.4-syscall for more information.
