Under the /usr/include directory in Linux i entered the command: find -type f -name unistd.h which gave the following output:

./unistd.h ./linux/unistd.h ./asm-generic/unistd.h ./bits/unistd.h ./asm/unistd.h ./sys/unistd.h

my question is, what is the purpose of each unistd.h, since there is only one definiton of that file in the single unix specification ?

Thanks in advance.
