The "os" stands for OS-awareness, not for specific things about
the OS.  E.g.,

"info os processes" prints the list of all running processes
under linux.  It works like "shell ps" on the target, just
like Jerome mentioned.  Here's what we have in one of our
local trees:

(top-gdb) info os 
Type       Description 
processes  Listing of all processes                                                                                                                           
procgroups Listing of all process groups                                                                                                                      
threads    Listing of all threads                                                                                                                             
files      Listing of all file descriptions                                                                                                                   
sockets    Listing of all internet-domain sockets                                                                                                             
shm        Listing of all shared-memory regions                                                                                                               
semaphores Listing of all semaphores                                                                                                                          
msg        Listing of all message queues 
modules    Listing of all loaded kernel modules 

(and a corresponding -info-os MI command, and corresponding
Eclipse/DSF support for listing all these tables, while
being completely agnostic of the tables it is actually
showing.)
