Subject: [PATCH RFC 1/4] syscalls: Create unified partial table for all archs
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 17:00:11 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260724-tonyk-syscall_table-v1-1-9c53188423da@igalia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260724-tonyk-syscall_table-v1-0-9c53188423da@igalia.com>

To take advantage of the subset of syscall numbers that are guaranteed to
be shared, create a new table and adapt generation scripts to use it. In
that way, every new syscall can be added to a single file.
