I've tried to google around but didn't find it. > >Best Regards In order to mantain ABI compatibility, for every kernel process (sys/proc.h:struct proc *) is provided a struct sysentvec pointer that contains information about syscall table to be handled. Normally (when FreeBSD interface is to be used) it points to sysent array of struct sysent entries. These structures rappresent associations between number of params for every syscall and syscall address (the discussion could be deeper but i guess you need just that), so you can do a little check at them to get what you want. bye, rookie reference: sys/sysent.h
