Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 1/4] syscalls: Create unified partial table for all archs
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 23:47:02 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260727-tonyk-syscall_table-v2-1-95d4f1ee471f@igalia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260727-tonyk-syscall_table-v2-0-95d4f1ee471f@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.
Signed-off-by: André Almeida <andrealmeid@igalia.com>
