For example:
int socket(int domain, int type, int protocol);
int bind(int s, const struct sockaddr *addr, socklen_t addrlen);

Browsing through your WWW CVS repository I'm just finding sources for MAN pages in directory / src / lib / libc / sys: access.2, connect.2 and so on. But where are the C sources of these calls? Or are the sources of these system calls not available?

C functions from section 2 of the manpages are "system calls", which means that a stub function is generated in libc via makesyscalls.sh, but most of the work in done in the kernel:
