An LSB-conforming implementation shall support some base libraries which provide interfaces for accessing the operating system, processor and other hardware in the system.

Interfaces that are unique to the IA32 platform are defined here. This section should be used in conjunction with the corresponding section in the Linux Standard Base Specification.

Interfaces for libc
