If it's under /usr/src/linux, it's part of the kernel source. I can't see
why you'd want to go there unless you're writing a device driver.
For other Unix/Linux/GNU specific functions, refer to the appropriate
manpages. If you're looking for dead tree documentation, I'd recommend
Stevens' Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment (available locally as
a reprint), or one of the O'Reilly unix/C programming books by David Curry.

There is no equivalent, since it's a DOS-ism. If you want to control the
terminal, your best bet is to use a curses-compatible library (e.g.
ncurses). I typically advise against it, however.
