Extend struct sysvec with three new elements: sv_fetch_syscall_args - the method to fetch syscall arguments from usermode into struct syscall_args. The structure is machine-depended (this might be reconsidered after all architectures are converted). sv_set_syscall_retval - the method to set a return value for usermode from the syscall. It is a generalization of cpu_set_syscall_retval(9) to allow ABIs to override the way to set a return value. sv_syscallnames - the table of syscall names. Use sv_set_syscall_retval in kern_sigsuspend() instead of hardcoding the call to cpu_set_syscall_retval(). The new functions syscallenter(9) and syscallret(9) are provided that use sv_*syscall* pointers and contain the common repeated code from the syscall() implementations for the architecture-specific syscall trap handlers. Syscallenter() fetches arguments, calls syscall implementation from ABI sysent table, and set up return frame. The end of syscall bookkeeping is done by syscallret(). Take advantage of single place for MI syscall handling code and implement ptrace_lwpinfo pl_flags PL_FLAG_SCE, PL_FLAG_SCX and PL_FLAG_EXEC. The SCE and SCX flags notify the debugger that the thread is stopped at syscall entry or return point respectively. The EXEC flag augments SCX and notifies debugger that the process address space was changed by one of exec(2)-family syscalls. The i386, amd64, sparc64, sun4v, powerpc and ia64 syscall()s are changed to use syscallenter()/syscallret(). MIPS and arm are not converted and use the mostly unchanged syscall() implementation.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
