| * This is for COMPATIBILITY with Linux/x86 only. Linux/Alpha system |
| * calls return an error indication in a3. This allows to return |
| * arbitrary 64bit values in v0 (because negative values are not |
| * mistaken as error numbers). However, C allows to return only one |
| * value so the interface below folds the error indication passed in |
| * a3 back into v0: it sets v0 to -errno if an error occurs. Thus, |
| * no negative 64bit numbers can be returned. To avoid this problem, |
| * use assembly stubs wherever possible/convenient. |
| * |
| * Usage: |
| * |
| * long syscall(syscall_number, arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5) |
| * |
| * syscall_number = the index of the system call we're invoking |
| * arg1-arg5 = up to 5 integer arguments to the system call |
| * |
| * We need to do some arg shifting: the kernel expects the |
| * syscall number in v0 and the first five args in a0-a4. |
