dsl | Add text to the description saying that normal applications should not use syscall(). Add text to bugs saying that high bits of the syscall number may be masked. Fixes bug PR/11088
|
1.17 |
| 23-Nov-2007 |
dsl | Add a note about the difficulty of actually looking at the return value of __syscall() caused by ABIs (eg sparc) that don't pass the low bits of a 64 bit result in the same register as a 32 bit result.

1.9 |
| 31-Jan-2000 |
christos | branches: 1.9.6; Explain why we don't want to pass structs and unions to syscalls, and how to find the proper args for a syscall.
|
1.8 |
| 02-Dec-1999 |
kleink | Add a LIBRARY section to system call manual pages. While it's clear that the libraries contain stubs only (with minor exceptions a la pipe(2)), the purpose of this section is to provide linkage information.
|
1.7 |
| 22-Mar-1999 |
garbled | branches: 1.7.6; Last of the .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file, so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages. Wheee!
|
1.6 |
| 29-Aug-1998 |
lukem | first pass at fixing up capitalization of function names and arguments; ensure that each is correct with respect to the implementation, rather than being correct as per english.
|

cgd | note that __syscall() is prototyped to return a quad_t
|
1.4 |

cgd | merge with lite, keeping most local changes. clean up Ids
|
1.3 |
| 25-Nov-1993 |

|
