Thanks for the reply.I am actually looking for system calls man pages for kernel 2.6.34 version.So far I have found that the man pages are maintained separately from kernel. In this way it is uncertain whether the behavior described by man pages applies to this specific version or not.This is particularly true for the errors code returned by kernel.
