You are going to have to be a lot more specific about this.
I have worked in several places where they use s shim layer to make 
Linux basic services work on freeBSD.
usually  a mix of functions, macros and inlines.
However you need to narrow down your questions a bit as the POSSIBLE 
scope of your question is too large for anyone to attempt an answer.

Remember that both systems are POSIX inspired so outside the kernel 
there are many more simlarities than one might be led to expect,
  but you need to be way more specific.
It's even possible to write kernel code to run on both, but it is 
usually domain specific.
