From iOS programming to Linux system programming

Hello.
I like Linux and C programming language. Allways wanted to understand kernel and become a Linux system programmer. And I also like Objective-C and iOS. These two programming areas have relations:
1. Linux and iOS are UNIX-like systems, POSIX compliant.
2. It is useful to know C language for iOS programmer.

And I have these questions:
1) Is it useful for usual iOS web/GUI/game programmer to know UNIX/FreeBSD programming?
2) Is it useful for usual iOS web/GUI/game programmer to know iOS kernel and iOS system programming?
3) Is it difficult to transit from iOS programming to Linux system programming?

UNIMPLEMENTED(2)					     Linux Programmer's Manual						  UNIMPLEMENTED(2)

NAME
afs_syscall, break, ftime, gtty, lock, mpx, phys, prof, profil, stty, ulimit - unimplemented system calls SYNOPSIS
Unimplemented system calls. DESCRIPTION
These system calls are not implemented in the Linux 2.0 kernel. RETURN VALUE
These system calls always return -1 and set errno to ENOSYS. NOTES
Note that ftime(3), profil(3) and ulimit(3) are implemented as library functions. Some system calls, like ioperm(2), iopl(2), ptrace(2) and vm86(2) only exist on certain architectures. Some system calls, like ipc(2) and {create,init,delete}_module(2) only exist when the Linux kernel was built with support for them. SEE ALSO
