I think you mean POSIX, not Linux.

Linux, stricty speaking, is just the kernel, and there are plenty of
UNIX-like systems (such as the various BSD-based systems, including
MacOS) that don't use the Linux kernel.  (The word "Linux" is also
commonly used to refer to operating systems that use the Linux kernel
-- and *please* let's not argue about whether that usage is correct.)
