The branch main has been updated by brooks: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=39a15d747007b934cc515d6151595055d8262828 commit 39a15d747007b934cc515d6151595055d8262828 Author: Brooks Davis <brooks@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2024-03-07 00:59:07 +0000 Commit: Brooks Davis <brooks@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2024-03-07 00:59:07 +0000 syscall(2): make i386 less of an outlier Unlike other architectures, i386 only defined syscall() and not _syscall() or __sys_syscall(). The syscall() function then invoked the desired system call directly rather than invoking syscall(2). Keep the latter as it's marginally more efficent, but also create the conventional _syscall() and __sys_syscall() stubs. This avoids the need to special case syscall(2) in the symbol list generation in libsys.
